This year marks 30 years since the iconic 1995 Queensland State of Origin victory, where first-time coach Paul Vautin led the team to a clean sweep.

“We almost gelled from day one or from minute one, actually, and, Fatty and Choppy, and that got the boys together and, to go and win against all odds.”

“It was a great occasion,” Teevan continued.
