For the first time ever, the women’s State of Origin will be broadcast on Nine’s main channel just one day after the men’s round.

Men’s Origin is set to kick off tomorrow night in Adelaide, and the following night, Queensland will go head-to-head with New South Wales yet again in the first of two matches for the women’s Origin.

Maroons women’s team captain, Ali Brigginshaw, joined Peter Psaltis and Andrew McCullough on 4BC Wide World of Sports to discuss preparations before the game.
