ADAM Mogg knows a thing or two about rescue missions. Spool back to 2006 and the Queensland Origin team were forced to embark on a desperate search for backline options after injury wiped out star centre Greg Inglis. In his first series as Maroons coach, Mal Meninga issued an SOS for the uncapped Mogg. The

YES, Mal Meninga would one day like to coach the Kangaroos. But don’t measure him up for a green and gold tracksuit just yet.

“RUGBY league was the winner”. For so long, it has just been an overworked sporting cliché. But the all-Queensland NRL grand final between the Cowboys and Broncos showed that sometimes clichés, and sporting dreams, can come true. Canberra’s maiden premiership win over Balmain in 1989 has always been held up as the benchmark for grand

RESPECTED journalist and former coach Roy Masters summed it up in his column in the Sydney Morning Herald: “As the past decade of State of Origin matches has demonstrated, God is a Queenslander”.

2015-12-07T07:03:11+10:00August 11th, 2015|All, NRL|

MAROONS coach Mal Meninga has hailed Justin Hodges as one of the greatest centres Queensland has produced after the Broncos skipper announced his retirement from rugby league.
