After the Maroons’ comprehensive victory in game one of the three match series, punters have jumped on Queensland outfit to take out Rugby League’s showpiece event.

Game two will be staged on July 24, with game three due to take place on July 15. Currently at IASbet.com, Queensland is at $1.18 to claim bragging rights over its bitter rival and claim the series, while the Blues are listed at $5 – long odds after just one game.

You can get $2.25 for a 2-1 Queensland victory, and identical odds for a 3-0 score-line in the Maroons favour. A 2-1 victory for New South Wales is at $5.

But, given the fact there is such a large gap between matches, it may be too early to rule the Blues’ chances out completely. No team has executed a clean-sweep of a series since New South Wales in 2000, so the $2.25 on that option may be a little under the odds given the fact State-of-Origin is known for its close-nature.

Game two will take place at Sydney’s ANZ Stadium before the teams move to Brisbane’s Suncorp Stadium, with the series hopefully still alive, for the finale.

IASbet.com also offers live betting during half-time of all matches, and odds for game two will be available soon. At present, only series outcomes are available to punters.

The stage is set for an enthralling final two matches.
