Queensland will receive a State of Origin league campaign boost when the Maroons heroes of 1995 are honoured at a reunion lunch in Brisbane on Friday

28 January 2025 - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

Current coach Billy Slater will attend the 30-year celebrations of the Fatty Vautin-mentored side who won via a 3-nil upset during the Super League era.

The Maroons were without 11 of the players from their 1994 Origin outfit, up against Phil Gould's Blues with nine test players.

Slater hopes the move will pay dividends after they lost to New South Wales 2-1 last year.
