Latest News About Women's State Of Origin

Here’s the latest on the Women’s State of Origin:

• 2025 series: New South Wales won the series 2–1, defeating Queensland in the decisive game and clinching the title. This followed a strong performance in wet conditions at Sydney’s Allianz Stadium in game two, where NSW secured the series with a 26–6 win in front of home fans. NSW’s 2025 triumph marked a back-to-back achievement after their 2024 success.[5]
• 2026 status: The 2026 series had a game in Newcastle (Game 1) as part of the ongoing annual tradition, with ongoing coverage of the series in 2026 media and broadcasts noted by contemporary outlets. The open-ended 2026 results are still to be completed, with fixtures continuing the Origin rivalry.[3]
• Historical context: Women’s State of Origin began in 1999 and has since become a marquee annual rugby league event, with the 2024 series played across multiple venues including Newcastle and Townsville, and 2023–2025 editions featuring NSW and Queensland in tight contests. The 2024 series included a three-game format with a decider in Townsville.[2][4][7]

Illustration: The NSW-QLD rivalry in recent years has produced several close games and dramatic finishes, such as NSW clinching the 2025 title in a game two bid under wet conditions at a major Sydney venue, while 2026 fixtures continue to showcase the same federation energy and fan enthusiasm.[3][5]
