State of Origin: What time does Game 2 start?

When and where is Origin Game 2?

The second - and potentially deciding - game of the 2023 Origin series is being held at Suncorp Stadium.

The Brisbane venue has hosted the most Origin clashes of any ground - Queensland coming out on top in 38 of the 59 games.

Last year, the Maroons clinched the series with a 22-12 victory in the decider at Suncorp.

What channel is State of Origin on?

All three 2023 Origin matches will be broadcast exclusively on Channel 9.
