It may be a dead rubber on paper, but rest assured, both teams are eager to win a win tonight in Brisbane.
For the Maroons, there is the departure of the last four man "- Billy Slater
Not only is Slater's fight tonight last on board, he also has the chance to lead the team as captain after Greg Inglis was ruled out with a thumb injury.
But The Kid does not call him fate – in fact, when he had it, he would have Inglis "It's a great honor, only 13 men have had the opportunity to lead this great team and this great state and I'm very proud to be the captain of the Queensland Chestnut," said Slater.
"(But) I'd rather have the big guy in the centers that play next to me."
For the Blues, they desperately want to put the last nail in the coffin of Queensland's dominance over the last decade with their first bleaching in 18 years, having already won the series with victories in games one and two. [19659006] But NSW coach Brad Fittler takes nothing for granted, while respecting the fact that the outfit may no longer have I like Johnathan Thurston, Cameron Smith or Cooper Cronk, it's still chestnuts.
"I do not know now why they are so hard," Fittler told Nine's Sunday Footy Show.
"I think pride plays a big part in that." In particular, going home like Queensland, they would not be in that position too many times. "
