Queensland clinch their 5th series with dominant win.

Queensland have sealed a record fifth straight origin series 34-6 thrashing of New South Wales at Suncorp in front of 52,452 fans.

Queensland were on top from the get go with the kick-off trapping New South Wales deep in their own half and they built on this in the fifth minute when Greg Inglis took three defenders over with him to score. They continued on in the 14th minute with Israel Falou making use of the defenders coming up and diving over for Queensland's second.



The game got a bit restless after that with some small fights happening with the biggest happening after Luke O'Donnell spear tackled Darius Boyd and was lucky to stay on the field. Queensland failed once with a forward pass ruling on Billy Slater but they couldn't stop them the second time with Thurston more desperate for the ball and offloading to Darius Boyd to make it 16-0 at the break.



It didn't stop after the break with Queensland just piling on the points with Willie Tonga grabbing the first after the break followed by Darren Lockyer throwing a great pass to Israel Falou to pick up his second. Cooper Cronk scooted over from dummy-half to make the scoreline an intimidating 34-0 still with 15 minutes to go.

The game degenerated from there with New South Wales beaten and bruised, Queensland trying some skillful plays which didn't come off but New South Wales got some consolation right on the 80th minute when Mitchell Pearce laid on a nice inside ball for Brett White to prevent New South Wales from the duck egg.



Darren Lockyer was the star in possibly his last origin series and everyone played well for Queensland while New South Wales have to look for something for game three.
