Origin has come back home!

"Queensland, after waiting for four years, for the next 12 months this is yours!"

These words uttered by Queensland captain Darren Lockyer before lifting the State of Origin trophy will undoubtedly go down as one of the most memorable moments in origin history.

Mel Meninga's men came from 14-4 down to win 16-14 over New South Wales, in an electrifying and eventful Origin 3 for 2006. Lockyer capped if all off with an intercept from Brett Hodgson to put the ball in between the posts for the all important try to tie the game. The following conversion game Queensland the win.

What an atmosphere we had at church, as the guys and gal (Tracy we haven't forgotten you) gathered to watch an amazing game. In a sea of maroon fans there were a couple of blues supporters (ie Rick & Ashley). Ahem, ahem, Ash I guess we gonna have to shave off your hair on Sunday haha!

Origin has come to where it belongs, origin has come back to Queensland, origin has come back home!
