The Maroons are out for revenge against the Blues in State of Origin Game 2. We get the inside scoop from rugby league legend Wally Lewis on how Queensland can bounce back after their Game 1 loss. Plus, Mitch shares a hilarious story about a movie extra accidentally creating one of the most iconic scenes in Gladiator.
The Maroons are fired up and ready to even the State of Origin series tonight after falling to NSW in the opener. We chat with Wally Lewis, the greatest Origin player of all time, about Queensland's chances of victory in Game 2. Wally gives his take on new captain Cameron Munster, how to stop Blues winger Spencer Leniu's trash talk, and why the Maroons need to set the tone early.
2:55 - Wally Lewis shares how nervous he was becoming Queensland captain for the first time and how he sees similarities with Cameron Munster taking on the role tonight.
5:20 - Wally says the Maroons need to "introduce themselves" to Spencer Leniu to remind him he's still new to Origin.
7:40 - Wally believes the team will be motivated to win for coach Billy Slater after criticism from Blues prop Aaron Woods.
Mitch reveals one of the most memorable scenes from the movie Gladiator was never actually part of the script. A random extra smoking a cigarette started walking through a wheat field, caught the director's eye, and ended up becoming the iconic opening shot with some clever editing.
12:20 - The dinosaur sounds in Jurassic Park include tortoise mating calls slowed down. Let's keep it family friendly here, Mitch.
