‘Tough place to live’: Michael Maguire wants his NSW Blues to represent entire state

Incoming New South Wales State of Origin coach Michael Maguire wants the Blues to embrace all regions of the state as he brings in a new era while helping promote Game II of the 2024 series to be played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

The Blues are under immense pressure to win the three-game extravaganza.

“With this current playing group we’ve talked a lot about building something that NSW can be really proud of, wherever you are in NSW,” Maguire said to the media scrum in Melbourne.

“We as a group see NSW as a tough place to live at times so let’s represent that.

“And let’s represent the good times too like in the early 1990s when we had such a good group of players.”
