If Maroons fans are fair dinkum, Ben Hunt will never have to buy a beer for himself in a Queensland pub for the rest of his life.
Origin is punctuated by iconic moments and legendary performances, with Hunt searing his name into Queensland’s consciousness when he scored the series clinching try of the 2022 series – complete with his own iconic commentary from his former skipper Cameron Smith yelling “Go Dozer! Gooo! Go! Go!”
