No matter who you go for, This QLD effort was the most guttsiest, amazing victory in the history of our great game. A true champion rugby league team and every player in that game went into that special place inside themselves to play above and beyond... Wow!!!!

[@DanmarskyAus]

Well said Johnno👍🏻 Yes this game certainly contained countless efforts of players digging deep into that special place where legends are born👌🏻🏉

[@brettwilkinson9529]

That Queensland team of the late 1980's was simply Unbeatable. Best team in history.

This should be shown to every Qld team in Origin camp. Simply amazing courage and desire to win. NSW just don’t get Origin.

The props of that era, Bella and Dowling, Sam Backo and the likes.. had to play full games under tough conditions...they need bigger wraps for mine...they were amazing...

[@chrisr5786]

This is the reason why Wally Lewis is the best player the game has ever seen.

[@DanmarskyAus]

Yes mate! I feel very fortunate to have seen him play in person during the 80s and early 90s.

@@matthewduncan3053 Hi mate. Trying to become monetized for all the hard work and time the channel takes , and I had to remove the videos unfortunately due to regulations.

[@SuperBollus]

I am watching this in South Australia, a state not knowledgable to SOO. As a former front rower, of a shit house standard, can i congratulate Martin Bella for his amazing effort. In late years his impact fell off but holy crap his impact was huge this series. Thanks Dan.

[@timedison6687]

Yeah Bella was good. He could hold his own down at the old Steyne Hotel in Manly, too!

[@avrahamgoyenstein5117]

That tap and pass from Langer at the beginning... I'll say this again. Langer is easily the best halfback I've ever seen play, no doubt.

[@ashleighcruickshank345]

Amazing that in 89 they still had jobs outside footy

[@darylkanofski9327]

Have seen replays of this game but this video is by far the best and the win by Qld was incredible

[@timedison6687]

Well done mate. Excellent doco. I wish there were more good League docos like this.

Hearing Mike Raymonds voice is like hearing an old mate that you have not seen for years. What an icon he was.

[@Mars-lp8yd]

History kind of repeated itself last night. Ahhh that old Queensland spirit does it again!

[@casshendry]

Great players in both teams. State of Origin is the best spectacle of rugby league on offer in the world. Awesome brave effort Queensland and King Wally. Awesome smash tackle Trevor alias " the axe. " You're only a little fella but have a big heart and a ton of guts indicative of the Australian Spirit. Respect to all the state of origin players, past, present and future. All men of great faith, talent, humility and team spirit. From a Kiwi down under. Kia ora ra / thank you.

[@joelezekielivura9651]

My dad brought home a record of the game. We had not a TV set at home so he had to get it from one of my uncle who works with a computer company, thats what Dad said, anyway I admired the team in Maroon.. Watching this vedio again, brought tears to my eyes... ❤️ 💯

[@joelezekielivura9651]

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and all your family..... Guys, the world is not as good as it used to be, its good we all use these type of platform to share our vews and and also to always reflect on the past... As they say, history is the foundation of the future, so always have time to look back to the past, it motivates, encourages and it drives you a step forward to your future... We all come from different cultural backgrounds but we were just bonded by the vedio of that 89 SoO game and the message the Maroons team showed us is purely clear........ Unity..... ❤️ 💯 🙏

[@damionnefelsch6546]

I also remember Wally copping it for being too old to play, his vindication, that try through the guts of the defence and his victory salute, one of triumph. I went to keebra Park high and Wally often came to give motivational speeches to our players. We were reeeeeeal good in the late eighties.

[@dazhwood]

Never EVER underestimate a slightly overweight, balding moustachioed man a few months shy of 30 ........ especially when he’s a FUCKING LEGEND #bluesfollowertoo ❤️👊🏻#THEKing the definition of Captain/Leader

[@christopherdale8201]

I'll never forget this game I'll take it to my grave game 2 1989 the amount of good players we lost in that first half and withstood the NSW fight but we won and the Wally Lewis try is the one that stands out all time it's simply QLD best and most famous Victory of all time. PS great tries to Kerrod Walters and Michael Hancock.

[@DanmarskyAus]

Yeah mate all products of QRL Junior Footy. Wally from Valleys, Kerrod Walter's from Ipswich Swifts and Michael Hancock from Toowoomba

[@johnohill463]

Same here mate. I'll never forget that game and that try is burned in my memory from the time of the great Gilly tackle to Hagan passing the ball to Wally Lewis to that angle he ran and scoring the try. As a former player of 8 years, I was 18 when this game was played and I remember it looking like it was happening in slow motion. Only the greatest players are capable of having that type of a brilliant sense of timing. I've seen a few but Wally Lewis was by far the greatest all round and most gifted player I've even seen by a long shot.

[@christopherdale8201]

@@johnohill463 the real forgotten Hero out of that game was Michael Hagen he showed the true Queenslander sprint and took it up when Alf Langer got injured same with Gary Coyne,Dale sharer, Trevor Gillmister all step up when Alf, Meninga,fatty, Lindner and Hancock got injured.

[@johnohill463]

@@christopherdale8201 Yes mate!! An amazing effort indeed...

[@TombstoneHeart]

Big matches are won by big, quality forwards. If you want to know how good Queensland's win was in this game, take a look at the high quality NSW forward pack - and they lost! There was something very, very special about that Qld team.

[@riseofasinkingwarrior490]

Bravest victory so far... 2023 game 1 could give this one a serious run. 10 minutes, down by 2, unfair sinbin, HIA injury, players out of position. It's a very similar position. Hard to say which one is the harder win. Both are very strong.

[@darylkanofski9327]

Yes that was good but this game of 1989 game 2 for me is the best

[@philipgreenaway5631]

Going by today’s rules QLD would have lost Gilly to a HIA, possibly Tony Currie. This is a favourite of mine. We just kept coming back despite the immense casualties.

[@djmeiklejohn]

That NSW team weren't mugs either. Brandy Alexander, John Cartwright, Brad Clyde, Garry Jack, Gavin Miller, ET. Also a young Laurie Daley. Chicka Ferguson was also one of my favourites when I was a kid. Wouldn't have made a difference here but I still reckon Ricky Walford deserved a run.

[@faronanderson2536]

When Arthur Beetson and Wally Lewis say this is Queensland's greatest and most famous State of Origin victory, I better believe that this is the whole truth and nothing but the truth!

[@dzenanahasic2849]

Good watch all these old vids

[@thevilemaxim9039]

Watching in 2020 after listening to the Matty John's podcast.

[@christopherdale8201]

For a QLD kid of the 80's that 8 game winning streak by QLD from game 2 1987-game 3 1989 to me is still record that gets forgotten in the modern era but I will always remember that era particularly game 2 87 to 2 89. I went to game 2 88 because I was their when Wally got sent to the bin and the beer cans went on the field.

[@DanmarskyAus]

This was the QLD referee's 1st SoO. Oh and FYI he still holds the record for most SoO refereed by a Queenslander. 10 games, last 1 was game 2 of 1997. And a bit of trivia the last time a Queenslander refereed a SoO was game 3 of 1997.

Great work once again mate! It could have used some more blues players point of view I felt to add some drama. And it could've been 2 players down at the end with Linder going off near the end after playing most of the game on a broken leg. It was a great victory and It was great to see the crowd in N.S W. finally showing the respect and appreciation that Wally Lewis and the QLD team well deserved. Very well done. Kind Regards. ... John ....

[@DanmarskyAus]

Thanks mate. Yeah, I wish there was more footage of Blues players talking about this match...none out there, but the news reports after Game 1 and pre Game 2 gave an in depth NSW perspective on their mentality heading in to Game 2. Cheers Johnno👍🏻
