Fatty’s Miracle: 30 Years Since Queensland’s Greatest Origin Upset
About this episode
It was 1995 - the height of the Super League war. As the ARL blacklisted players aligned with Super League, Queensland was left with a team of virtual unknowns and a first-time coach, Paul ‘Fatty’ Vautin.
No one expected them to win. Facing a New South Wales side stacked with international stars, the Maroons were written off before a ball was kicked.
