Western Australia get first crack at Victoria in an Origin clash we haven’t seen in decades, and you can expect genuine heat from the opening bounce. WA will feed off the home crowd early, but over four quarters this feels like a depth and composure test — and that’s where the Big V usually shine.
How this game shapes up
WA are built for bursts. Speed off stoppage, chaos inside 50 and moments of brilliance that can flip a game in minutes.
Victoria are the opposite. Structured, layered and stacked with midfield rotations that don’t drop in quality. When momentum swings, they’re the side more likely to steady.
WA will have their patches. But if this becomes a four-quarter grind, Victoria’s balance should take over late.
Best Bets
Victoria 1–39 Winning Margin
WA at home will bring heat and energy, so a blowout feels unlikely. But across the full game, Victoria’s depth through the middle and ability to control tempo gives them the edge in a competitive result.
Toby Greene 2+ Goals
Origin suits opportunists, and Greene is elite at sniffing out half chances. In a game that should have repeat entries and pressure inside 50, he’s well placed to cash in on loose balls and quick turnovers.
Luke Jackson Anytime Goalscorer
Jackson rotating through ruck and forward gives him multiple looks at goal. With the home crowd behind him and WA likely surging in patches, he’s a strong chance to hit the scoreboard.
What could go wrong?
Origin chaos. With players stripped from club structures, cohesion might matter less than instinct. If WA’s speed overwhelms Victoria early and the crowd gets involved, the script flips quickly.
There’s also the unknown factor. First Origin clash in years means volatility — and volatility is never friendly for margin plays.
