A look inside Maroons camp with Coach Slater - The Billy Slater Podcast

Queensland coach Billy Slater joins us from inside Maroons camp ahead of State of Origin Game One, tackling the biggest selection calls and storylines dominating rugby league.

Billy opens up on the huge fullback debate between Reece Walsh and Kalyn Ponga, why experience mattered in key positions, and how the Maroons landed on one of the most talked-about squads in recent Origin history.

There’s also discussion around the six debutants and the balance of the bench under the new Origin rules, leadership within camp.

Billy also reflects on selection pressure and what fans might be underestimating about this Queensland team heading into the series opener.
