In the wake of the devastating attacking display by the NSW Blues in Origin I in Townsville, comparisons between the 2021 backline and those of golden eras past were both inevitable and flattering.
They may have only 46 Origin games between them but the sizzling seven who made a mess of the Maroons in the series opener played with the sort of poise and composure that suggests they ll have many years together to add to that number.
Inspirational leader James Tedesco was playing in his 14th Origin, and all things being equal he s got a decent shot at surpassing Brad Fittler s Blues appearances record of 31 games.
