In this second and final instalment of our 1995 Origin 30-Year Anniversary Special, Trevor Gillmeister, Billy Moore, and Ben Ikin return to take us inside one of the most courageous and emotional victories in Maroons history — the Game III triumph at Lang Park.
With the series already secured, Queensland entered Game III battered, bruised, and still written off by the experts. What followed was a gritty, defiant performance that completed a remarkable 3–0 clean sweep and cemented this team’s place in rugby league folklore.
In this episode, the boys reflect on:
- Gillmeister’s legendary effort to play after checking himself out of hospital
- The brutal exchanges and explosive all-in brawls
- Ben Ikin’s breakout moment and first Origin try at just 18 years old
- Jason Smith’s masterclass, Bartrim’s consistency, and Lam’s brilliance
- The brotherhood, belief, and emotion that powered the ‘95 Maroons
This was more than just a series win — it was a cultural moment that reshaped Queensland’s Origin identity.
