In front of the largest Origin crowd in history, the Maroons have thumped the Blues at the MCG in game two of the State of Origin series.
After trailing 12-8 at the break, the Maroons came out firing, launching an all-out attack to down the Blues 44-24, sending the series to a decider for game three in Brisbane.
