Charleville becomes ‘Kurtsville’ as hometown hero Kurt Capewell plays in State of Origin decider
The south-west Queensland town of Charleville will transform into ‘Kurtsville’ today, in honour of hometown hero Kurt Capewell who will play in his first State of Origin decider tonight.
Key points:
The Charleville product made his Origin debut in game one of this year’s series.
Capewell made his presence in the team known in the series opener, setting up Queensland’s first try after 48 minutes with no points on the scoreboard.
With the Maroons down 10–0 following halftime, the utility player broke past a flimsy tackle attempt by Blues player Clinton Gutherson and took a punt on an awkward kick which landed in the hands of fellow debutant AJ Brimson, who got it over the line.
