In rugby league: Queensland Maroons try machine Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow has a message that will send shivers down the spine of NSW fans: he's just getting started.  
 
It's a concerning thought for Blues supporters after the flying Dolphin scored a hat-trick in Wednesday night's 38-10 victory in ORIGIN I.

Tabuai-Fidow is looking to do even better when the Maroons look to close out the series in Melbourne on 26 June. 

Meanwhile, in the historic Women’s State of Origin Series, the Maroons forced an ORIGIN III decider against the NSW Sky Blues after a heart-stopping 11-10 win in very wet conditions in front of a record-breaking 25,872 fans at McDonald Jones Stadium, Newcastle last night.

Queensland didn’t lead all game until Lauren Brown slotted a field goal from 25M out to edge the Maroons ahead with two minutes left on the clock.

In Football: The Italians have been placed in arguably the toughest group, and will start the defence of their EURO 2024 title with a game against Albania next Friday 14 June, before massive games against Spain six days later, and another tough task against Croatia on Monday 24 June.
