New South Wales are using abuse they've received on social media as motivation for tonight's Origin decider.
Ryan Hoffman, James Tamou, Trent Merrin and Brent Hodkinson all featured in a short video, reading out comments from Queensland fans on Facebook and Twitter.
Hoffman reads out two tweets which say: "Origin
decider. Let's beat these t*****s" and "NSW are grubs can't wait for QLD to flog them" before thanking Queenslanders for the motivation.
James Tamou and Brent Hodkinson both read out tweets that were directly aimed at them and Trent Merrin reads out a Facebook comment which refers to New South Wales as "losers"
To fire The Blues up, they've decided to use QLD's words against them.
