New South Wales have clinched the women's State of Origin series in dramatic fashion, courtesy of a last-gasp try by Isabelle Kelly just moments after Queensland looked to have scored a match-winning try of their own.
Kelly crossed in the final minute to given the Blues a 20-14 win in front of a record women's Origin crowd of 11,321 at GIO Stadium in Canberra to clinch the series.
It marks New South Wales' first series win in the interstate rivalry since 2019 after Queensland won in the past two years.
