State of Origin – Queensland Maroons Cameron Smith Signed ‘The Golden Era’ Replica Mini Shield
Queensland have experienced an era of dominance in recent Origin history that is without peer. Under the guidance of one-time playing great Mal Meninga, the Maroons took the field with the confidence they were capable of victory from any point in a game, no matter how irretrievable the situation appeared. The Maroons were instilled with an unwavering self-belief — and under the heat of battle, there were no better on-field generals to lead the chargers than successive skippers Darren Lockyer and Cameron Smith, two of the game’s all-time players, as well as leaders.
This year, the Maroons bade farewell to arguably the greatest player to don the famous jersey. Cam Smith was the driving force behind Queensland’s record breaking streak, and, having bowed out of the representative arena, he leaves behind perhaps the greatest Queensland resumé in the history of State of Origin — one that is unlikely ever to be matched. Perhaps his influence on the Maroons’ dominance is best summed up by coach Kevin Walters — “What he’s done for Queensland and Australia has been something short of a miracle; his performances through that time have been a benchmark for everyone who puts on that maroon jersey in his tenure there.”
