Hunt was very dynamic at fullback, copped a few hits to the head though, so hopefully he will be okay.

As an avid viewer of the QCUP, it was a disgraceful performance from a few certain players who should never play for QLD Residents again!

The Intrust Super Premiership NSW Residents side defeated Queensland 30-16 after an explosive second-half performance that blew their opposition away.

Josh Drinkwater earned Channel 9 man of the match honours with a sublime performance at halfback, while Justin Hunt was incredible at the back.

The Blues got out to a dream start, with the opening kick-off of the match being knocked on by Queensland.

Another early Queensland error allowed the NSW boys to build pressure, forcing their opposition to continually defend.

Ken Maumalo then opened the scoring for the Blues after he finished off a picture perfect right-to-left shift that was simply beautiful to watch.

Abraham Papalii went close soon after, charging towards the line and going over, but the video referee supported the decision that he was held up.

Elijah Taylor put his stamp on the match when he recieved a great offload to make a line-break, and his quick play the ball caused an automatic overlap as the ball shifted to Maumalo's wing once more for the big winger to get the ball down.

As both conversions were missed, Queenslands next try to Jahrome Hughes got the deficit back to 8-6.

The Blues immediatly hit back when Asipeli Fine crashed over, before a late Queensland try meant that New South Wales went into half-time leading 14-10.

A Wests Tigers cominbation came in handy to start the second half, with Hunt bursting through the line, drawing the fullback and passing the ball to Drinkwater who was lingering in support.

Maumalo recorded his hat-trick just moments later, despite the video referee taking a long time to confirm the put-down was correct.

Jordan Drew believed he had a try shortly afterwoods, but he was ever so slightly in front of the kicker and was ruled offside.

After another missed chance, the try of the afternoon came through interchange forward Dylan Kelly, who burned defenders to run the length of the field and put down the match-sealing try.

Queensland scored a late consolation try, but it was all New South Wales at Langlands Park, with the Blues flying home with the shield.

NSW registered a commanding 30-16 victory over QLD in Sunday's Residents clash at Langlands Park in Brisbane.

QLD started the match very flat and NSW capitalised, leading from start to finish in what was the first win for the side in this fixture since 2013.

New Zealand Warriors winger Ken Maumalo starred for NSW, scoring a hat-trick of tries in a performance that will no doubt have him pushing for first grade selection.

Queensland had their chances, but the game was won by NSW at the start of each half, with the homes side making countless errors in the first 15 minutes of each.

Up 14-10 at the break NSW started the second half on fire, scoring off their first set as fullback Justin Hunt broke through the line to gift halfback and Man of the Match Josh Drinkwater a try under the posts that gave NSW a 20-10 lead after 41 minutes.

Maumalo secured his hat-trick moments later, going over untouched in the corner in the 46th minute to make it 24-10.

After a dour period of the game, NSW interchange forward Dylan Kelly pounced on a Queensland error to run 90 metres and score a try that sealed the win for the New South Welshman. Five-eighth Shaun Nona made no mistake with the conversion to leave the score at 30-10 with 19 minutes to go.

Queensland's woes continued, losing centre Aaron Whitchurch for the match with a knee injury.

Moments later, Queensland added some respect to the scoreboard with five-eighth Cameron Cullen finding halfback Darren Nicholls with a classy cross-field chip. Nicholls converted his own try to reduce the margin to 14 but that was as close as they got.

Errors cost Queensland early, with two handling errors in the first three minutes – including a knock on off the kick-off from their captain Cullen – leading to the first points of the game.

Maumalo crossed in the 4th minute after a slick backline move gave the 21-year-old the space to score in the corner and give his side a 4-0 lead.

Maumalo doubled his tally in the 11th minute after a beautiful cut-out ball from Drinkwater found the New Zealand born winger in acres of space – the score 8-0.

Fullback Jahrome Hughes hit back for Queensland in the 21st minute to make it 8-6, a score that flattered the Queenslanders' poor start to the match.

Hughes copped a stray knee to the head from Nona in the process of scoring the try. The hit knocked the promising fullback out cold and he was ruled out for the rest of the contest – triggering a backline reshuffle.

NSW second-row forward Asipeli Fine took advantage of the unorganised Queensland backline, slicing through a weak defensive line to score in the 24th minute. Nona slotted the conversion from near the sideline to give his side a 14-6 lead.

Cullen showed the class that has seen him play NRL for the Gold Coast Titans this year, finding second-row forward Jack Svendsen in the 32nd minute with a classy short ball that put him over for a four-pointer. The score 14-10 as half-time approached.

I'm assuming that he does play for a Qld based side, I did see him score a neat try as well!.
 
I know they play in the NSW state cup, but how can Auckland players represent NSW residents team?
 
Jeez and I complain about my commute. Maumalo must have it bad residing in NSW and travelling to training in Auckland every day.

Had to logon to praise this post as it gave me a chuckle. A thumbs up just didn't seem adequate.
