Speaker 1 (00:03):
Queensland have added another chapter to the Maron State of
Origin folklore, stunning New South Wales with a twenty four
to twelve in the Game three decider in Sydney to
reclaim that shield. It was a brave at historic series
win for Captain Cameron Munster, reeling from the recent loss
of his father.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
An arena built for the brave, for rugby league's greatest rivalry,
and a winner take all decider. A high shot from
Stephen Crichton handed Queensland their first points. Maron's debutante Gemmt
Shibasaka laid on the first try. Shibasaki story, New South

(00:46):
Wales's left edge fell asleep and Queensland pounced again. N
Stop father was the last part, just like in Game two,
Queensland would be when he points up at halftime sly South.

(01:06):
The Blues started the second half with relentless pressure on
the Moron's line, but Queensland were resolute. Before the Blues
finally broke through.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Corton's going to get it.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
Maybe this is the.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
Four, but it was too little, too late for New
South Wales. Wally Lewis medallist Tom didn't sealing the series win.
Billy Slater with three wins from four series as coach
Brian's last minute try lessening the blow for the Blues

(01:46):
as Cameron Munster, just days after losing his father, led
the Maroons to two wins on the road after losing
Game one on home soil the first time in the
series forty five year history.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
Carlton coach Michael Voss wants the AFL to come down
hard on a footy fan who's accused of making a
violent threat against his life.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
I expect a pretty forthright response. I was dismissive at first,
but you know there's a flow on effect. The first
thing you always think about is the person beside you,
or the family member or the team.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
It's believed the person suspected of sending the threat is
not a Carlton member, but if they are, they could
face a lengthy ban from attending games. More than one
hundred parents are considering legal action against Melbourne childcare centers
after a worker was charged with seventy child abuse offenses.
Melbourne legal firm Arnold, Thomas and Becker are preparing to

(02:47):
represent the parents, saying the level of access accused man
Joshua Dale Brown allegedly had to children was a major
red flag. A childcare worker who formerly worked with Brown
said staff shortages at the Melton Center allowed round time
alone with multiple children. Meantime, Queensland will become the first

(03:09):
state to implement mandatory child safety training for early childhood educators. Currently,
workers undertake mandatory child protection training, but this new program
will specifically teach them how to spot patterns of abuse
or predatory behavior in a childcare context. Treasurer Jim Chalmers
is trying to pass the law that would reportedly allow

(03:31):
him to modify super tax rules after the original bill
is approved by Parliament. Labour wants to introduce an unrealized
capital gains tax for a superannuation accounts three million dollars
and above. Doctor Chalmers could be able to adjust the
plan after seeing how much money it's bringing in. Legal
experts believe that could be unconstitutional. South Australia has been

(03:57):
smashed by wild winds and high tides, seeing its wet
stay in eighteen months. Residents also suffering a second wintery
blast in as many days. So Juna and Nile Bay
on the Air Peninsula saw two point two meter tides
wind gusts of up to ninety kilometers an hour were
also felt at Streaky Bay.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
More.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
Welcome rain is expected today as the system moves East
Sydney on alert for damaging winds. A bumbling boot thief
needs to rethink his crime career after stealing fifty three
right shoes from a Brisbane store. The foolish robber put
his proverbial foot in it when he filled a suitcase

(04:35):
with stolen boots from a sale table, leaving behind all
the left shoes. The owner of the Kenmore store said
the hall was worth fourteen thousand dollars if the shoes
weren't on special checking Thursdays. Whether now Brisbane twenty four
degrees mostly sunny, Sydney seventeen and windy, mostly sunny, Canber
