DCE Left Starry-Eyed by Maroons Coaching Super Panel

Queensland skipper Daly Cherry-Evans says belief in his Origin squad is sky-high thanks to the crack team of staff assembled since Kevin Walters’ departure to the Broncos.

With this year’s series kicking off next Wednesday in Adelaide ‘DCE’ has told The Rush Hour with Dobbo that this year’s side has an incredible learning opportunity before them.
