smh.com.au [$]

The New South Wales Blues are aiming to complete a historic 3-0 series sweep against Queensland in the State of Origin, with the final game scheduled for Thursday. The Blues have already secured the series victory after winning the first two matches. Back-rower Yasmin Clydsdale and the Blues are focused on achieving the unprecedented whitewash, emphasizing the legacy of being the first team to accomplish this feat in women's State of Origin. The team is motivated to secure the win at Newcastle's McDonald Jones Stadium. The Blues' pursuit of the clean sweep comes after the men's team took five attempts to achieve the same. Clydsdale, at 31, is inspired by older players and is motivated to continue playing as long as she enjoys the game.
