Billy Moore shouting 'Queenslander' as he made his way down the tunnel during the 1995 State of Origin series is one of the most iconic moments in Origin history. That series is one of the most iconic of all time.
Eighteen players - "Neville Nobodies" - donned the maroon jersey that year and under the tutelage of Paul 'Fatty' Vautin, pulled off one of the most memorable whitewashes against a stacked New South Wales outfit.
The team was dismissed even before they stepped foot onto the field, but they came together, decided losing wasn't an option and showed true Queensland spirit.
They defied all odds and proved when Queenslanders unite, anything is possible.
Queensland Rugby League is paying homage to those 18 players with the 2025 captain's run jersey, launching today at the 1995 Maroons team reunion and available now via exclusive pre-sale at Maroons Shop.
These first 1995 captain's run jerseys will come with a limited-edition retro ‘All fired up’ poster - a fiery tribute to the marketing campaign of ’95.
Cue the dulcet tones of Pat Benatar.
Take a closer look at the captain's run jersey
The 2025 captain's run jersey isn’t just inspired by history, it embodies it; the stripes on the shoulders, the retro State of Origin emblem, 1995 on the sleeve and the names of all 18 players on the back.

The first of the captain's run jerseys will be seen by the players from the '95 Maroons side as they reunite at the XXXX Brewery and reflect on their experience together.
The jersey isn’t just a tribute, it’s a chance for every Queenslander to wear history, stand with the ‘95 heroes and celebrate what it means to be a Queenslander.
