The 1993 State of Origin Championships, known formally as the CUB AFL State of Origin championship, was the last Australian rules football series held involving representative teams of all Australian states. It was the first and last such tournament run by the AFL Commission. It was the first tournament to combine territory teams with state teams.
While Victoria and Tasmania and South Australia and Western Australia would play as their own States, New South Wales combined with Australian Capital Territory and Queensland were combined with Northern Territory.[1] The two composite teams gave Queensland and New South Wales the first opportunity to select their teams under State of Origin criteria since the 1988 Bicentennial Carnival, but also meant the end of standalone participation by the two Territories. Aided significantly by the small Northern Territory contingent, it was the first successful tournament featuring a side under the banner of Queensland, which defeated Tasmania to win Section Two.
South Australia defeated Victoria in the section 1 final by 12 points in front of a crowd of 31,792 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
Queensland–Northern Territory defeated Tasmania in the section 2 final by 34 points in front of a crowd of 9,660, at Bellerive Oval.
Format and Rules
All 4 matches of the State of Origin Championships were played under the same rules as that of the 1993 pre season premiership, the Foster's Cup,
with all 4 quarters running for 20 minutes, and time-on added on for scores and for the treating of injured players, and extra time if the scores were level at full time.
