Big news on the morning of game one.
The NSW Blues have cancelled the usual media interview with an assistant coach.
In previous years it was left to the likes of Greg Alexander to chat to media on game day, but reporters won’t get anyone speaking today.
It follows the pre-game press conference also being shaken up yesterday.
The Maroons and Blues usually face the media together the day before the game, but this year held separate press conferences.
Big moves from Madge Maguire.
