After a humiliating defeat in the 2000 State of Origin series, Queensland turned to legendary coach Wayne Bennett to restore state pride. Bennett's bold move to select an entirely new Maroons team paid off with a victory in the opening game of the 2001 series.

However, the Blues fought back, leveling the series with a dominant performance in game two. With the decider looming, Queensland needed a spark.

Enter Allan Langer.

In this episode of Stories of Origin, we revisit the dramatic and unexpected return of Alfie Langer for the 2001 State of Origin.

Allan Langer’s playing legacy still looms large over the Broncos.

The clubs Inaugural halfback in 1988 would become their first premiership captain in ‘92, a title they defended in ‘93.

He’d go on to lead a team rated among the greatest club outfits ever assembled to the Super League premiership of ‘97, and in ‘98 they reigned supreme again in a reunited 20 team competition.

It’s a career so profound that Langer is immortalised in bronze with his own statue at Lang Park alongside fellow QLD champions, Lewis, Lockyer, Beetson and Meninga.

A Rugby League halfback is the beating heart of a football team, part drummer, part lead guitarist, but every seven needs a six. 

In the case of Alan Langer, his illustrious wingmen are as much a part of his story as himself. 

On this episode of Stories of Origin ‘Alfie’, we shine a light on Langer's leading men, playmaking champions Wally Lewis and Kevin Walters.
