I HAVE spoken to every single NSW player this week and they have this message for you, the fans.

Be loud, be proud.

Stand with us through every second of tonight’s big match. Make every tackle with us, take every hit-up, catch every bomb.

Enjoy the highs and support us through the lows.

The 84,000 fans who attend the match — and the millions who support us throughout NSW and Australia — are as much apart of this side as the 17 players.

I know the players feed off your support.

The fans have been incredible. For eight years now they haven’t had too much to cheer about but they remain rock-solid. They mean the world to this team.

I hear there will be 17,000 Batchy’s Blues at the northern end of ANZ Stadium this evening. They will be a spectacular sight.

Everywhere we have gone since this Origin series started we have been made to feel welcome and special.

This state is craving success and I just hope we are the team that can deliver it.

Believe me, we have done everything we can to make sure our preparation has been smooth and meticulous.

Our Coffs Harbour camp was great yet again.

Up there we were able to escape the media pressure for a few days. The tranquil setting at the Novotel Pacific Bay Resort was perfect for us and we got through plenty of hard work.

Having said that, there is nothing quite like arriving back in Sydney days before a State of Origin match.

This city is rugby league. You can feel the atmosphere and tension building each day.

We cannot promise a win tonight. I wish I could.

But rugby league is an unpredictable beast and, obviously, we are under no illusions about this great Queensland side.

They will be stinging about being beaten in their own backyard in Origin I.

The likes of Cam Smith, Greg Inglis and Billy Slater won’t take the loss lying down. They will be hurting.

This will be a tough game. It will, like game one, go down to the final few minutes, maybe even the final few seconds. That is what makes Origin so amazing.

Origin I was a magnificent occasion. Some in the media described our win as epic.

The NSW players left Suncorp Stadium that night busted, battered and bruised.

Somehow they lifted their backsides from tackle to tackle, set to set, to deny Queensland.

The Maroons came at us in the final 10 minutes but the bond and spirit in our camp, I believe, helped us hang on for a famous win.

I am sure the loyal NSW fans were in the back of every player’s mind in those dying, tense moments.

TITLE: Walters confident in DCE

We need you tonight. The players want to feel your energy. Let’s make ANZ Stadium as intimidating as we can for Queensland.

The Maroons say their fans are more passionate. Rubbish.

We need to hear you roar and hear you chant. You are in our camp.

Everyone is feeding off the spirit of the state. Origin is about playing for the people and the state you represent.

The players cannot guarantee you a win. But we can promise one thing.

You will be proud of this side for years to come.

Go the Blues.
