Attendance: 41,878

Series decider. Ricky Stuart's 14th-minute try is the only scoring minute confirmed across the entire 1992 and 1993 batch. Tim Brasher came on as an emergency goal-kicker after Rod Wishart's regular kicking duties were unavailable/injured. Queensland scored no try, its 4 points coming from two Mal Meninga penalty goals. Queensland's #12/#17 assignment (Mike McLean vs. Gary Coyne) is lower-confidence than the rest of this lineup, reflecting a source inconsistency around a possible mid-game interchange. Queensland's own player-of-the-series award for 1992 (era-name 'Wally Lewis Medal,' now retrospectively the Ron McAuliffe Medal) went to Allan Langer.
