The feud between Billy Slater and Michael Maguire continues to simmer after the pair faced off for the first time since the NSW coach accused Queensland of living in “glass houses”. Maguire’s insinuation that the Maroons were hypocrites for crying foul over the Blues’ heavy-handed treatment of Reece Walsh in Game I, was a hot topic at the pre-game press conference for State of Origin II at Melbourne’s Federation Square on Tuesday.
