Mark Levy has called out the “nitpicking” of State of Origin referee Gerard Sutton in game three.

The ref called 14 six-agains last night, making for an “infuriating” stop-start first half, Mark said.

“Gerard Sutton should book himself in to see a physio after waving his arm in the air that many times last night.

“By jumping early … [the Maroons] forced the referee into a dilemma.

“The Queenslanders used it to their advantage last night, and Sutton fell for it.”
