Mitch Moses has declared his career-best night in Melbourne is already ancient history, with the NSW State of Origin halfback on the brink of joining rugby league royalty.
Moses can become just the third Blues halfback to win an Origin decider in Brisbane on Wednesday, joining Immortal Andrew Johns and NRL hall-of-famer Ricky Stuart.
Moses' heroics for the Blues in Origin II marked the high point of his career so far, with Johns labelling the No.7's game as the best he had ever seen him play.
But Moses has no interest in looking back at his efforts in the Blues' 38-18 win, insistent it is now irrelevant ahead of Wednesday night.
"You take confidence, but it means nothing," Moses said.
"I have to go up there and do a job in game three, then you can talk about those things. It means nothing at the moment.
"That game is done. That's past us. There are things I can learn from that game and get better and take it into this game.
"But we have to do a job, it's as simple as that."
Moses also has no interest in considering the elite company he would join with a win on Wednesday night.
In total, eight Blues halfbacks have played in 13 deciders in Brisbane, with the only two NSW victories coming in 1994 and 2005.
"We've got to sort out (the win) first, then we will speak about (the elite group)," Moses said.
"It's a great opportunity, not only for myself but all 17 players.
"If we can go up there and do a job and win the series, it is massive.
"It's all good speaking about it ... but we have to do it with our actions."
Moses' kicking game is likely to prove the most crucial in the decider, with the Eels halfback now comparable with the likes of Nathan Cleary, Adam Reynolds and Queensland rival Daly Cherry-Evans.
His kicking was superb in Melbourne, and the 29-year-old is arguably in career-best form despite Parramatta's shocking NRL season.
The No.7 is also not short on advisers ahead of Wednesday night.
He has worked with Johns at the Eels, while his uncle Benny Elias was part of the Blues team who won the 1994 decider in Brisbane.
"I speak to Joey (Johns) pretty often. He is always full of advice for me. He is a big help and has been a big influence on my career," Moses said.
"(Elias) is full of advice as well, he will definitely let you know about it. He is one of the best hookers to play the game.
"It's about just backing yourself. Nailing the big moments in those games is probably the biggest thing. We have to do that.
"It's more just how to handle the game and things like that. It's pretty cliche with the things they say, but hearing it from them means a lot more."
