New South Wales and Queensland have finalised their squads for
Game II of the Holden State of Origin series on Sunday at Optus Stadium in Perth.
The Blues have selected two Origin debutants – with Newcastle’s
Daniel Safiti and Melbourne’s Dale Finucane receiving the call-up from Coach Brad
Fittler.
RLPA Directors James Maloney and Wade Graham have earned
recalls to the side, along with Dragons enforcer Tariq Sims and Eels flyer Blake
Ferguson.
Maroons Coach Kevin Walters has made two changes due to injuries
to Joe Ofahengaue and Jai Arrow – with Tim Glasby and Jarrod Wallace returning
to the fold.
Christian Welch, Edrick Lee and Corey Norman were named as
part of an extended squad for Queensland.
