Coach Billy Slater has selected his side to face NSW in the 2022 Origin decider match at a sold-out Suncorp Stadium on Wednesday 13 July in Brisbane.
Cameron Munster and Harry Grant have been chosen to pull on the Maroons jersey for the third time this series. Munster will retain the No.6 jersey with Grant making impact off the interchange bench.
Felise Kaufusi misses out on selection after playing both Games 1 and 2 after travelling to the United States to attend to important family matters, alongside Xavier Coates who continues to recover from an ankle injury sustained in Game 1.
Both Queensland and New South Wales are one win away from claiming the 2022 Origin shield. The Blues will be eager to retain the prize after last year's near dominant win, while the Maroons will be keen to take back the title since their victory in 2020.
