The Maroons have been forced into two changes for Origin III, with Gavin Cooper to make his Origin debut and Nate Myles to return from injury.
Cooper, 30, will represent his state for the first time after being on the fringes of the squad for the past few seasons. With Michael Morgan and Josh Papalii unavailable for selection through injury, Myles was also able to force his way back into the Queensland squad as Kevin Walters' side look to make it a clean sweep in the 2016 series.
