Brydens Lawyers NSW Blues coach Brad Fittler has today named his 21-man squad for Game Three of the Ampol State of Origin series at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane on Wednesday 18 November.
Fittler has retained the same players from 1-17 who won Game Two in Sydney to keep the Blues hopes alive of retaining the Origin shield they have held for the past two years. Ryan Papenhuyzen, Jarome Luai and Nick Cotric have been named on the extended bench for the first time this series.
The squad returned to camp at the Pullman Magenta Shores Resort yesterday and will train at Morry Breen Oval, Wallarah Road, Kanwal on Saturday 14 November.
