UEENSLAND’S State of Origin selectors have thrust further intrigue upon the third and deciding match in this year’s Harvey Norman State of Origin series.


The XXXX Maroons team for the July 6 showdown at Suncorp Stadium contains no Billy Slater, Dane Carlaw or Casey McGuire and, as yet, is limited to just 16 names.


Breaking with convention, the Origin selectors have decided to wait until after this weekend’s NRL fixtures before adding the 17th and final player.


A handful of potential Queensland representatives will make their return from injury for club teams in Round 17 and have subsequently been put on notice to perform.


In the most contentious of selections, Matt Bowen has supplanted Slater from the starting fullback’s role, while Danny Nutley is the new starting prop.


Interchange roles have been won by both Brisbane’s Corey Parker and South Sydney’s Ashley Harrison.


The New South Wales team announced earlier today saw Timana Tahu and Craig Gower called in for Luke Rooney and Craig Wing respectively.

Billy Slater dropped

OH NO

Who is 17

 

[shadow grinder]

no slater?

wow

 

[Godz Illa]

Wow. Simply stunning.

 

[Hurriflatch]

Go TBA

dumb Queenslanders

 

[Mr Saab]

not a bad team. Not overly confident in it, but i think they can get the job done up in QLD by 1-6 points in a nail biter.
I hope TBA is good!

 

[Bullrider]

Yeah not a bad team. Better then last times one. TBA i wonder who they have two props and an verstatile player in Harrison on the bench so who will it be. Who is pending charges from the weekend?

 

[Pierced Soul]

slater gooorne? Why? he's been been good....I knoe they want bowan to get more ball but I would have had slater on the wing.... glad harrison gets a go, not sure if parker's played all that well... and does this TBA mean that Lote has come back?

 

[Ghoulies]

I never thought they'd have the balls to drop Slater. :shock:

I don't know what the TBA is for since we already have 3 interchange forwards; no. 17 should be PJ Marsh IMO.

edit - Also, congrats to Ash Harrison and Danny Nutley on their long overdue selection.

 

[The Colonel]

Nutley and Harrison finally get a chance two years after they should have.... good to see.

 

[mickdo]

Two rookies for a decider??? Very risky.

 

[Pierced Soul]

Wait I got it!! They're bringing back alfie!!!

 

[Morenito]

How would Slater feel?

Unless his under a judiciary cloud?
Is he a chance to get suspended anyone know?

 

[Special K]

wooo nutley

fair call on Bowen at 1. I thought the tries Slater got on the weekend might have saved him but they went with Bowen. Bowen won't let them down. Bowen was good enough to go on the Kangaroo tour last year and will go well at FB for 80

 

[ParraMatt]

Great to see Harrison and Nutley there... Now I wonder who number 17 is, Hope it is P.J.Marsh

 

[legend]

Slater will be there and Bowen relegated to the bench IMO. Who else could it be?

 

[Bullrider]

NO is PJ pending charges. he would be awesome off the bench and covers a lot of places as well. Anyway i love the team apart from Crocker i would have had Stagg there but you cant have to many rookies playing can you.

 

[Jono078]

Maybe the TBA is Jason Smith, maybe they are trying to change his mind ?

 

[the_eel]

The QLD team is looking weaker from game to game. That forward pack is very ordinary IMO as is the bench. I know that it can't be helped but they are really gonna miss both Price and Webb big time!
