Queensland has recalled Kalyn Ponga, Dane Gagai, and Selwyn Cobbo for the State of Origin decider at Lang Park, following injuries to wingers Xavier Coates and Murray Taulagi. Ponga and Gagai return to the Origin arena after missing part of the series due to injury and concussion concerns, bringing much-needed experience to the Maroons. NSW faces a significant setback with star centre Latrell Mitchell ruled out due to a Lisfranc foot injury, sustained during the Rabbitohs' win over Parramatta. Bradman Best, Matt Burton, and Tom Trbojevic are potential replacements for Mitchell, with coach Michael Maguire expected to make a final decision soon. The series is currently locked at 1-1, making the upcoming decider crucial for both teams.
