Queensland coach Billy Slater has kept faith with a winning side after the Maroons took the series lead with a 16-10 win in game one.
Injuries to winger Xavier Coates and lock Reuben Cotter prompted the main changes to the squad, with Murray Taulagi coming in for Coates and while Tino Fa’asuamaleaui has moved into the number 13 jersey, and Lindsay Collins comes off the bench to fill the number eight spot. Jai Arrow will start on the bench.
The announcement follows the decision by NSW coach Brad Fittler to make seven changes to his squad ahead of the must-win game for the Blues at Perth Stadium on Sunday.
More to come.
