Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for Episode 292 of NOT The Footy Show as we examine the QLD and NSW teams named by Billy Slater and Brad Fittler for State of Origin Game 1.
Tom Trbojevic has quite rightly been selected but it was Queensland who pulled off the biggest shock with Kalyn Ponga dumped for Reece Walsh... suddenly it's QLD who have decided leaving out class players is a good idea.
Of course Freddy waited til after we'd recorded to finalise his NSW 1-17 team so our squad analysis for the Blues is a bit off but not by much.
Both teams look really strong - so we've given our tips for Game 1.
