Injured stars Cameron Munster, Kalyn Ponga and Harry Grant have been included in the Maroons squad for the opening match of the 2021 Origin series.
All three haven't played since round nine - Munster is battling a Lisfranc injury in his foot, Ponga a groin complaint and Grant hasn't played since being laid low by a hamstring problem.
The Maroons have named a 20-man squad, with doubts also existing over the availability of utility back AJ Brimson and second-rower Felise Kaufusi.
Other top players included are David Fifita, Dane Gagai , Valentine Holmes , Christian Welch , Tino Fa'asuamaleaui , Xavier Coates and Daly Cherry-Evans.
