Fiji Bati Hooker Apisai Koroisau will start on the interchange as the NSW Blues have made 7 changes for the second match of this year’s State of Origin Series.

The Blues are currently down 1-0 in the Series following their shock loss a few weeks ago.

Matt Burton will make his debut at left centre after Jack Wighton tested positive for COVID-19 and has been ruled out.

Coach Brad Fittler has also recalled Jake Trbojevic, Angus Crighton and Clint Gutherson.

Star fullback James Tedesco will captain the side which also includes Nathan Cleary, Jarome Luai, Damien Cook, Payne Haas, Cameron Murray and Brian To’o.

The Maroons will name their side today.

Game two of the State of Origin Series will be played at 9.50pm Sunday.
