Billy Slater has made three changes to his Maroons side for the series decider at Suncorp Stadium on July 8.
Pat Carrigan, Jeremiah Nanai and Corey Horsburgh come into the squad while Slater has opted not to pick Roosters forward Lindsay Collins who has entered the 11-day concussion protocol after failing his HIA on Friday night.
Broncos skipper Carrigan played 48 minutes off the bench in Game One of the series before injuring his ankle in the Round 13 loss to the Dragons and missing Game Two in Melbourne.
Carrigan will make his 14th Origin appearance for the Maroons as they look to win the series decider at Suncorp Stadium as they did in 2020 and 2022 before losing to Michael Maguire’s Blues side in Game Three, 2024.
Cowboys back-rower Jeremiah Nanai will play his first Origin since Game Three last year after making a sensational return from a shoulder injury over the past fortnight.
