Mitchell Moses feels fit and ready to return for NSW in State of Origin II, confident despite injury concerns prior to the match on June 17.

The Canberra Times

NSW five-eighth Mitch Moses insists he is a certainty to play the second State of Origin match despite being named to start under an injury cloud.

Moses was feeling "very good" on return to Blues camp on Tuesday, having been ruled out of the game-one win with a hamstring injury suffered two days before kick-off.

The Parramatta captain has not played since, but was put through a variety of fitness tests with the Eels leading up to Tuesday morning's team announcement.

Blues coach Laurie Daley has called Dolphins playmaker Isaiya Katoa into camp as injury cover, and has Moses' electric game-one replacement Ethan Strange on his bench.
