The Queensland Maroons selected a 20-player roster for Game 3, featuring returning players Carrigan, Nanai, and Horsburgh.
The Queensland Maroons have officially announced their 20-player roster for Game 3 of the 2026 State of Origin series, featuring three key returning athletes: Patrick Carrigan, Jeremiah Nanai, and Corey Horsburgh.
After missing Game 2 due to a syndesmosis injury, Carrigan is back in action, while Nanai has recently showcased his skills with the North Queensland Cowboys, securing his place once again.
The Samoan international made a significant impact last week, scoring two tries in his team's victory over the Penrith Panthers, prompting coach Billy Slater to reinstate him in the Maroons squad.
Carrigan, having played 48 minutes in Game 1, is expected to bolster the Maroons' middle for this crucial match, marking his 14th appearance in the Origin series.
