We love the mighty Canberra Raiders
The Brick is sick of seeing the Blues lose and is demanding a change.
Raiders two-time premiership winner Glenn Lazarus put his hand up to get back involved with NSW Origin camp after being left "really disappointed" by the entire approach of the Blues in recent years.
"I'd love to be a part of it, but I wouldn't want to coach," he told The Canberra Times.
Playing in a Queensland jersey has been a "massive dream" for the Maroons' Corey Horsburgh since he was a little boy, and as that becomes a reality, he has met thousands of young fans with a similar dream.
In pouring rain, Horsburgh and the Queensland State of Origin team greeted more than 4,000 fans on Tuesday at Barlow Park oval in Cairns ahead of game three next Wednesday in Sydney.
"I can't wait for the week ahead," Horsburgh said, adding he felt grateful for the opportunity.
"It's been a massive dream of mine since I was a little boy."
The Canberra Raiders have been forced into two changes for their round 19 clash with the Dragons on Friday night in Wollongong.
With Corey Horsburgh named to make his Origin debut and Pasami Saulo out due to concussion, Trey Mooney and Peter Hola have been called onto the bench.
Emre Guler has been moved into the starting front row while Ata Mariota has been named at lock.
Meanwhile, the Dragons have made several changes to last week's side, with Dan Russell to make his NRL debut off the bench.
Paul Turner will make his club debut at fullback in place of the injured Tyrell Sloan, while Junior Amone comes into the halves with Ben Hunt...
