NSW Blues star Ethan Strange has been given the green light to play in Wednesday's State of Origin decider after an injury scare late last week cast some doubt over his fitness.

Strange went down at Blues training on Thursday with a rolled ankle, and was subsequently seen assisted with a moon boot the following days. 

It threw chaos into the Blues camp, which prompted Laurie Daley to call an S.O.S to Matt Burton to be on standby if Strange couldn't play.

Although Strange has overcome the complaint, with Nine reporting that Strange has overcome the injury and Matt Burton will depart Blues camp in Kingscliff.
