Carrigan, Nanai back to bolster Maroons for series decider
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.

Queensland coach Billy Slater has recalled Patrick Carrigan, who has not played a game since May, for State of Origin III as he named his squad for the decider at Lang Park.
Carrigan suffered a syndesmosis ankle injury in round 13 that required surgery, which was supposed to sideline him for six weeks.
He has not returned to the field for the Brisbane Broncos but Slater insisted "he'll be right to play" Game III in nine days' time, marking five-and-a-half weeks since the injury.
"Anyone who knows Pat Carrigan knows he leaves no stone unturned in his preparation, whether he's injured or not," he said.
