QLD State of Origin Team GAME 2

Update: Darren Lockyer is out, and Scott Prince is in the starting lineup at half back. Jonathan Thurston moves to number 6. My concern would be the halves in defensive given their size, I think NSW will look to target Thurston and Prince, as QLD scrambles to cover their smaller halves. Should be an exciting game!
