Payten has named the majority of his State of Origin squad members in the reserves, with only Jeremiah Nanai not included in the squad. Payten has opted to rest Nanai, who is managing a minor calf complaint.
Prop Jordan McLean and utility Jake Granville have been named to return from respective calf and bicep injuries. The veteran duo sustained injuries in the Round 13 victory over the Roosters.
