Mitchell Moses and Junior Paulo have been selected in the NSW Blues side to play in Origin II at Suncorp Stadium next Wednesday.
Moses will make his first appearance for NSW since his 2021 debut, after winning the race for the vacant no. 7 jersey. He is set to partner Jarome Luai in the halves for the must-win match in Brisbane.
The Eels halfback staked his claim for Origin selection with a strong performance against the Bulldogs on Monday, making two try assists and kicking four goals.
Meanwhile, Paulo has been elevated to the NSW starting side after playing off the bench in Game I.
With Moses and Paulo set to spend the week in Origin camp, the pair will be unavailable for the Eels' match against the Sea Eagles on Saturday.
