By staff writers
May 13, 2008
BRISBANE half-back Peter Wallace is the surprise inclusion in the New South Wales team to contest State of Origin 1 in Sydney next week.
The Broncos player has been drafted in to the side ahead of Newcastle's Kurt Gidley who has been left out after sustaining a facial injury in his side's defeat at Melbourne last night.
Wallace will play alongside Cronulla's Greg Bird in the halves.
Newcastle forward Ben Cross has been named despite receiving a sickening blow in the final minute of his side's match in Melbourne. Gold Coast Titans hard man Anthony Laffranchi has also received a call up.
More to come.
Brett Stewart, Jarryd Hayne, Mark Gasnier, Matt Cooper, Anthony Quinn, Greg Bird, Peter Wallace, Brett White, Danny Buderus (c), Ben Cross, Ryan Hoffman, Willie Mason, Paul Gallen
Interchange: Anthony Laffranchi, Anthony Tupou, Craig Fitzgibbon, Ben Hornby
