NSW may have to replace their captain for the Origin decider, with Boyd Cordner racing the clock to be fit.

Triple M’s Mark Geyer believes it’s an easy change.

“You put Wade Graham in the starting line-up and bring in either Trent Merrin or Luke Lewis. And you make either Josh Jackson or [Aaron] Woods captain,” said MG, on the Triple M Grill Team.

Matty Johns agreed: “I think Wade Graham comes in. I like Wade Graham’s leadership qualities. Wade Graham is a really good talker. Jackson’s an ‘action man’ - he leads by his actions.

“Graham has got those communication skills and he’ll relish the opportunity."

And who comes on the bench for Graham?

“Hard to argue with Luke Lewis - experience helps with those big deciders up there [in Brisbane].”
