Manly Warringah Sea Eagles lock Jake Trbojevic has tonight been named in the NSW Blues team for the second match of the 2022 State of Origin series.
Trbojevic has been recalled to the Blues team after being overlooked for the opening game of the series, won by Queensland.
The hard working lock forward has been in superb form and captained his beloved Sea Eagles to victories over the Warriors and the Wests Tigers in the absence of Queensland captain and half-back Daly Cherry-Evans.
The pair will line up against each other at Optus Stadium, Perth, on Sunday, June 26 with Trbojevic named to start the game in the front-row..
Trbojevic has played 13 games for the Blues since making his NSW debut in 2017.
