Queensland Maroons coach Kevin Walters has said today that Greg Inglis, Darius Boyd and Ben Barba are all front-of-mind to wear the No.1 for Queensland in this year’s Origin series.
Speaking at today’s XXXX Maroons Gladstone Fan Day announcement at Brisbane Airport, Walters said that while the recent injury to the resurgent Billy Slater was a blow, the team has plenty of options at the back.
"Greg obviously played in last year’s Game 3 and from memory had a pretty fair game, so he’d be one that'd come into calculations. Darius Boyd is in some good form for the Broncos and Ben Barba as well has started the year strongly for the Sharks.
“At this stage we're still 11 weeks away Origin, but we’ve got some good options to shift back there, which would open up an opportunity for someone. Who that person is we just don’t know yet.”
