NSW Blues coach Brad Fittler named a whopping 13 debutants across the 2018 State of Origin series, but he could be about to blood a few more this campaign.
Fittler has taken a look at the next generation, and has pointed out five young stars who could find themselves in Origin calculations this season.
“I think South Sydney have got some great juniors,” Fittler said in Five with Fittler on the NSWRL website.
“Campbell Graham and Cam Murray are a couple of young kids coming through.
“I think at Brisbane, Payne Haas and Tevita Pangai (Junior) just to name a couple were the best kids coming through.
“Zac Lomax is another one who was one of the real shining lights coming through the junior Pathways.
“There are about five to watch out for, for the start of the year.”
