NSW will start red-hot favourites to secure the first 3-0 clean sweep in women's State of Origin as Queensland turn to two debutants in the absence of their biggest stars.
The Maroons will blood Gold Coast outside back Destiny Mino-Sinapati at fullback in place of injured skipper Tamika Upton in game three of the Origin series at Robina on Thursday night.
North Queensland forward Lillian Yarrow will come off the bench on debut. The Maroons are also without tough prop Makenzie Weale and star winger Julia Robinson.
Mino-Sinapati's comeback from injury is a tribute to the 21-year-old's character. She came through the Titans' pathways system and was signed to an NRLW deal in 2023 after scoring four tries in an academy match.
