The North Queensland Cowboys' website is buzzing with the news that Robson has been selected in the New South Wales Blues squad for Game Two of the Ampol State of Origin series.

The Blues coach, Michael Maguire, has put together a formidable 20-player squad for the upcoming match in Melbourne on June 26.

Latrell Mitchell, a sensational player from the Rabbitohs, is making a comeback to the Origin arena after his last appearance in 2021.

He will be taking the place of the suspended Joseph Sua'ali'i in the centres, bringing his electrifying skill and presence to the team.

Alongside Mitchell, there are a number of fresh faces in the Blues squad.

Connor Watson, Dylan Edwards, Mitchell Moses, and Cameron Murray have all received the call-up as New South Wales aims to even the series at 1-1.

Watson will be making his debut, coming off the bench to inject some energy and enthusiasm into the team.

Murray is stepping in for Sharks' lock Cameron McInnes, while Moses and Edwards have been brought in to replace Nicho Hynes and James Tedesco.

Moses had been sidelined for two months leading up to Game One due to a foot injury, making him ineligible for selection initially.

Edwards, on the other hand, missed out on the series opener due to a quad strain but is now ready to make his Origin debut.

It's going to be a thrilling showdown in Melbourne, as the Blues gear up to face off against Queensland in what promises to be a fierce battle.

With these new additions to the squad, New South Wales is primed and ready to put on a show and showcase their strength and determination on the field.
