Wilton has been added to the NSW training squad ahead of the State of Origin decider on July 9 at Accor Stadium, according to sharks.com.au.

NSW Blues coach Laurie Daley is set to retain the same starting lineup that faced Queensland in Game Two, where they suffered a loss following a previous victory.

The series is currently tied after NSW won the first match 18-6 in Brisbane and Queensland responded with a 26-24 win in Perth.

Key players for NSW, including chief playmakers Nathan Cleary and Jarome Luai, are confirmed to play despite recent injuries.

Cleary is dealing with a groin issue, while Luai is recovering from an infection.

Additionally, winger Brian To'o, who has been facing a hamstring concern, also made it to the squad despite a scare in his recent game against the Bulldogs.

To'o received treatment for a knee injury but managed to complete the match with the joint strapped.

After applying ice post-game, he now has nine days to prepare for the crucial decider.
