Queensland coach Billy Slater faces a critical decision heading into State of Origin Game 2, with the Maroons needing to regroup after a disappointing loss in the opening match.

In his latest analysis, Crawley names a group of players who, despite their incredible form in the NRL, have been overlooked for Origin duty. These forgotten stars could be the key to reigniting the Maroons’ fightback and shifting the momentum ahead of the next clash with New South Wales.
