Read more here
He's come under a fair bit of scrutiny during his Origin career, but Blues halfback Mitchell Pearce is set to meet a substantial milestone.
Pearce is currently equal with the Eighth Immortal Andrew Johns in playing the most games as a NSW half.
Should everything go to plan on Wednesday night, he'll become the outright leader with 17 games under his belt.
This includes three games at five-eighth in 2015 partnering Trent Hodkinson.
Most games in NSW halves
Andrew Johns (16 games: 7 wins, 7 losses, 2 draws)
Mitchell Pearce (16* games: 5 wins, 11 losses)
Brad Fittler (15 games: 8 wins, 7 losses)
Laurie Daley (14 games: 9 wins, 4 losses, 1 draw)
Ricky Stuart (14 games: 8 wins, 6 losses)
And there's nothing like seeing it live. The Triple M Grill Team is sending you and a mate to Origin II at Anz Stadium to back our boys in Blue! Here’s how to win.
