Triple M's Paul Gallen said that he's confident the side Laurie Daley has named for Origin I can topple QLD, with the former NSW captain surprised by some of the Maroons' selections.

Speaking on Triple M's Dead Set Legends, Gal said the Blues should feel pretty comfortable heading into the series on Wednesday week. Listen to the podcast below.

“If I was playing that side I’d be relatively confident and happy compared to other QLD sides I’ve faced in the past,” Gal said.

“I can’t believe Slater’s not there and Valentine Holmes is the other one. He was the best winger in the competition last year and he’s proven how good he is this year as well so I think it’s a big plus for NSW that those two aren’t going to be there.

“Particularly with Slater's leadership. Experience and leadership around Origin is so important and to not have Matt Scott, Corey Parker and Greg Inglis - three massive leaders who have been a part of that side for a long time. I think it’s a big hole to fill.”
