Titans prop Jarrod Wallace has today been added to the Maroons squad as 18th man, replacing Johnathan Thurston.

Thurston has been ruled out of next week's State of Origin opener.

Thurston was named the Maroons' 18th man as he struggled with a shoulder injury in the lead-up to the Suncorp Stadium clash on Wednesday.

"I'm devastated I won't be playing next week, but the call needed to be made and it's the right decision for the team," Thurston said.
