Queensland select Cooper

North Queensland forward Gavin Cooper will make his State of Origin debut in Game III after being picked by Queensland.

Cooper and Manly front-runner are the only two changes for the Maroons.

Myles returns to the Queensland line-up after missing the Game II win over the Blues due to injury, while Cooper will become the 185th player to represent Queensland in the Origin arena when he makes his debut on Wednesday week.

Michael Morgan and Josh Papalii were unavailable for selection due to injury.
