New South Wales Blues announced a fresh squad for State of Origin Game 3 on Sunday ahead of the crucial decider.
Coach Nigel Daley removed centre Cam To'o and added wing Brenden Bostock.
The changes raise the count to six cuts after the side lost its previous two matches.
Daley said the revisions were required to change the team's course.
Bostock will step onto the field for the first time in the decider.
The squad also includes seasoned veterans and younger talent as the Blues aim to reverse the series fortunes.
