Blues hit with massive injury blow for Origin 2
SEN • June 12th, 2025 3:07 pm
NSW Blues have suffered a huge loss for State of Origin Game 2 with Mitch Moses ruled out with injury.
With Laure Daley’s side looking to wrap the series up in Perth, Jarome Luai is most likely to be called into camp to replace Moses who sustained a calf injury at training today.
Speaking from the Blues camp, Jelisa Apps told SEN 1170:
“Moses had a calf injury at training and he is out of Origin 2. It’s the same calf and they don’t know how long he will be out in club land.
"They have to look at a replacement, but they have to get permission from the NRL for that.”
Matt Burton is another option for Daley.
“It happened about 20 minutes into the session,” NSW team performance manager, Frank Ponissi told news Corp.
“He took the ball down the short side and he has been ruled out of State of Origin II.
“We’re not sure about the severity at this stage.
“Our medical team is working with the Parramatta Eels medical team.
“He will have scans and return back to Parramatta. We haven’t discussed a replacement at this stage. We will sit down with our coaching staff and work with the NRL from a procedural point of view.
“We will make an announcement in the next few hours.”
Origin Game II will be played in Perth on June 18.
