Brad Fittler has added another five players to NSW's State of Origin squad, but there was no room for Rabbitohs halfback Adam Reynolds and centre Campbell Graham | app85

Fittler described Walker's form as "absolutely awesome" as he seeks to add on his one cap from 2019.Reynolds and Graham were pushing hard for selection, but missed the squad, which has been assembled from teams which have bowed out of the NRL competition. Graham was a late withdrawal from the preliminary final loss through injury.

Fittler has named all bar seven players of his 27-man squad and will finalise selections after the grand final between Penrith and Melbourne at ANZ Stadium next Sunday night.The squad will go into camp on the Central Coast on Monday where they will be subject to strict biosecurity protocols. Wayne Bennett's Queensland squad has already been decimated with injuries to Kalyn Ponga, Michael Morgan, David Fifita and Moses Mbye while Valentine Holmes will miss the series opener in Adelaide through suspension.

Kangaroos coach Mal Meninga has been given special dispensation to join Bennett as an assistant coach for the series after Kevin Walters stepped down from the role after being named Broncos boss.
