• Monday Buzz: Blues should dominate Kangaroos

• Monday Buzz: Hook, Gus rumours won’t go away

QUEENSLAND’S 12-year domination of Australia’s Kangaroos squad is finally over.

Mal Meninga’s team to play New Zealand, and hopefully Tonga, at the end of the season faces its biggest shake-up in more than a decade on the back of the Baby Blues winning the State of Origin series.

If the side is chosen strictly on State of Origin form, as many as 11 players from Australia’s 2017 World Cup champions would be missing and replaced by Brad Fittler’s all-conquering Blues.

The Kangaroos team is likely to feature a stack of NSW players.

Buzz named his team on Monday and he’d hand debuts to James Tedesco, Latrell Mitchell, Josh Addo-Carr, Damien Cook, Jack de Belin, Kalyn Ponga and Paul Vaughan with James Maloney, Boyd Cordner, Tyson Frizell and Jake Trbojevic rounding out the Blues domination.
