QUEENSLAND selectors will meet on Monday afternoon to discuss a likely 17-man squad to hopefully wrap up the State of Origin series at Suncorp Stadium on Wednesday week.

The hot topic will be whether to retain code jumper Israel Folau, who has declared his intentions to play and promote AFL for the next four years.

The QRL has indicated it will not ratify a team that includes Folau, sending a clear message to players they must show the game some loyalty if they want play in its showpiece series.

However there's been a shift in opinion from several leading current and former players originally opposed to picking Folau.

Queensland will also have to find a replacement for senior forward Petero Civoniceva (broken hand).

NSW name their Origin side on Monday night.
