Warriors prop Jacob Lillyman has been named on the Queensland bench for the opening State of Origin clash next Wednesday.

Lillyman has previously played in four occasions for Queensland between 2006 and 2008.

Dane Nielsen and Jharal Yow Yeh will make their debuts in Brisbane next week.

Melbourne centre Nielsen replaces Greg Inglis while Broncos winger Yow Yeh celebrates an Origin call-up barely a fortnight after making his test debut for Australia.

It is believed Inglis wanted to play but is expected to be ruled out for up to a month after again injuring the hip that required pre-season surgery.

North Queensland-born Nielsen, 25, made his NRL debut back in 2008 but only came to prominence during the Storm's run to the 2009 grand final.

He cemented his spot in the Melbourne backline last year, playing 21 NRL games and appeared in the World Club Challenge.

Nielsen has played a total of 42 first grade games.

Broncos backrower Corey Parker has been recalled to the Queensland side after a six year absence.

Giant South Sydney forward Dave Taylor - who featured in Queensland's fifth straight series win last year - has been named 18th man.

Queensland will be primed for a record sixth series win in skipper Darren Lockyer's swansong season.

Queensland:
1 Billy Slater, 2 Darius Boyd, 3 Dane Nielsen, 4 Willie Tonga, 5 Jharal Yow Yeh, 6 Darren Lockyer, 7 Johnathan Thurston, 8 Matt Scott, 9 Cameron Smith, 10 Petero Civoniceva, 11 Nate Myles, 12 Sam Thaiday, 13 Ash Harrison.

Interchange: Cooper Cronk, Ben Hannant, Corey Parker, Jacob Lillyman. 18th man: Dave Taylor
