The side features a wealth of experience with over 80 State of Origin appearances and 55 Australian caps among the players.

Returning from the previous game played in Mount Isa in 2019 is Kerry Bousted.

The now 61-year-old was the youngest ever player to be selected for the Kangaroos in the 1970s and was named as one of the players of the 20^th century.

Also returning is Cliff Lyons, aged 59.

Lyons is a Clive Churchill Medallist and two-time Dally M Medallist, and made 309 first-grade appearances with the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles, winning grand finals with them in 1987 and 1996.

They will be lining up alongside the "Polar Bear" Ben Hannant, a mere youngster at 36, who played for the Broncos in their 2006 premiership win.

Darren Smith, 52, will also lace up the boots.

Smith was the top try scorer in 1988 and crossed for the final try in Brisbane's 38-12 thrashing of his former club Canterbury in that year's grand final.

The Legends of League match will take place on Saturday May 29 at Alec Inch Oval.
