While most State of Origin tips are going against the Blues at Suncorp Stadium, Murray says he never doubted his availability heading into Game 2.
"Not really," Murray said when asked if he thought he wouldn't line up for the Blues in Game 2.
"I just jumped on the back of feedback from a lot of the physios, and they said there's a good possibility you'll be able to play," Murray said.
"So I did everything I could, and it has paid off; I’m ready to go."
