Three players were forced off the field after suffering head injuries in the opening three minutes of the State of Origin decider on Wednesday night.
Three players - Queensland's Selwyn Cobbo and Lindsay Collins, as well as New South Wales' Cameron Murray - were ejected just three and a half minutes into Wednesday night's contest at Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium.
Just seconds later Cobbo was knocked out, crashing head-first into the hip of his Maroons teammate Patrick Carrigan.
