He said he’s ready and online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au agrees – Todd Carney will be named NSW five-eighth for Game 1 of the 2012 State of Origin series.

Carney has continued to firm to get the nod as his stellar run of form continues unabated, first a $6.00 chance before being backed into $1.90 and now into $1.14.

“Carney has been the best backed player by far,” sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes said. “There has been interest in the other candidates as well but as Carney has continued to play well, that has cooled off.”

Jamie Soward continues to drift, out to $7.00, as have Jarrod Mullen ($26) and James Maloney ($51). Any other player is priced at $4.50.
