1 - In Game I, [[Billy Slater]] was originally selected at fullback for Queensland but had to withdraw due to an injury. He was replaced at fullback by Michael Morgan, with Anthony Milford coming on to the bench as a replacement.
2 - [[Greg Inglis]] took over the captaincy for the Maroons after the retirement from rep football of [[Cameron Smith (rugby league, born 1983)|Cameron Smith]]. A thumb injury after Game 2 meant [[Billy Slater]] would take over the role for Game 3.
3 - Daly Cherry-Evans made his return to State of Origin, named for his first start at halfback since Game 2 of the 2015 series.
4 - [[Billy Slater]] would controversially be awarded with the [[Wally Lewis Medal]] for Player of the Series, despite only appearing in two out of the three games in a team that lost the series. The NRL [https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/subscribe/news/1/?sourceCode=DTWEB_WRE170_a_GGL&dest=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailytelegraph.com.au%2Fsport%2Fnrl%2Fstate-of-origin%2Fnrl-changes-voting-criteria-for-state-of-origin-man-of-the-series-medal%2Fnews-story%2F55b46083c82892913b87d3d40405d999&memtype=registered&mode=premium&v21=dynamic-groupa-control-noscore&V21spcbehaviour=append changed the process] for deciding the award the following year.
