The squad, which leads the 2017 series 1-0, can wrap up the shield for just the second time in 12 years at ANZ Stadium next week.
Brett Morris, Josh Dugan, Josh Jackson, Tyson Frizell and David Klemmer were all named after coming through Monday's NRL clash between St George Illawarra and Canterbury unhurt.
Boyd Cordner, rested by the Sydney Roosters on Sunday due to a knee issue, will captain the Blues.
The announcement came hours after the Maroons responded to their game one defeat with a whopping seven changes to their line-up.
It is the first time since a Brad Fittler-led Blues swept the Maroons in 1991 that NSW have enjoyed the luxury of not needing to alter their team in a series.
