The State of Origin captains have been set - Trent Cotchin will skipper Victoria and Nathan Fyfe will lead the All-Stars.

Cotchin loomed as an obvious choice for Damien Hardwick's side, being a two-time premiership skipper under him at Richmond.

Fyfe was named skipper of last year's All-Australian team and was reappointed as Fremantle's frontman for a fourth season.

The star Docker is also coming off a Brownlow Medal campaign.

Victoria and the All-Stars will meet at Marvel Stadium at 7:50pm (AEST) on Friday night.
