Answering the call of KARI City Origin coach and True Blue Brad Fittler, returning captain Paul Gallen says he had no hesitations to revive his representative career in this year's Country versus City Origin.

"2006 was the first time I represented City, it was my first-ever rep jumper, and I've been lucky enough to play for Australia and New South Wales over the past 10-or-so years," Gallen says.

"To be back here for the last game, I'm looking forward to it."

Watch as Gallen spoke exclusively 1-on-1 with NSWRL.com.au, just moments after being named the KARI City Origin captain.
