Ethan Strange remains on the NSW bench as Mitchell Moses is chosen despite injury concerns for Origin II.

The Canberra Times

Origin I hero Ethan Strange has missed out on a NSW Blues starting spot, with coach Laurie Daley opting to recall Mitchell Moses despite him being under an injury cloud.

Strange has again been named on the Blues bench - as he was for game one before being a late call-up to cover for Moses (hamstring).

As expected, Raiders second-rower Hudson Young retained his starting spot in the NSW back row.

Daley's giving Moses every opportunity to partner Nathan Cleary in the halves, but he'll have to train "flat out" on Thursday to prove his fitness for Origin II - at the MCG next Wednesday.
