Ethan Strange is working to recover from an ankle injury for the State of Origin decider, with Burton as backup.
Canberra Raiders young gun Ethan Strange is doing everything he can to be fit for next week's State of Origin decider.
Strange was seen wearing a moon boot at NSW Blues camp in Kingscliff on Thursday night, having rolled his ankle at training earlier in the day.
The Blues told The Canberra Times on Friday no decision had been made about Strange's availability for the Origin III decider at Lang Park on Wednesday night.
But Matt Burton has been brought into the squad for cover for Strange if the Raiders five-eighth was ruled out.
