Ethan Strange's State of Origin audition opens opportunities for Corey Horsburgh and Tom Starling due to injuries to Pat Carrigan and Blayke Brailey.
It's not just a State of Origin audition for boom five-eighth Ethan Strange.
Injury has opened the Origin door for two more Canberra Raiders - Corey Horsburgh and Tom Starling.
Pat Carrigan (ankle) and Blayke Brailey (arm) have both been ruled out for game two - at the MCG on June 17.
Queensland coach Billy Slater called the Raiders' win over North Queensland for Channel Nine on Sunday, so he got a close look at how Horsburgh performed.
