Ethan Strange debuts in Australian Kangaroos; Hudson Young retains his spot for Ashes tour.
Ethan Strange is set to make his international debut as one of two Canberra Raiders named in the Australian Kangaroos for the upcoming Ashes tour of England.
While young Raiders five-eighth Strange is vying for a starting spot in the opening Test match of the series in London on October 25, Raiders teammate Hudson Young retained his place in the squad after making his Kangaroos debut last year.
Both players won the Dally M honours in the team of the year as the best NRL players in their respective positions, highlighting the duo's dominance in a minor premiership-winning campaign for the Green Machine.
