State of Origin series low in Raiders players, but legends believe team will rebound.
This State of Origin series is shaping up to have the least representation of Raiders players in nearly a decade, but two league greats are adamant the Green Machine will rise again.
With Hudson Young dropped by the Blues after game one and no Queensland Raiders on the Maroons radar in this series, Canberra's Origin relevance hasn't been this low since 2015 when Josh Papali'i had his lone appearance in that year's decider.
Young's omission means Wednesday night's clash at the Melbourne Cricket Ground will also be the first match since the Origin series finale in 2016 not to feature a single Raiders player.
