Raiders.com.au has reported that after anxiously waiting for a call from NSW coach Brad Fittler, Raiders forward Hudson Young was relieved to receive the news he had been hoping for.
As day turned to night on Monday, Young couldn't help but wonder if he would be given a second chance to prove himself in the intense atmosphere of Suncorp Stadium or if his Origin career would come to a halt after just one match.
However, at 7.30pm, Young's phone finally rang and it was Fittler on the other end of the line.
