It's the lime green shoots in the Canberra Raiders' engine room that had Hudson Young eager to re-sign.
And he's predicted the likes of Ata Mariota, Trey Mooney and Hohepa Puru could form the next wave of Green Machine front-row stars.
Young re-signed with the Raiders until the end of 2027, with The Canberra Times expecting the club to announce a similar extension for Corey Horsburgh in the coming days.
