Australia's coach, Kevin Walters, has announced that young Canberra Raiders talent Ethan Strange is being considered for the Kangaroos squad for the 2025 Ashes Series, slated for later this year.
In just his third season in the NRL, Strange has developed a strong partnership with Jamal Fogarty in the halves, propelling the Raiders to the top of the NRL ladder. This duo has created one of the league's most effective running games for playmakers.
As the NRL Finals approach, the Raiders are seen as key contenders for the premiership. Strange has elevated his performance significantly, highlighted by a hat-trick scored earlier this round.
After an impressive display against the Manly Sea Eagles, he is now viewed as a potential surprise inclusion for Australia's roster to face England at the year's end.
