Canberra Raiders coach Ricky Stuart has identified second-rower Hudson Young as a potential future captain of the club.
While Joseph Tapine currently holds the role, Young's recent performance on and off the field has impressed Stuart.
Known for his attacking prowess and improved defensive skills, Young has shown growth and maturity in recent seasons.
After a strong showing against the Cronulla Sharks, Stuart highlighted Young's potential for leadership and revealed his consideration for the captaincy, stating, "This is the best start to the season I reckon Hudson's had since I've coached him.
He's really started the season well and his off field manner, his leadership, he's very authentic." With a record of three wins and two losses so far in the season, Young's consistent improvement and dedication have positioned him as a strong candidate for the captaincy role in the future.
