Young is a strong ball runner and tackler, he also has a good kicking and passing game. He should be considered for origin.

Yes he should be in for Origin.

Dean should come back home and be head coach of Dragons now, enough of Hook , Dean bleeds red and white and has done his apprenticeship up north

A good honest toiler who always gave his all for the Dragons. Deserved more representative games but was in an era when there was heaps of competition
