Canberra Raiders Jack Murchie to represent junior Kangaroos

Jack Murchie has been handed the opportunity of a lifetime, after being named in the junior Australian Kangaroos squad to take on the junior Kiwis this Friday at GIO Stadium, Canberra.

"I was surprised and excited when the team was announced and I saw I had been included," Murchie said. "It's a huge honour for me to be able to represent my country and I can't wait to rip in. This ranks as my highest personal achievement to date – it doesn’t get much bigger than representing your country."

So at least 4 or 5 to make their respective SOO U20 teams?

Congrats to Emre Guler and Jack Murchie on their selections in the NSW U20 side.

William Samuel and Jarred Tuite unfortunately missed out on selection in the Broncos... I mean QLD U20 side.

Murchie was immense for NSW on the edges this evening. I'd say in their top 5 players.
Guler didn't see much game time unfortunately.

NSW way too dominant and clinical in all aspects of the game.

Yeah Murchie was excellent.

Apologies forgot to mention that Jack was named Man of the Match. Well done Jack, keep it up.

Live Stream for tomorrow's U18 SOO game featuring Sebastian Kris for NSW for those interested.
