Cobargo-born rugby league player Millie Boyle has been selected for an altogether different kind of challenge - starring in the next season of the hit reality TV show SAS Australia.

The 23-year-old former ACT Brumby with Canberra Raiders bloodlines will be among 17 celebrities taking part in the 2022 show, including the likes of retired AFL players Wayne Carey and Barry Hall, and reality veterans Locky Gilbert and Anna Heinrich.

The latest season of the show, currently playing out on Prime7, puts celebrities through a series of physical and psychological tests from the real SAS selection process.

Boyle has strong links to the national capital - her dad David Boyle and uncle Jason Croker both played for the Raiders - and she represented both the Brumbies schoolgirls team and the ACT side at the women's national rugby championships.
