Ken Nagas (born 18 June 1973) is a former professional rugby league player for the Canberra Raiders in the Australian National Rugby League (NRL) competition. He primarily played on the wing.
Nagas was selected to represent New South Wales for games II and III of the 1994 State of Origin series.[1][2] He was also selected as a winger for New South Wales in the 1997 Super League Tri-series. Nagas played in games I (against Queensland) and III (against New Zealand), scoring two tries in each game as well as the 'grand final' of the series against Queensland.
In the 1997 World Club Challenge, Nagas scored six tries for Canberra against Halifax, a club record.
After eleven seasons with the one first-grade club, knee problems forced Nagas to retire midway through 2002.[3]
In 2004, Nagas was named as a member of the Canberra Raider's best Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders to have played for Canberra.[4]
