Tough ask for the Donkeys here. Half their team backing up, having to travel to Canberra to face a desperate Raiders side in chilly conditions.

The Raiders appeared to run out of juice in the latter stages last start, as accurately called by none other than Blocker Roach. How else do you explain Moylan being allowed to stand and pass like Arthur Beetson? They need to play for the full 80 this time and if they can do so I think they will see victory.

Depends how many players back up

Depends how many players back up

Not really. We lost to the Knights after all.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Really don't understand how the raiders are favourites. They've been absolute balls this year.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

and if Benji Marshall plays then we're definitely screwed

 

[Das Gupta]

Raiders at home should be enough.

 

[lockyno1]

Really don't understand how the raiders are favourites. They've been absolute balls this year.

They are at home and I won't be shocked if Gillett, McGuire and Boyd don't back up.

 

[This Year?]

Refs will ride the Broncos home after half the club will be sooking after the origin loss. IBM will be outskeeping skeepe and the world will go back to normal in 3 days after the game.

 

[Frank_Grimes]

Brisbane Saturdays should get up.

 

[TheFrog]

Really don't understand how the raiders are favourites. They've been absolute balls this year.

They are a good side who don't know how to win the close ones. This probably won't be close.

 

[ed-grimley]

The Raiders are the new Warriors - they could win but probably won't.

 

[GongPanther]

Raiders by 20.

Man this game will be icy cold

After spending the weekend in Canberra last weekend all I can say is good luck brissy

 

[pantherz9103]

Raiders will have more than enough advantages to try and win this one, in the cold and against a potentially tired Broncos group that will be without Milford. Having said that I just don't know what Raiders side will turn up.

 

[footy75]

Must win for Raiders

Think they will get the chocolates at home

maybe get up to their old tricks and turn off the hot water to the away shed and hose the field down just before kick off
