Parra are a kind of ok team, but Raiders should have the shits with how they played in Brisbane and come out and destroy them.

 

[FireFalcons1]

lol@parra

Raiders 30+

 

[GongPanther]

Raiders by 26.

Wheels have fallen off the Eels.

 

[ed-grimley]

Parra will unveil more ways of losing to the RL watchingpublic.

 

[Das Gupta]

Raiders.

 

[natheel]

Need to turn things around quickly.

 

[Bobby DIGital]

Parra have numerous dangerous attacking players. We should be able to absolutely humiliate their forward pack though, so if we hold the ball we win by 30+.

If we don't, we'll either win a close one or lose.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Whitehead is suspended for a "trip" which is a big loss for us. He's been one of our best

Whitehead is suspended for a "trip" which is a big loss for us. He's been one of our best

And there I was thinking how shit he's been compared to last year.

 

[Bazal]

We're much better than people are giving us credit for after two poor performances. But we haven't won in Canberra since before rugby league existed.

If we show up, Canberra by 8-10.
If we play like we did the last two weeks, Canberra by 22.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

And there I was thinking how shit he's been compared to last year.

You could say that about anyone in our team at the moment

 

[shear_joy9]

Parra a big chance in this one.
Hodgson is a massive loss if he doesn't play. Clydesdale is garbage and always looks like his name was picked from a hat to play hooker.

Let's see if sezer shits the bed again or if he can actually direct the team for once

 

[ACTPanthers]

Raiders by 18 (well, that's the hope anyway. I don't think I could watch my missus (Raiders fan) go through another game like last round)

 

[Hawkins]

raiders please

 

[PANTHERMIKE]

Raiders by 20

 

[Rhino_NQ]

eels by 2

 

[Rhyno]

Eels by 8

 

[leaguegod692]

canberra to put on a cricket score

 

[TheFrog]

Hodgson is a massive loss if he doesn't play.

Don't tell me Sticky is playing ducks and drakes with Hodgson again.

The Raiders look to be the better side, but you never know. They are quite capable of playing like pot plants for large sections of games. Parra fans must be ripping their hair out right about now. Raiders in a close run thing.
