Need to change that to 7:30pm NRL Raiders v Dragons instead of 5:30pm.

Hopefully Dragons come out on top here, desperately need to backup last night's performance.

[God-King Dean]

50/50 game.

 

[Raider_69]

Raiders to win comfortably... in the U20's

 

[raiders fan forever]

hoping the Raiders can keep up the good home performances in 2008 and i hope the Raiders thump the Dragons but my tips Raiders 1-12.

 

[Shorty]

Raiders usually do well at home,I'm going to check Canberra on the bom website before making my tip though LOL.

 

[petetheileet]

Game will rely on saints...

Saints play well they win....

Saints play average they win...

Saints play bad Raiders win

Not too bad, will take a few extra layers though!

Saturday Fine, sunny. Min 2 Max 19

 

[skeepe]

Sunday's min will be 4 as well... expect a temperature of about 8 or 9 degrees come kick-off.

 

[miccle]

Canberra always seem to trouble the Drags and are always tough at home.

I'll pick the Raiders for, surprisingly, the third straight week. Carn Canberra!

Stats with Gavin Badger as the referee:

Canberra: Played 9 (3H 6A), Won 7 (3H 4A) Lost 2 (2A)
St. George-Illawarra: Played 3 (2H 1A), Won 3 (2H 1A) Lost 0

 

[phonetic]

Well... it's that time of year. The annual Bruce Stadium hammering. I won't be making it down this year unfortunately as I have to play a gig.

I marvelled at our discipline last week and can only hope we can keep it up. If we do, I think we will win by 8-12.

BOM will never give you any indication of how cold it is at Bruce stadium. I'll be wearing a polar fleece, beanie and scarf and I'll have a blanket too. It'll be a cold night. i just hope the reception from the crowd is still frosty after the match too.

 

[skeepe]

This is true. Canberra Stadium is ALWAYS colder than anywhere else in Canberra. It's just one of those things.

 

[Hutty1986]

This is true. Canberra Stadium is ALWAYS colder than anywhere else in Canberra. It's just one of those things.

I hope its a bit warmer than last years game!!

I'm guessing I'll be right to buy my ticket on the night?

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

st george were terrible in this game last year. im tipping raiders by 12 purely on home ground advantage . should be a cold night too. better bust out the winter jacket.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Raiders by plenty.

Expecting a huge game from Bronx.
