[kia ora storm]

Storm by 12...

 

[skeepe]

Eep.

 

[Chief_Chujo]

Wonder if Bellamy might rest some, or all, of the big 3.

 

[Raider_69]

well we got out extra bye last night, so it only stands to be fair that melbourne get theirs this week.

 

[Earl]

Canberra always seem to play pretty well against Melbourne, with up to 3 players backing up from Origin, there may not be too much in this one.

 

[Timmah]

Raiders named

 

[Proud2BeCanberran]

Oh Christ... :lol:

 

[Raidersrawesome]

Storm are wearing a different strip this week. Identical to the Dragons.

Raiders win

 

[Evenflow]

Wonder if Bellamy might rest some, or all, of the big 3.

Slater is already out, injury permitting i can't see Smith and Cronk not backing up though Smith will more than likely play reduced minutes as has happened in the past.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Even if the storm were borderline average this week which is very rare i still can't see the raiders get over. Storm by 22 with smith going off for a rest and widdop missing the last conversion

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Raiders by twenty. We got this.

 

[paxtonpale]

Storm by 12. I feel after a loss to the Dogs, we wil bounce back with a good win after a good break. If Cronk and Smith do feel tired, Kostajain and Hinchcliffe will come in. Widdop to play for the next 2-4 weeks as Slater apparently won't be playing for the next three games. Raiders, Cowboys and Eels. The game we really need him is against the Cowboys (though we are at home). I don't really like Maurice Blair at five-eight though it's something that I will have to live on.

 

[Earl]

Melbourne by 13+

Melbourne by 1 - 12 if Michael Bani plays

 

[paxtonpale]

Hasn't Fausoso come to the Storms instantly? if he does, I rather him than Vave tbh. I want to see how he does, coming off the bench.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

In the past we've usually gone pretty well against Melbourne for most of the game and then Slater or Inglis would tear us up in the last 10 minutes. Glad both of them aren't there.

 

[paxtonpale]

We are at home. The only time we have lost at home was when we were playing youth players against the Tigers... And even still, we could have won!

 

[raiders fan forever]

hmmm hate versing the Storm but we all saw what happened last year in melbourne which was on the back of like a 8 game losing streak.

 

[innsaneink]

Canberras forwards need to aim up for the full 80....no dropped ball, if they do we should see a good game
I predict golden point

 

[raiders fan forever]

toyota cup is 56 mins in Storm up 30-10
