Interesting game considering they both had similar games on Sunday (even same score), though Warriors unlucky to not get the lollies. Canberra may have psychological advantage as Warriors haven't won there since about 2001 or something ridiculous like that, but I saw enough good things from the Warriors last week to be confident of them at least showing up from now on (attitude wise).

Called Warriors by 2 for yesterday's game and Souths won by that margin, so will be calling Canberra by 2 for this one!!!

What a wonderful idea, celebrating the long and fruitful heritage between the Raiders and Warriors.

Who could forget such memorable clashes as Ruben Wiki's court case, or the Warriors breaching the cap while stealing Ruben Wiki from the Raiders many years later?

Never mind that that's about it as far as history goes between these two teams, at least we didn't get Melbourne again.

Campo will be back for this game.

It's going to take him a while to get back to his best but gee, I can't hide that I'm excited.

More than anything though I just hope he gets through the game unscathed!

:lol: You're such an angry man skeepe.
I know you love to follow him everywhere he goes, but he makes a f**king valid point.

We have zero history with the Warriors. But the NRL doesn't care, we were just the two teams left on their list after they had scheduled all their "blockbusters" with the "bigger" clubs.

This could turn into a cripple fight, depending on which teams turn up on the field. Canberra will win simply because they're at home.

The Captain is back.

I think the boys will fire up for this one. Could get messy.

In regards to "heritage" round. They should have at least matched us up with the Panthers after having played 2 Grand Finals against each other. They're playing the Knights and I don't think those two have a rich history against each other either.

Timmeh vs Jimmy should be a good one.
Looking forward to seeing Campese back in action - he's awesome to watch when not broken. We appear to be heading towards some kind of form, will pick the Warriors by 8.

A single dedicated heritage round means that not all teams will get what they want. It would be better to spread it out over a few rounds so that all teams get their shot at a decent matchup.

The Warriors do not fare well in Canberra. I'll be watching Campo's knee from the stands.

We don't really have a rivalry with anyone because we are the good guys. If the league is going to set these 2 clubs against each other than lets celebrate it.

This is a game we should win if we want to finish in the 8.

Therefore, warriors by 10. We never win games we should win.

I'm quietly confident about this one. We were the better team against the bunnies and they are far better than the raider.

Our record in Canberra is a concern though.

Warriors are usually dreadful in canberra. Pretty confident of a win, not to say this game should be taken lightly.

Why do people always get upset when their team (and in this case, it's my team too) don't play someone they deem worthy enough to be considered a rival?

It makes perfect sense having the high-drawing teams play each other as a priority.
