[Valheru]

I tipped Canberra last week with confidence but they were trash and should have lost.

Have to go souths here who are at least having a crack

 

[yobbo84]

The Raiders should win this, but I hope Jack Wighton sets up 4 tries and scores 3 more just for Ricky's reaction

 

[Saxon]

Two pretty ordinary defensive teams playing in vague hope of finishing at the bottom of the 8.
Raiders to squeak through in the cold at home.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Could argue both teams were given victories last week by their opponents. When’s Latrell back? If he’s there will probably tip souths, if not think raiders.

 

[JamesRustle]

Wighton to show Ricky and the Viking mongs he was right to leave raiders for rabbits in order to play finals footy.

Rabbits by 20.

Raiders fans well know that Simple Jack could easily setup 4 tries. Two of those for the opposition though. Hoping for a Rocks and Diamonds performance from him for old times sake.

I reckon Souths are playing it coy and Latrell is done for 2024.

Anyway it was at least 4 weeks so not for a while yet.

 

[Chief_Chujo]

I had a dream last night that Simple Jack scored the first try and then proceeded to give the finger to the northern end fans for a solid 5 minutes. I was incensed the ref was allowing it. He was also wearing a bucket hat for some reason.

 

[Bobby DIGital]

Ethan Strange to smash Wighton at least once.
