SBW return adds spice to the rivalry:

https://www.nrl.com/news/2020/09/05/sbw-return-adds-spice-to-roosters-raiders-rivalry/

According to the NRL website, we are starting as $1.39 favourites, with the Raiders at $3.00. I thought it would be closer than this - perhaps around the $1.90 to $2.00 mark, for instance.

Is it a concern that SBW was gassed after 10 mins ?

Only 3 weeks from the semis I doubt we'll see him play any more than 25 off the bench this season.
