Bloody strong team imo... Dugan was a class above the rest last week against the knights, and Brophy is a quality talent... Thompson also looks too good for U/20s and will probably be in FG before the season is out and Fensom locking the scrum is another quality back rower, the halves are slick and effective. Mick Picker played the house down last week... good honest front row also.
Penrith IMO are the team to beat in 2008, so a good hit out for the Raiders this week. A win would be sensational but ill be happy if we push them and its a good close tussle.
The Raider's are in thise U20's up to their eyeballs... if penrith and parra faulter, they are one of few sides imo, who could swoop and take the crown
