Preview:
The Raiders showed some fight last week against the Cowboys, but it wasn’t enough to overcome a sloppy defensive performance.
Canberra struggled with North Queensland’s forwards all game long, and although the Bulldogs find themselves sitting bottom on the ladder, the Raiders need to be wary of Canterbury with so many big-name players out due to Origin.
Having now won just one of their last five games, things aren’t about to get any easier following Josh Hodgson’s broken thumb. The likes of Nick Cotric, Jack Wighton and Josh Papalii have all been selected for Origin, leaving Canberra looking a little thin in all areas.
The Dogs, on the other hand, have only lost Dylan Napa to the Maroons’ bench, giving reason to the handy odds on offer.
Canterbury has won only one of their last five games against the Raiders, and with a sloppy 1-6 record as the away underdog, you can’t take on the Dogs head-to-head.
Instead, take faith in Canterbury’s 7-5 record as the line underdog. Canberra are 6-5 on the back of a loss, but if the Dogs can get Jayden Okunbor involved early, they could keep this close.
Tip: Canberra Raiders at $1.90
Value Tip: First Try Scorer: Michael Oldfield at $9.50
