Canberra Raiders vs Sydney Roosters Preview

The Canberra Raiders have an opportunity to build momentum when they host a Sydney Roosters outfit searching for answers after consecutive defeats. Last season’s minor premiers have endured an inconsistent campaign but produced one of their better performances of the year in a convincing win over North Queensland. The Roosters, meanwhile, have gone from six straight victories to back-to-back losses, managing just 16 points across their last two outings. Sam Walker’s influence looms large after his impressive Origin debut, while young Raiders halfback Ethan Sanders continues to gain valuable experience in a difficult role. Recent history points towards another tight encounter, with ten of the last 14 meetings decided by six points or fewer. Canberra has also won four of the last five clashes between the sides, setting the stage for another fiercely contested battle in the capital.
