Canberra Raiders vs South Sydney Rabbitohs Preview

Canberra showed encouraging signs before the bye, with young half Ethan Sanders impressing behind a dominant forward pack. The Raiders continue to develop an inexperienced spine and will again look to establish themselves through the middle before allowing their playmakers to control territory.

South Sydney welcomes back Cody Walker, whose creativity could prove decisive if the Rabbitohs generate enough ruck speed. The visitors possess the experience to absorb Canberra’s early intensity before applying pressure of their own. With both sides still chasing finals positions, this shapes as one of the more evenly matched contests of the weekend.
