Wests Tigers vs Canberra Raiders Preview
The high-flying Canberra Raiders return from their bye brimming with confidence as they face the struggling Wests Tigers at Campbelltown Stadium on Friday night. Ricky Stuart’s side has surged into premiership contention, riding a four-game winning streak and claiming nine of their past 10 matches, including a commanding 36-12 win over South Sydney. The memory of last year’s heavy loss at this venue will serve as added motivation.
Meanwhile, the Tigers are desperate to halt a four-match slide that’s left them precariously placed just two points above the bottom of the ladder—and the top eight. Coach Benji Marshall has rung the changes, welcoming back Fonua Pole, Alex Twal and Tallyn Da Silva in a bid to spark a turnaround. The Raiders hand a debut to winger Jed Stuart following Savelio Tamale’s injury.
Form and firepower favour Canberra, but the Tigers will be hoping history and home turf count for something.
