Canberra Raiders vs New Zealand Warriors Preview
The best contest of the round could materialise in the nation’s capital on Friday evening when the resurgent Raiders takes on the Warriors.
I had them finishing in the bottom two this season, and their form through the first five or six weeks of their 2023 made me look like a genius.
Fast-forward to Round 15 though and the Raiders have climbed into sixth, having won seven of their last eight games. Wowee.
They survived a spirited charge from a somewhat in-form Wests Tigers last week, and they’re always worth consideration at home during the cold months.
The Warriors slide in form was seemingly ended last week when they delivered the Dolphins a hefty defeat over in New Zealand.
It is sometimes tough to know what we are going get from the Warriors, but their best is certainly good enough to win something like this.
Six of the last seven games between these two sides have gone under the total match points line, so I’m going to look that way again.
