And you thought the Dragons were peeved with Melbourne? The Raiders have beaten the Storm just four times since 2003 – a run that included 14 straight defeats.

If Melbourne produce another lacklustre start, similar to their now infamous clash with the Dragons, surprise packets Canberra will back themselves to seal an upset. But as you can imagine, stats have not been kind to the Raiders.

They are on a two-game losing streak – and have dropped their past six home games. Oh, and the last time they took on Melbourne, they were thrashed 68-4.

Key: Anthony Milford’s mindset. The Canberra playmaker appears to be in a representative tug-of-war between Queensland, Australia and Samoa after scintillating early-season form but must get his head right if the Raiders are to be a chance of an upset.
