Final score
Canberra Raiders 32
Gold Coast Titans 18
The Canberra Raiders will be looking to make it two wins in a row when they host the Gold Coast Titans in Round 9 at GIO Stadium. Join The Roar for live scores and a blog of the match from 3pm (AEST).
The Titans, on the other hand, will be looking to break a three-match losing streak, including last week’s one-point loss to Cronulla.
Both teams are currently two points out of the top eight
Canberra upset the Cowboys in Townsville last week, and coach Ricky Stuart has named an unchanged line-up.
Titans’ coach Garth Brennan has made one change to his interchange bench this week, with Ryan Simpkins taking Morgan Boyle’s spot.
Impressive young backrower Jai Arrow will be looking to continue his good early season form for the Titans to push his claims for a State of Origin debut next month. Bryce Cartwright will once again start at five-eighth as he continues to try and find his feet at his new club.
The last time the two teams met was back in Round 1 on the Gold Coast. The Raiders skipped out to an early 18-0 lead, but the Titans reeled them in to snatch a 30-28 victory. That was the first of three losses by the Raiders that were by fewer than two points, which got their 2018 season off to a slow start.
Prediction
Canberra by 7. They’ll be keen to erase the memories of their Round 1 loss to the Titans.
