The Canberra Raiders will look to stay unbeaten when they take on a New Zealand Warriors outfit that’s impressed so far. Stay up to date with their NRL clash with live scores on The Roar from 3pm (AEDT).
It’s been so far, so good for the Green Machine in 2021. They were never going to be seriously challenged by the Tigers in Round 1 and got the job done in clinical fashion, but were pushed to the edge by Cronulla last week. In reality, the Raiders were lucky to have escaped the win on Sunday night – with Chad Townsend’s wayward kicking for goal proving the difference.
Written off by many at the start of the year, the Warriors have actually proven surprisingly competitive under new coach Nathan Brown and will look to make a statement this afternoon. They surprised everyone by dominating the Titans in Round 1 and, although they went down, lost no admirers with their efforts against Newcastle last Friday night.
Canberra picked up wins in both clashes against the Warriors last year, winning 20-6 in Round 2 and 26-14 in Round 19. The New Zealanders had won on four of their previous six visits to Australia’s capital prior to last year’s loss, however.
