The Newcastle Knights travel to Canberra to take on the hot and cold Canberra Raiders. Join The Roar for live scores from 3pm AEST.
The fifth-placed Raiders are well positioned in the finals race but have a number of teams nipping at their heels, including the Knights who have won three straight to move to 10th.
Ricky Stuart’s men are looking to rectify one of their biggest bugbears this year – a poor second-half record in which they have been outscored by 24 tries – against the visitors.
They’ve conceded the first try of the second half in seven of their last eight games, with four of those coming inside the first five minutes.
Stuart acknowledged it was an issue but pointed to his team’s fighting spirit to keep them in matches, like when they scored two tries in the final two minutes to force golden point against the Warriors last weekend.
Newcastle veteran forward Adam Elliott has escaped with a fine despite being charged for a high tackle in the win over Melbourne.
Daniel Saifiti is out with a thigh problem, replaced by twin Jacob in the starting front row.
The Green Machine keeps on keeping on while the Knights are hitting their straps. This could be the sneaky best game of the round. Raiders by 4
