The Greater Sydney Rams will be searching for their first win of the 2015 NRC season when they host Queensland Country, who are in the same boat. Join The Roar from 3pm AEST for live scores.
Off the back of a 32-point thumping at the hands of the University of Canberra Vikings last week, the GSR Rams will be looking to put negative results behind and come back with a victory over the struggling Country.
The Rams had an inconsistent 2014 season, and last year’s form is seeming to carry over to 2015, positive starts to games followed by rough losses seem to be a reoccurring theme for the Rams.
Queensland are having problems of their own, and despite dangerous bursts of play every game the Country have failed to win a game so far this season.
The only positive to come out of the Country’s 20-point loss to Brisbane City last week was Sam Greene’s impressive kicking form, which Queensland will need to get past a desperate Rams side.
Greene’s goal kicking has drastically improved since the Country’s first game, having not missed a single conversion in Country’s last two games (8/8).
The Country will need more than Greene’s kicking skills if they wish to get past the Rams, however Queensland should be able to get it done in what is shaping up to be a tight affair.
Prediction: Country by 3
