A few important players missing from both sides but raiders to make home advantage count.

I have gone Raiders but I think it'll be fairly close. As Sheldon said mainly on home advantage.

raiders were very good and broncos poor last week, and with the raiders at home im sticking with the form guide and not going for an upset

raiders by 10

raiders will smash them

I don't think the Broncos were poor last week. That was a good game with the Cowboys.

It's also hard to guage just where the Raiders are at after facing a completely error-ridden Cronulla side. I expect our defense to be tested a lot more, which will inenvitably stifle our attack somewhat. I'll totally welcome another 40 points though.

RAIDERS!

canberra warm favourites with the bookies paying 1.50 whilst brisbane are 2.60 and a 4.5 pts start

alan tongue, josh dugan (50/50) brett white and terry campese are out for the raiders whilst brisbane have no hannant or hodges

they only played once last year, canberra beating brisbane 18 - 16 at suncorp

I think the Raiders will win this one. Orford will need to kick well but i think the Raiders just being at home will win it.
I didn't see them against the Sharks so i'm looking forward to seeing how they go, the Broncos coach will be under pressure if they do lose another.

Raiders by 12

When's Nick Kenny and Ben Hannatt back?

Broncos need to get Thaiday into the back row.

Hannatt and Hodges are due back next week, apparently. Not sure on Kenny.

Is that Macy Gray in the Broncos front row?

Broncos defence has been awesome, especially on their own line.

Raiders don't look up to much in offense though
