Manly Sea Eagles vs Canberra Raiders Preview
The Sea Eagles have gone to another level recently, but we’ll get a real indication of their Top 4 prospects when they take on the Canberra Raiders on Thursday night without Tommy Turbo.
Tom Trbojevic is head and shoulders above every other rugby league player in the world, and he once again starred in Manly 66-0 thrashing of the Bulldogs in Round 16.
With he and DCE out on Origin duties, Des Hasler has his work cut out for him but thankfully for the Sea Eagles faithful, they’re drawn to play an out of form opponent.
The Raiders’ 2021 campaign has been nothing short of awful, they’ve had plenty of problems on and off the field and their premiership window appears to have closed.
They enter this match off the back of a 44-6 hiding at the hands of our Neds Titans and I can’t see them doing enough to turn it around this week, even against a weakened opponent.
