Nth Queensland Cowboys vs Canberra Raiders Preview

The Raiders have fallen out of the eight following back-to-back losses to the Panthers and Eels and it is fair to say Saturday’s trip to Townsville is far from a given.

Remaining at home for the second week in a row, the Cowboys will be looking to build on the momentum of last week’s big win over the Bulldogs as they now shoot for three in a row.

While Jason Taumalolo still looks a week or two away from returning, Todd Payten can rest a little easier knowing the Raiders head to North Queensland with their own growing list of injury concerns.

Fullback Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad suffered a neck injury last week in the loss to Paramatta, while Bailey Simonsson is set to miss Round 7 after failing his HIA.

The loss of both players couldn’t have come at a worse time for head coach Ricky Stuart with his side suddenly struggling to score points.

Canberra has combined for only 20 points over the last fortnight – a worrying sign with the Raiders also struggling on the defensive end, particularly during the second half.

With all that in mind, the Cowboys do look an enticing bet as the underdog at the line to at least keep things tight.
