The latest report from the raiders.com.au reveals the heartwarming story of how Stewart's 'second dad' is nurturing the Raiders' rookies in their quest for greatness.

Stewart, long hailed as a rising star in the Rugby League world, was given his moment in the spotlight when he made his NRL debut in a thrilling round six clash against the Titans.

The pressure was on, but Stewart showed his mettle and helped secure a golden-point victory for his team.

After a couple more appearances in the top-flight, Stewart found himself back in reserve grade as regular Raiders fullback Jordan Rapana returned from a knee injury.

But this setback didn't dampen Stewart's spirits - he continued to train hard and hone his skills, knowing that his time would come again.

This recent accolade for Stewart follows in the footsteps of his teammate Ethan Strange, who won a similar award last year and has since become a mainstay in the first-grade squad.

With both young talents shining on the field, the Raiders are in good hands as they prepare for their upcoming showdown against the Wests Tigers.

The Canberra squad is now brimming with promising young players, including recent signings Ethan Sanders, Myles Martin, and Savelio Tamale.

These additions add to the already talented roster, with forward Jake Clydesdale also making waves in the club's system.

With this mix of experience and youth, the Raiders are poised for success in the NRL.

This influx of young talent marks a new era for the Raiders, who have traditionally struggled to attract players to the nation's capital.

But with Stewart leading the charge and mentoring the next generation of Rugby League stars, the future looks bright for Canberra.

As they say in the world of sports, the only way is up for the Raiders.
