NRLW Match Preview: Raiders v Eels
The Canberra Raiders NRLW team is set to seek redemption this Saturday afternoon against the Eels at GIO Stadium Canberra.
Coach Darrin Borthwick has made notable changes to the lineup, moving Chey Robins-Reti back to center and giving debut opportunities to 18-year-old fullback Elise Simpson.
Meanwhile, the Eels are regrouping after facing a significant 14-0 defeat to the Warriors in round two, where they were held scoreless.
Last season, in their previous encounter, the Eels narrowly edged out the Raiders with an 18-16 victory at GIO Stadium in round eight.
Both teams feature strong players who thrive in physical encounters, with Holyman and Albert playing crucial roles for their sides as they aim to dominate the midfield.
