Preview - The Tigers will be hoping to snap a 2 game losing streak when they tackle the Raiders at Cambellotwn Stadium on Sunday. The Tigers blew a winning position against the Sharks losing 24-16 despite leading 10-2 at halftime in a match they were dominating. The Riaders though are the martyrs at blowing games from winning positions and they did it again last week going down 21-20 to  Penrith in game they led by 6 points with under 6 minutes to play. 

Wests Tigers Scouting Report - Ivan Cleary has made a change in a key positions with Corey Thompson moving back  to fullback and Tui Lolohea dropped after some sluggish perofmrnaues. Malakai Watene-Zelezniak returns on the wing with Kevin Naiqama holding his spot on the other wing. Matt McIlwrick comes in on the bench, Elijah Taylor has been named at hooker. Robbie Rochow also makes a return in the starting side and Josh Aloiai moves to the bench.

Canberra Raiders Scouting Report -  Ricky Stuart will be delighted to have his gun hooker back with Josh Hodgson named to play his first game of the season at hooker after tearing his ACL during last year's World Cup. Jordan Rapana's is out long term with a hamstring injury with Michael Oldfield given his chance on the wing. Joseph Tapine is back from suspension in the second row and Iosia Soliola moves to prop with Dunamis Lui going to the bench.

Verdict - Raiders by 4-12

Ill go for the Raiders here as they have scored more then 140 points in hitter last 3 victories over the Tigers. The Raiders are a hard side to trust in any circumstances however with Josh Hodgson back they have the firepower to beat a Tigers side struggling for any rhythm in attack.
