Canberra Raiders vs Dolphins prediction
The Dolphins are starting to cook with confidence sky high within their camp and all the momentum with them. Three consecutive wins and an offence firing on all cylinders has seen them steadily rise up the table and they travel to Canberra Raiders in buoyant mood. Whilst the Raiders can stop them in their tracks, it depends on what sort of performance we’re set to see from them in this one.
Canberra’s backline are in for a very difficult challenge containing what has been such a red-hot Dolphins attack and it would be no surprise to see them overwhelmed over the course of 80 minutes. Either-way, we should see a high-scoring encounter between these two sides and backing over 50.5 points to be scored warrants serious consideration.
Canberra Raiders vs Dolphins tip: Over 50.5 total points
