THE TEAM NEWS
NEW ZEALAND WARRIORS
- New Zealand Warriors came within seconds of landing a brilliant win on the road against Melbourne Storm but conceded with the last play of the game to suffer a second straight loss.
- The Warriors will believe a first win of the campaign is not far away but will be desperate to get off the mark here as they host Canberra Raiders with Wayde Egan potentially aiding their cause having been a late withdrawal last week.
Starting 13: 1. Taine Tuaupiki 2. Dallin Watene-Zelezniak 3. Rocco Berry 4. Roger Tuivasa-Sheck 5. Marcelo Montoya 6. Luke Metcalf 7. Shaun Johnson 8. Addin Fonua-Blake 9. Wayde Egan 10.

CANBERRA RAIDERS
- Canberra Raiders made it back-to-back wins to begin the season as they got the better of Wests Tigers last week, running out comfortable victors.
- The Raiders will aim to make it three successive wins as they travel across the pond and are able to call upon the services of skipper Elliott Whitehead for the first time this season.
Starting 13: 1. Jordan Rapana 2. Nick Cotric 3. Matthew Timoko 4. Albert Hopoate 5. Xavier Savage 6. Ethan Strange 7. Jamal Fogarty 8. Josh Papali'i 9. Danny Levi 10. Joseph Tapine 11.

THE PREDICTION
New Zealand Warriors could well be two from two but instead, find themselves without a win in the NRL so far this season. They will aim to get off the mark as they host an undefeated Canberra Raiders side that will hold no fear here having performed well in the opening two rounds but this is likely to be their biggest test to date and the Kiwi outfit will have a real point to prove so side with the hosts to get the job done.
TIP: NEW ZEALAND WARRIORS TO WIN
