My Prediction
Canberra Raiders by 3Alright, let's cut to the chase here. We've got the Sydney Roosters and the Canberra Raiders locking horns in this round 13 clash. If we glance at the past matchups, well, Roosters might be remembering those matches as a nightmare, having lost two out of their last three encounters against the Raiders, something they'd hope to change this time around.
Skimming through the regular season records, the Raiders boast a pretty impressive 9 wins out of 12, crowning them the obvious season performers compared to the Roosters who've had a mixed season with an even-handed split at 5-6.
Making a quick pit stop at the recent results, the Raiders have had three wins in their last five outings, which adds to their confidence levels. The Roosters seems to have sprouted wings in their last match, but their inconsistent performances throughout the season hinder me from calling this a bounce back.
Hate to be a party pooper, but the hens don't seem to be ruling the roost in their NRL standing either, waddling at 12th place, whereas the Raiders are tearing up the charts resting comfortably at the 4th spot.
Intuition, observation, some might call it guesswork, but at this point, it's hard not to lean towards the Canberra Raiders. The Roosters seem a little lost at sea, and it's going be a tough swim against the current for them in this case.
