Warriors want revenge against Raiders

Warriors want revenge against Raiders

The Warriors.

The Warriors want revenge against the Raiders, who they were humbled by in Round 11 by way of a 38‑12.

The performance was one of the Kiwi side's worst of 2016 and proved to be a turning point in their season, having gone on to win four of six games since then.

Prop Sam Lisone says it was impossible to avoid thoughts of getting one back over the Green Machine this time around.

The Warriors' pack felt they were bullied off the park the last time they faced Canberra, with none of the players managing to run for more than 129 metres.

Halfback Shaun Johnson says fifth‑placed Canberra would present a unique test for his side, as the Warriors aim to finish the round inside the NRL top eight.

The Warriors clash with the Raiders at 5pm today while the Titans go head to head with the Eels at 7.30pm.

Meanwhile the Storms face the Roosters at 9.30 tonight.
