THE PREDICTION
Canberra Raiders will need to go up a few gears if they are to get back to winning ways as they take on Melbourne Storm in what looks like a very difficult matchup. The Raiders fell to 2-2 for the season with a loss to Manly Sea Eagles last week and now come up against a side that were brilliant in their last outing. The Storm ran out 44-0 winners against Canterbury Bulldogs and while this will be a tougher game for them, it is hard to see beyond them collecting another win which would make it five successive victories over the Raiders.
