The Canberra Raiders admit they’ve been frustrated by the instability in their spine this season but are confident they can win without Origin star Jack Wighton this Sunday.
Wighton has missed two games through suspension this year but the Raiders won both and presented with a chance to close in on the top eight, the Canberrans are confident they can do the same against the Sydney Roosters on Sunday.
“We won both weeks when Jack wasn’t there, so it gave us massive confidence that when he’s not there, we can still win,” forward Hudson Young said.
