Canberra Raiders face Canterbury Bulldogs in Magic Round opener, despite mixed form without key players.
The Canberra Raiders and Canterbury Bulldogs will open Magic Round for the second year in a row, with the two sides to do battle on Friday evening.
The game will be held on Friday, May 17, with kick-off set for 6pm (AEST) at Suncorp Stadium.
Canberra have been difficult to get a read on, however. Forced to play, for the time being, without injured veteran halfback Jamal Fogarty, the green machine had fallen to the Cronulla Sharks 40-0 the week prior, but still sit inside the top eight heading into Round 11 with a five-and-four record.
