Canberra Raiders coach Ricky Stuart has been forced into a host of changes as he attempts to get his team's stuttering NRL campaign back on track.
The side has lost two on the trot and a seemingly comfortable clash with the Wests Tigers has suddenly become a significantly tougher challenge.
Club legend Jarrod Croker has been ruled out of Sunday's match at Canberra Stadium with a hamstring injury, while hooker Tom Starling will also miss the game through injury.
