The Raiders will face a reasonable level of difficulty in their first five games of the season. While they will only play two top eight teams, they will have the added challenge of playing three of those games on the road. The Green Machine will play at home only once during the opening month of the 2024 NRL Season.
Canberra Raiders first five games of NRL Season 2024
- Knights (A)
- Tigers (H)
- Warriors (A)
- Sharks (A)
- Eels (H)
Facing the Knights, Warriors, and Sharks on the road, the Raiders will need to bring their A-game to secure wins in these challenging matchups, especially across The Ditch in New Zealand against a resurgent Warriors outfit.
The home games against the Tigers and Eels could serve as important opportunities for the team to establish a strong foundation and gain valuable points in the early stages of the season. The Green Machine will surely look to make Bruce "GIO" Stadium a daunting prospect for visiting sides with more clashes to occur at their home fortress later in the season.
