Raiders coach Ricky Stuart has revealed he won't be pick Jarrod Croker next week to ensure the veteran celebrates his 300th game in Canberra.
Croker, 32, played his 299th NRL game in an emotional win over the Rabbitohs on Saturday, but he'll be rested against the Wests Tigers next Friday.
Stuart wants to set a ground record at GIO Stadium on June 9 when the veteran centre becomes the second person to play 300 games for Canberra.
