It might just be a trial but there's definitely a lot of positives to take from Canberra Raiders' 38-16 demolition of Parramatta in Sydney on Saturday.
Raiders fans couldn't hide their excitement on social media as an energised group of youngsters ran rings around the Eels, with an especially lethal five-try second half showcasing the Green Machine's bright future.
Questions over the key positions up for grabs were addressed as Kaeo Weekes looked the part at five-eighth, and Chevy Stewart seemed to emerge ahead of Xavier Savage in the fullback role.
