Canberra Raiders face New Zealand Warriors in Las Vegas, expecting record crowd; teams have contrasted past performances.
The Canberra Raiders are set to kick off their 2025 NRL campaign with a showdown against the New Zealand Warriors at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas this Sunday, with a record crowd expected to be in attendance.
"Just like a well-oiled machine, the Raiders are ready to hit the ground running once again this season.
We've only dropped one round one game since 2019," said Raiders coach, Ricky Stuart.
On the other hand, the Warriors faced difficulties on the road in 2024, managing to secure just four wins out of 13 games played outside of New Zealand.
