The Canberra Raiders will feature in their inaugural NRLW finals campaign this Friday night at Campbelltown Stadium, when they take on the Wests Tigers in a do-or-die elimination final.
Both the Raiders and Tigers have qualified for their first NRLW finals series since joining the competition in 2023.
It's deja vu for both these sides after facing each other only last weekend in the final round of the NRLW regular season, where the Raiders came out 22-10 winners at Leichhardt Oval.
Canberra coach Darrin Borthwick has named an unchanged lineup from the team that got the job done last weekend, given captain Simaima Taufa is still serving a three-match suspension.
