Jamal Fogarty aims to lead Raiders back to finals after injury impacted their NRL performance.

Canberra Weekly

It's still a little numb, but Jamal Fogarty is banking on his golden arm to wrestle Canberra back into finals contention.

The Raiders have sorely missed Fogarty since the experienced halfback ruptured his biceps in their 34-10 loss to Brisbane in April.

After winning four of their opening six, his injury marked the beginning of a slide down the NRL ladder for the Green Machine, who now sit in 11th after four straight defeats.

Raiders aim to bounce back after tough losses, needing win to stay in top 8 contention.

The Raiders come off a much-needed Bye last week after a string of losses sees them sitting in 11th on the NRL ladder and needing to pick up a win to make sure that they can stay within two points of the top 8. The Green Machine have been pretty spluttering this season as they have only won once in their past six matches which was a golden point win over the Dolphins.

The Raiders whilst having not been awful have barely set the world on fire and just little things haven't clicked for them and that has been their downfall and the reason why they are looking unlikely to stick to the top 8.

The Raiders have received some massive boosts with Jamal Fogarty set to return after missing 12 weeks with a bicep injury meanwhile Hudson Young and Zac Hosking also return to the side with Emre Guler, Simi Sasagi and Albert Hopoate dropped to the reserves.

As they look to keep their finals hopes alive, the Raiders are set to welcome back a couple of handy inclusions for Friday's clash with the Warriors.

Halfback Jamal Fogarty returns for his first match since he ruptured his bicep against the Broncos in round 7. The 30-year-old was in career-best form prior to his injury and his absence was severely felt by the Raiders who have slid from 7th to 11th since he went out of the side.

Zac Hosking also returns from a long-term injury and is set to play his first match since round 6 off the bench. Hosking was key to the Raiders'...
