Ricky Stuart says Elliott Whitehead’s 150-game milestone will give the Canberra Raiders extra motivation to even the ledger against the North Queensland Cowboys on Thursday night.
The Cowboys thrashed the Raiders in round two, notching their first win of the year and biting back at NRL pundits who’d pegged them as whipping boys in the pre-season.
