Kaeo Weekes and Ethan Strange share just 20 games between them, but they will be given the keys to the Green Machine for the bulk of the season after Jamal Fogarty had surgery this week.

Add in rookie fullback Chevy Stewart, who will be playing just his third game on Sunday, and the Raiders have the greenest spine in the competition.
