We love the mighty Canberra Raiders
The Raiders thrashed the Broncos 28-4, ending their winning streak, aided by Charlotte Basham's double and strong team performance.
Two-horse race my posterior.
A Charlotte Basham double has fired the Canberra Raiders' 28-4 smashing of the previously unbeaten Brisbane Broncos.
It ended the Broncos' 15-game winning streak that included last season's NRLW grand final.
And to be honest, they should've won by more but for some loose ball handling in the first half.
The Canberra Raiders aim to prove the NRLW isn't just between two teams by challenging Brisbane this weekend.
This is the Canberra Raiders' chance to show the NRLW isn't a two-horse race.
Raiders coach Darrin Borthwick is confident they can knock off ladder-leading Brisbane this weekend - even after their collapse against previously winless North Queensland last weekend.
The Green Machine have been unable to beat the Broncos in their previous three attempts.
Not only that, those three losses have been by an average score of 37-19.
Canberra Raiders training focuses on haircuts after back-to-back losses, highlighted by missed opportunities against Cronulla Sharks.

The Raiders have fallen to back-to-back losses after the Cronulla Sharks broke their NRLW drought with a 22-10 win at Canberra Stadium on Saturday.
But it could so easily have been a different tale. Mackenzie Wiki was awarded a try in the opening half - only for the bunker to intervene after footage revealed the Raiders winger's hair had brushed the sideline in a cruel twist of fate.
Then Sharks fullback Jada Taylor denied Simaima Taufa by the barest of margins after dislodging the ball just as the Canberra lock was crashing over the line.
