The Canberra Raiders women's team is slowly taking shape, and we can reveal the club is already planning for a blockbuster double-header for their first home game.
The NRL has been dragging its feet on the women's competition preparations, failing to publish a draw and the collective bargaining agreement means clubs can't officially sign players yet.
But we hear the Raiders women will start their season on the road towards the end of July and then return home for what looms as a special afternoon on July 29.
