Canberra Raiders start 2026 season poorly, with one win and three losses after a 34-22 defeat to Cronulla Sharks.
The Canberra Raiders have endured a frustrating start to their 2026 campaign, slipping to one win and three losses after a 34-22 defeat to the Cronulla Sharks on Sunday afternoon.
It marks a stark contrast to last year's minor premiers, who have struggled to find consistency in the opening month of the season.
Their latest setback was shaped early, with prop Corey Horsburgh sin-binned in just the third minute.
The early dismissal proved costly, as Canberra conceded 12 points during his absence and was forced to chase the game from the outset.
