Stuart has limited options to boost struggling Raiders, with Whitehead possibly returning for experience.
Ricky Stuart warned the cavalry isn't returning for the Green Machine any time soon, but he does have a couple of options to boost the struggling Canberra Raiders.
Elliott Whitehead, Albert Hopoate, Zac Woolford and Nick Cotric could all be options for the Canberra Raiders side to face Manly at Brookvale on Friday night.
Stuart said Whitehead (calf) could be back for just his second game of the year, replacing Simi Sasagi, which would add valuable experience to a young side that currently only has three players older than 25.
