Round 7 of the Junior Representative season sees our Harold Matthews and SG Ball sides travel up to Belmore Sports Ground to take on the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs.
Canberra's Harold Matthews side is sitting in 9th position on the ladder and just one point outside of the top eight. A win over the Bulldogs would see the Green Machine secure a spot in the top eight however it won't be an easy task with Canterbury positioned at third on the competition ladder having only lost one game all year.
In the SG Ball, the Raiders are doing marvellously well. The team is sitting in second place on the ladder, just one point behind the top of the table Balmain Tigers. The Raiders are heavily favoured to beat the 13th placed Bulldogs, however Coach Dean Souter has drilled into his side all year the importance of not taking any team lightly.
