The Canberra Raiders will welcome back tackling machine Shaun Fensom from his one game suspension this weekend, while Bill Tupou has been named for the Raiders on the wing to cover for the injured Edrick Lee.
The return of Fensom sees Paul Vaughan move back onto the Raiders interchange bench, with Shannon Boyd keeping his starting spot ahead of David Shillington who made his return from a rib injury last weekend.
Edrick Lee will meet with a specialist later this week to determine the extent of his foot injury, after undergoing scans today. At this stage it is not known how long Lee will be out for.
Lee’s injury opens the door for Bill Tupou to return to the Raiders line-up, after some strong performances for Mounties in the NSW Cup.
