Austbrokers Canberra Raiders Cup Round 15 Preview

The Queanbeyan derby headlines this weekend's action, while the West Belconnen Warriors will be trying to bounce back from their recent losses as they host the Goulburn Workers Bulldogs.

Queanbeyan Kangaroos v Queanbeyan Blues – 3pm, Saturday 21 July – Seears Workwear Oval / Live Stream

Round 15 sees the Queanbeyan derby as the match of the round as the Kangaroos welcome the Blues on Saturday afternoon.

The Kangaroos are coming off a big 46-12 win over the Yass Magpies and will be looking to add a third straight win this weekend to all but secure their place in the top four.

Kangaroos prop Josh Hitchins believes that the match will be a tight affair despite the Blues recent form.

"I reckon they'll be a different team come this weekend," Hitchins said. "The last derby was good but with it being at our home ground this weekend it will be much better.

"We have the charity day for men's testicular cancer so we'll be wearing purple jerseys."

The Blues sit three points outside the top four after a 46-16 drubbing at the hands of the Woden Valley Rams and need a win to keep their finals hopes alive.
