We could have some pretty good support from the crowd at Suncorp, even from the neutral supporters, which could assist with us bringing home the win.
My experience in QLD when I lived on the Gold Coast going to the pub to catch Raiders games was that there were generally more Raiders fans there watching the game if we were playing a Sydney team. There might be more younger kids in to the Roosters up in QLD due to their recent premierships but I'd think we still have more fans in the area.
Living up here I see plenty of guys wearing Raiders gear. I have 4 supporters in my place of work.

When we play at Robina or Suncorp there is always good support for the Raiders

Yeah, there's plenty of Raiders fans up here in Queensland. Don't forget before the Cowboys came about the Raiders were the best option for Queensland fans who didn't like the Broncos.

It's arguably game of the round as well, so I think we'll see a pretty massive crowd for it. I'm just really bummed we'll be without Bateman and BJ.

Leilua may be out three months with neck injury

Canberra centre Joey Leilua will meet specialists on Thursday evening to ascertain the extent of damage to his neck which has put a cloud over his immediate playing future.

"We've got another appointment today with Joey to get another opinion on where he's at and I'm hoping he'll have some news tomorrow with where he's at with his short-term future of footy," Ricky Stuart said. "There's talk it could be three months, it could be longer or good news could be around the corner and it could be less.

Canberra Raiders star Joey Leilua's NRL season could be over

Canberra Raiders star Joey Leilua's State of Origin hopes are in tatters with the centre facing at least three months on the sidelines due to a neck injury. Leilua went to see a specialist in Sydney on Thursday, with the Raiders expecting to know whether he needs surgery on a bulging disk.

"It will give Michael Oldfield a chance to cement a spot," Ricky Stuart said. "It comes back down to individual's contributions now and that determines whether you get picked again in NRL or not."

Canberra Raiders co-captain Jarrod Croker makes kids' dreams come true

Two headgears are better than one. Especially when they're delivered by Jarrod Croker.

"It's been a crazy week since the weekend," Luca and Archie's father David said. "Being a lifelong Raiders fan myself I was probably more nervous than the kids. The boys were super stoked with it. Archie took it to school yesterday and had the best show and tell. They got up this morning and they've still got the headgear on.

Canberra Raiders winger Nick Cotric's Origin hopes Turbo charged

The unfortunate neck injury for Joey Leilua looks to have cruelled his hopes of slotting in at right centre for the Blues. But Laurie Daley likes a couple of others. Nick Cotric. Jack Wighton.

"Jack possibly, given he can play a number of positions," Daley said. "Keary and Cody Walker would be in front of Jack as a five-eighth. As a utility, Jack would certainly be in the discussion."

Watching game 1 of the Magical Round, and there are already chunks of turf coming loose at Suncorp.

Just really thrilled to be part of the seventh game.

The Greenhouse Forum on Facebook

Hi all... The Canberra Raiders have asked us to let you all know that the captains' run on Saturday is a closed session. Members of the public will not be admitted. There is a members event on Friday afternoon... but that is now fully subscribed. This is the only event the Raiders will be hosting in Brisbane for fans.

Who knows what the crowd will be like. The reason Broncos are on FTA every other week is because QLDers (Brisbane especially) refuse to watch any other team, in great numbers.

I like the idea of a Magic Round in Canberra.

I’ll nominate a mid season Rep round with the Bye’s featuring 3 games for the entire round with matches between second string players.

Knowing the NRL’s organising abilities, they will realise too late that the Raiders have a bye that weekend.

New Civic Stadium would enhance Canberra's Magic Round chances

ACT Chief Minister Andrew Barr says he’s open to the idea of hosting a Magic Round, but the main focus is on supporting the Green Machine.

"While the magic round is an interesting idea, let's see how it goes," Barr said. "Our preference is to direct the bulk of government funding for rugby league to the Canberra Raiders, rather than other teams. It might be a future option to celebrate a new stadium in Canberra."

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.

If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

What Barr is saying is that when Canberra gets to host a magic round, he'll consider a new stadium.
So that sums up the chances of a new stadium being built.
