As for the Bulldogs and Raiders, both have everything to play for; I suspect we’ll see some fireworks that could reshape the competition’s landscape.
So, will the Bulldogs find their footing, or will the Raiders reign supreme? One thing’s for certain — the NSW Cup is no longer just a sideshow. It’s the main event, and it’s about to blow the roof off.
