Sydney Roosters -4.5 v Canberra ($1.90)
The Roosters are missing James Tedesco, one of the premier players in the premiership, but it is Canberra who are taking a bigger hit with Origin absences with their two best players in Jack Wighton and Josh Papalii missing. The Roosters have won six of their last eight against Canberra. The Raiders are horrific home underdogs covering just one of nine in the spot.
