-

This is a big week for league fans. There’s an NRL triple treat today, headlined by game two as the Bulldogs host the Raiders. The Warriors have three teams in action tomorrow, with the reserves in the New South Wales Cup playing the Wyong Roos in a top- of- the- table clash. Both have won seven of eight, with the Warriors a point ahead. The struggling under- 20s chase their first result of the Holden Cup season against the 12th- placed Roosters. The Warriors then run out against the Roosters just five days after their stirring Anzac Day effort in Melbourne. In tomorrow’s late game, the Dragons host the Storm. Come Friday, it’s all about the internatio­nal games, with the Anzac clashes in Canberra. The White Ferns and Jillaroos meet in the curtainrai­ser. New Zealand have won four of the last six meetings, including the 2008 World Cup final and last year’s test in Newcastle. The men then have their turn. Since 2010, Australia have won 14 and New Zealand four, but only three have been played on this side of the Tasman. The Kiwis last beat the Roos 26- 12 in the 2015 Anzac test at Suncorp. Roosters, Mt Smart Stadium 4pm.
