The Raiders take on the Dragons this Saturday as part of The Knock on Effect NSW Cup Magic Round.

All six Round 11 games will be held at North Sydney Oval this weekend, with triple-headers on both Saturday and Sunday.

Currently sitting in third place on the ladder, the Raiders have been in good form so far this season with six wins, two losses and a draw.

The side are coming off a bye, so will be raring to go against the Dragons.

Coach Brock Shepherd has been forced into just one change this week, with fullback Manaia Waitere missing due to suspension.

James Schiller has been in dangerous form since coming back into the Cup side, while winger Jed Stuart has scored three tries in two games.

This week's opponents meanwhile sit in seventh spot on the ladder and will be hoping to keep their momentum going after defeating the Rabbitohs 26-6 last weekend.

The Dragons have many players in their side with NRL experience, including the Feagai twins, Ben Murdoch-Masila and Michael Molo, so will be a dangerous outfit.

Kick off for the game is 3pm on Saturday, with the match available to stream live on NSWRL TV.
