An away win first up in 1984 foreshadowed a much improved season, a positive winning record (13–11) snagging a playoff for fifth versus Souths.

The Raiders' largest ever winning margin was 68 points, when they defeated the Parramatta Eels 68-0 during the 1993 NSWRL season. What a game of footy that was. Having lost star players such as Schifcofske, Smith, Croker and Woolford in key positions, the Raiders found themselves with a new captain in Alan Tongue relying on young, inexperienced players such as Todd Carney, William Zillman and Michael Dobson to step up and take on more prominent roles within the team. The Raiders started season 2006 heavy favourites to run last, but despite this pessimism and heavy losses to the Knights and the Roosters early on, fought back and guaranteed themselves a finals berth with a round to play.

NRL finals 2020 as it happened: Remarkable Raiders send Roosters packing. Canberra will face Melbourne next week - the same opponent they stunned in last year's prelim. The lime green was chosen as the main colour as it differentiated the side from the colours of other clubs. Following the Grand Final win, the Raiders then went on to play in England at Old Trafford in the official World Club Challenge against Stones Bitter Championship winners Widnes. Another early blow to the Raiders at the start of the 2013 season was the irresponsible behaviour of up and coming superstar Josh Dugan whom was sacked from the club for disciplinary reasons after he and teammate Blake Ferguson missed a team recovery session in favour of spending the day drinking on the rooftop of Blake Fergusons home. The Canberra Raiders 2013 campaign began with two demoralising defeats to Penrith Panthers and Gold Coast Titans, only managing to score 10 points in the two games while conceding 68. McGrath finished with 41 points in his first and only season with the Raiders. In 2014, Canberra hired Ricky Stuart as their new head coach. It was the try that snuffed out Canberra’s hopes of a grand final appearance and sealed Melbourne’s trip to the big dance and replays showed a blatant forward pass missed in the lead-up. Though 1986 was similarly disappointing, the team had a core group of players, such as Queensland trio Mal Meninga, Gary Belcher, Steve Walters, and John Ferguson who would greatly influence the coming decade. Wiki's loss, in particular, was a bitter pill to swallow for many Raiders fans, as it was found that the New Zealand Warriors had significantly breached the salary cap in signing him (the Warriors eventually paid the price for this, being docked four competition points at the beginning of the 2006 season). There's 25 minutes still to play at the SCG. On the other side of the ledger, the Raiders are on a roll. That's all for tonight's blog. Storm star Dale Finucane is bidding to return from a calf injury in time for the preliminary final, while Raiders forward Ryan Sutton is a chance to return from a knee injury. Many fans believed the achievements of 2003 would be improved in the following years. Cummins later ruled that it was not a repeat set and it was a handover to the Sydney Roosters. Despite going down 25-16 in their first finals match against Eastern Suburbs, the Raiders rallied to defeat South Sydney (46–12) and Easts again (32–24) in the Preliminary Final. The fallout from the salary cap scandal saw several players leave the club, most prominently Glenn Lazarus, Brent Todd, David Barnhill, Nigel Gaffey and Paul Martin. This heralded a period of great success for the club, with five grand Final appearances and three premierships in eight years. What a game of footy that was. They have competed in Australasia's elite rugby league competition, the National Rugby League (NRL) premiership since 1982. However, both, particularly Smith, proved formidable campaigners, and the Raiders were joint competition leaders in Round 10. The club defeated the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks in the qualifying final but were eliminated the following week by South Sydney in the semi final.[8]. Despite a disappointing season for the raiders losing to many close games the Raiders were able to beat the Melbourne Storm for the first time in 14 games and 7 years 26–16 in round 16 to keep their slim finals hopes alive.
