  • The St George Illawarra Dragons have lost their last two NRL games, conceding 82 points across that term; the last time they lost more consecutive games was a six-game streak to end the 2023 season.
  • The St George Illawarra Dragons have scored the opening points of the game only seven times this NRL season, the fewest of any team in the competition, but have gone on to win five of those seven games.
  • The Canberra Raiders have won their last two NRL games despite scoring just 36 points across that frame; the last time they won more consecutive games in the competition was a three-game stretch from Round 17 to 19 in 2023 which included a 36-26 win against the St George Illawarra Dragons.
