The Raiders are set to radically overhaul their away game logistics to increase post-match sleeping hours in a bid to maximise recovery on the road. Canberra is looking into the possibility of staying overnight in Sydney after fixtures in the Harbour City, rather than taking a coach back to the capital which can mean arriving home as late as 3am. Under the new plan being looked into by coaching and medical staff, Raiders players would stay in a Sydney hotel immediately after a match, and head home early the following morning. It would mark a significant shift in the way the club approaches Sydney games, which for most of the club's history has involved traveling back to Canberra on a bus post-match. "You're better off having a good sleep after a game, your best rehabilitation and recovery is your sleep after a game," Raiders coach Ricky Stuart said.
