The Raiders have named an unchanged starting line-up to face the New Zealand Warriors at Robina Stadium on Saturday.

Co-captain Jarrod Croker and fullback Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad have been cleared to play after failing to finish round one with head knocks, while Ryan Sutton returns from suspension via an extended bench.

The Raiders will be looking to drown the outside noise surrounding the coronavirus pandemic by kicking off their season with two straight wins for the first time since 2016.

The club has had to relocate their round-six clash with the New Knights from Wagga Wagga to Canberra to assist with planning amid the league's management of the coronavirus outbreak.

Wagga Wagga City Council and the Raiders have committed to host an NRL match in the city next year instead.

The second-round match will be played in closed stadium to limit the spread of the coronavirus.

"I have spoken to both the ACT Government and the NRL and they are both supportive of this decision," Raiders chief executive Don Furner said.

"At this stage the match will be transferred to Canberra Stadium for the same day and time. Whether that will be in front of spectators or behind closed doors, remains to be seen."

The NRL has gone into lockdown from round two as per federal government advice about large gatherings and the potential spread of coronavirus.

The Raiders are expected to fly to the Gold Coast on the day of the game and leave that night to avoid further risks of contamination.

"We're going into uncharted territory playing in front of no crowd as well as flying up and back in the same day," Stuart said.

"They're all the little things we'll overcome. We've just got to focus and make sure we're professional towards our preparation and concentrate on our second game of the season.

"While we're in a difficult position, we're privledged to be in a love we love and look forward to everyday.

"We have to do everything we possibly can to keep working. We're no different to other businesses, from plumbers to bricklayers, to bankers.

"We're a business that needs us to be on the field and we need to do everything we possibly can to keep playing football."
