Source: www.raiders.com.auThe Canberra Raiders have been forced to make changes to their team for their round 24 clash against the Gold Coast, with injuries to Josh Dugan and Josh Miller forcing a reshuffle of the side to take on the Titans at Skilled Park.
David Milne returns to the NRL team this weekend for the first time since round two in what will be his 50th NRL match, after Dugan was ruled out for one week with a groin strain.
Joe Picker comes back onto the interchange bench this weekend for Josh Miller who could miss the remainder of the season with a collarbone injury, with Michael Picker retaining his spot on the bench after a solid debut performance last weekend.
Jarrad Kennedy has been named 18th man for the match and will travel with the team to the Gold Coast.
Raiders Coach David Furner said the loss of Dugan for a week was disappointing, but said he expects David Milne to step up against the Titans on Saturday night.
"Josh (Dugan) has had a tough year with injury and it's disappointing for him and the team for him to miss out this week after he was our best player last weekend," Furner said. "David Milne will be excited though to play in his 50th NRL match which is something he probably thought he wouldn't be able to achieve this year.
"We've had a tough run with injury this season so Dave gets another opportunity and his form playing for Woden in the local competition has warranted his selection."
Furner said the loss of Josh Miller was another injury that's disappointing for the team, but said he has the confidence in Joe Picker having a big game on his return, especially playing alongside his brother Mick for the first time.
"Josh (Miller) has been a tremendous player for the club and it looks like there is a possibility he won't play again this year through injury which would be a tough way for him to leave the club, but there's still a very slim chance he could play in the last round," he said. "Joe Picker though will be keen to come back into the team and play alongside his brother Mick who had a strong debut last weekend.
"Mick showed last weekend that he could come out of the local competition from Goulburn and play well and this is hopefully what we'll see from David Milne this weekend."

Source: www.raiders.com.auThe Canberra Raiders have announced today that David Milne will remain with the club in 2011 on a new one year deal.
Milne has been in strong form for the Raiders feeder Club Souths Logan in the past few weeks after returning from a long term groin injury and this form has seen him secure an extra season with the Raiders.
Milne said he's happy to be remaining with the club next season and hopes the one year deal can help him further his career.
"I'm just looking to try and force my way back into the NRL team somewhere and now that I've recovered from injury it will be my main focus as I head into next year," Milne said.
"The one year deal gives me a chance to once again prove myself at this level and if I can it will hopefully lead to more in the future."
Raiders CEO Don Furner said Milne's retention was an important one for the club, as they look to finalise their squad for the 2011 season.
"David has been with the club for a few years now and has always made an impact for us when he gets a chance in the NRL team," Furner said.
"Injury has set him back a little bit over the past couple of seasons, but we believe he'll be back to his best by the start of 2011 and once again pushing for a position in the top grade."
