History & honours

The Raiders joined the NSWRL in 1982, a year after forming in Queanbeyan — the first team from the national capital to play at the sport's top level, and still the only one. The nickname “Green Machine” and the lime-green, white and navy colours have stuck for the whole four decades since.
