Hookers Mitch Rein and Josh Hodgson go head‑to‑head as the Dragons take on the Raiders tonight.

These two No.9s are hardworking, grafting types, solid in defence and scheming in attack.

Rein has made more tackles than Hodgson so far in 2016, but Hodgson has been more potent in attack with six try assists to Rein's none.

It is in attack where the Raiders look to have the upper hand, having scored 37 tries to the Dragons' 14 so far in 2016.

The Dragons play the Raiders at 9.40 tonight.
