This is the issue with the site... this map view is aligned so north is at the top... west at the left. You would want your western sideline running from the top to bottom of the map. Yes, but you'll hard-pressed to find too many stadiums that are perfect North-South - you have to make concessions ...

Sterlk

To be fair, the zoom on Google maps isn't the most accurate thing in the world. I just tried to do it again and somehow the stadium is like 20% bigger, which would indeed require Parkes Way to be moved. It's not as though that's as big a deal as everybody is making out, though - you wouldn't even ne...

Why does the Civic site need to be East-West? Just do this: https://i.snipboard.io/ALkt7X.jpg That's Bankwest stadium at the same zoom level. Doesn't even look like Parkes Way needs to be moved. All that extra space closer to the roundabout could be the precinct, and the open-air CIT carpark on the ...

As dangerous as BJ can be, he's got a lot of mistakes and on-field discipline issues that come with him. IMO this is something we need to fix, I don't realistically know how likely it is that we can do that, if we can't then the other option is to move him on. Whatever else he did in the GF, I think...

Sterlk

I don't want to read too much about the loss, I won't be clicking on any related news articles. I think a Sydney paper captioning a picture of a referee with "Hands up if you ruined the grand final" just about says it all - saw that on TV after the game. I thought going in that the Roosters were goi...

I'm up in the nosebleed section. Thought it was better than behind the posts on the fence, in any case. Thought I'd share this, since the crappy picture on the Ticketek website gives you no clue where all of the different categories are: https://www.austadiums.com/stadiums/seatingmaps/anz-stadium-NR...

You bloody beauty! Off the GF next weekend!

I do believe I have a bottle of Raiders Choc Mint that I shall drink right now.

I love Cranky, I'd vote for him for anything.

I really wish they had seats held in reserve for clubs, ones that aren't utter crap - on the fence behind the goalposts is awful. Is a little elevation on a corner too much to ask for? Hell, reserve some gold and platinum. Die-hard club fans are getting shunted behind the posts, and the people there...

Sterlk

Has anybody worked out who we can possibly play, and who we'll likely play, a fortnight from now?

Are Melbourne now on the other side of the draw? Roosters/Melbourne prelim at the SCG?

Sterlk

People are going to blow up about that touch judge and the hand not hitting the line - but it's not as though they were definitely going to score from that. The amount of times the Raiders have been dudded over the years by a bad call, you can't say they weren't owed one. Really, Melbourne threw it ...

Sterlk

WoooooO!!!!!!!!

Preliminary final in Canberra!

Sterlk

... and just like that, the lead evaporates. Have to come from behind now.

Sterlk

Well you can tell its finals football, close stuff. A little disappointing we don't have more points on the board after dominating the half, I get the feeling momentum is going to swing around. Still, I'd rather be in our position than theirs, leading at the break going into the second half is a str...

Thoroughly recommend "Control", Remedy's new game. I'm not too far into it, but its a blast. Picture yourself as an adult Eleven (from Stranger Things), in a government building running through a story that's somewhere in between The X-Files and Warehouse 13. Worth mentioning that the graphics are a...

Everybody here seems to be taking this article as gospel, and that it's a foregone conclusion that he's gone.

I'm still holding out hope that he'll stick around, but now I won't be surprised if he doesn't.

Sterlk

Whelp, we're off to Melbourne with zero momentum.

Hope resting half the team was worth it.

Sterlk

Some horrendous last tackle options all game, but definitely quite a show at the end there - a five field goal game.

Locked up top 4, regardless of what happens week 1, we've got a home final in week 2 or 3.

Sterlk

Just got the Raiders post-match coverage email for the Sharks game.

Jumped the gun a bit.

Have now been through the thread. Some really good stuff - well done.

How on earth did you get this photo? Were you hanging out the side of a helicopter with a harness?

Sterlk

That's one of the great all-time Raiders wins... 18-0 down against Melbourne, I thought it was done at that point.

This is the first time anybody has ever clawed back a Melbourne lead of 18 points or more. It's nice to be on the positive side of the record books for once.

Sterlk

That game can best be summarised as follows:

Jack Wighton cops a piledriver, referee calls a Roosters scrum.

Sterlk

Wow. This thread has been here for 8 years and I've never bothered opening it up and taking a look until now. I'm genuinely quite impressed, will take some time and go through the rest of it at some point soon. Not exactly photos, but I've got a bunch of massive canvas prints from the dude in the li...

For anybody that hasn't seen this - behold!

I just rewatched it and it just about killed me - literal tears of laughter.

Sterlk

Can't read the damn article! I don't subscribe to the Canberra Times....it doesn't sufficiently reflect my hard right life view back to me. Anybody with a modicum of technical nous can get at the article's content for free, and perfectly legitimately without any dodgy shenanigans. I'll PM you some ...

Sterlk

Not sure that logic holds. I feel like there's been a fair few games where all the legends have rocked up to Canberra Stadium, formed a guard of honour at the tunnel and been in the dressing rooms etc., and we end up getting walloped on the scoreboard.

Sterlk

Congrats to them. There's a CT article on this that has a photo of Jason Croker at the event. It's been years since I've seen him and time marches on - pictured here playing the part of a boardroom executive: https://nnimgt-a.akamaihd.net/transform/v1/crop/frm/fdcx/doc76ac8cjdkgwlowe6o5p.jpg/r0_218_...

Way to spoil it.

I am 95% certain that I just discovered I live in the same building as Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad. There was a dude that looks an awful lot like him wearing Raiders shorts just now. The people you see during a fire evacuation. I would have verified but he appeared to be with his partner and kids explor...

The majority of what everybody seems to watch here is reality TV and Netflix originals. I have a massive backlog, but have put a minor dent in it today. Got through some Ray Donovan, Veep, Archer, Bob's Burgers, Family Guy and Supernatural. Second last season of Supernatural, thank god; outstaying i...

I'm talking about stuff like this: (I know, news.com.au, but still...) A government insider has blamed dodgy tradesmen and declining standards for buildings “falling down around (people’s) ears” in NSW. The comments come after residents were kicked out of their homes when cracks were discovered in t...

How about those dodgy apartment blocks in NSW, eh? A lot of red tape is there for a reason. It's clearly not working I believe Sterlk is objecting to the absence of red tape. Yeah. Not that I'm an expert on NSW-specific stuff, but from what I saw governments in NSW have been doing the old "hey look...
