Morning all! If any of you blokes are heading to the game, make sure you pop into the Steelers club across the road for a beer and/or feed.

Re: Canberra Raiders express interest in Kiwi superstar Shaun Johnson
Guys it’s the same old story, article comes out. Bigger club comes in and signs the player. We are not getting him. You can have Rapana, Tapine and McFadden but that won’t mean a thing when it all comes to money. I’m not a party pooper, I’m just over it. I would honestly like us to do something stu...

Re: Josh Papalii re-signs with Canberra Raiders on four year deal
Great news. But is anyone wondering for what cost? We have a decorated history of poor cap management (how does Don still have his job) 😂 Half our problem is spending big money on non key positions. Hope a war chest is being prepared to throw at free agent marquee halves to replace Austin and Sezer ...

Re: Time for a different approach to recruiting?
My 2 cents, absolutely need a different approach to recruiting. We have not been active, we have never been. We have outdated management from the top. We started by paying overs to developing juniors who'd get poached by clubs when they were first grade ready. Then the fantastic recruiting in 15, 16...

2/10 for me also. Top 4 on paper at worst, hardly affected by injury, didn't learn from mistakes all year long, finish 10th.

Re: Going backwards
Dave Taylor was nowhere near the Raiders best player in 2017, he only played a handful of games. There's a pretty strong risk that he wouldn't play more games next season if his contract was extended... and that's why the club isn't going to pay overs. They can't afford to anyway due to the cap... ...

Re: Going backwards
Good post OP. Look at the Roosters for example, top 4, in with a chance this year and oh, adding Tedesco next year. A lot, if not almost all clubs are tinkering, wheeling and dealing, trying to get on Storm's level. Our club reeks of complacency from the top down. Talk around it all you want but tha...

Dragons winning well was not good. Raiders finals probability in my model fell around 1.5% from 11.2 to 9.7%. The chance of making finals with Raiders winning 3/4 took a beating. Moreso from me finding a bug in my code [emoji13], about a 6% chance of making it if the Raiders drop a game. Still sitt...

If we are not at least making inquiries into a young NSW/Australian level forward who might be motivated by winning and winning now, we are kidding ourselves at the highest heights of ignorance.
