Re: Parramatta Eels still hoping to hold onto Raiders target Ethan Sanders

Sanders fits in reggies for as long ad he takes to overtake fog. The best thing we can do is get him in and give him time to mature his game. It probably benefits him to stay for the whole year at the eels to get a wider experience before joining us next year

Re: Parramatta Eels still hoping to hold onto Raiders target Ethan Sanders

I go on Facebook and see people say… I saw Sanders in the trial, there’s better options in the club at halfback now etc etc. This drives me to distraction! People watch ONE game and make their mind up about a junior player. At least take the time to watch more than ONE game before pontificating. I ...

Re: Toughest preseason ever 2024

The story headline in The Canberra Times “Did the Raiders just hint who their top-choice No.6 is?” is suggesting that Kaeo Weekes might be the front runner for five eighth. What Jamal Fogarty actually said was that today was the first time that he and Weekes were in the halves in an opposed session...

Re: Canberra Raiders star Jamal Fogarty set to test open market

I can not stress enough that if the primary option for 2024 is Strange or even if they think he’ll be the primary option mid season, from MINUTE 1 of pre season Fog needs to move to the right to allow an easy transition. If the answer is or will eventually be Strange, he’s got to have the right hal...

Mooney well above all others. Asomua is rapanas replacement in waiting. Puru comes to life in the back end of halves. Has a bit of work to do in the earlier exchanges. I dont think chevy is ready.

Re: Coaching issues

Id just be really happy if rick had someone else in charge of interchanges. Someone less emotionally invested who is able to use it strategically and with clear purpose. Rick rides the game too hard to make clear overview decisions.
