Schneider is a better defender
I’ll give him that and stylistically they are similar players in that there is little creative ball playing on offer
But I think Fog is a significantly better player right now. He’s also much older and has much more experience.

Re: 2024 NRL Round 4: Teams and Game Day
I think the roosters late surge was more down to the panthers putting the cue in the rack
It got in any real danger, they'd have ramped it back up and won.

Re: Ex Raiders... where are they now?
He did what was asked of him. His passing and processing was faster so that's a good sign, but for the most part he was what he was here... still needing an early pass. The talent around him is very good and he kicked well and defended well which is really all the panthers need and want in a back up...

Re: 2024 NRL Round 4: Teams and Game Day
Yeah, I never really rated him as a NRL level half and I don’t think we’ll ever miss him, but he seems like a nice guy and I wish him well and I’m glad to see him doing a job for a red hot Panthers team as a back up to Cleary He’s just a good back up half Because he kicks well and tackles well You ...

Re: 2024 NRL Round 4: Teams and Game Day
He’s definitely improved in his game speed but he’s mostly doing exactly as he did for us
Kick well, defend well and pass early.
They’ll survive with the talent they have with him at half

Re: 2024 NRL Round 4: Teams and Game Day
Disagree
It’s JWH’s responsibility not to impede a defender. Edwards doesn’t change his line at all, he’s running to the contest and must not be impeded
I’m perfectly fine with those being penalties

I may be wrong but I think Ricky will bring back Hoppa when his burns heal but will drop him for Schiller/Chevy/Asomua later in the season. And next year when Rapa’s spot frees up, it’ll be one of those other guys taking it. Ricky is slow. So very slow. But I think he’ll get there on this one. 100%...

On the Fifita thing itself, i dont think a club like ours can actually turn down recruiting a blue chip player like him if it's actually possible. With EW surely departing at seasons end we have a need at edge, albeit not as significant need given how well Hosking is going I am mindful that Hosking ...

There is absolutely no question that when fit Hoppa is coming back in when he's fit.
And we'll be weakening our team to do it.

I doubt there's that much cash to splash, Strange, Timoko and Savage need deals by November. Need to sign Sanders too.

Re: Canberra Raiders miss out on David Fifita... for a second time
Marshall King is not a bad shout. He's a good but not great hooker, would be a good improvement for us and his age puts him on a time line that suits as a hold over for our young talent to have time to come through
Would only be interested if we could get him early for 2025.

Re: Parramatta Eels still hoping to hold onto Raiders target Ethan Sanders
Talagi is a highly rated talent
Thought he looked good at centre, interested to see how he goes.
I never thought they’d consider Sanders for this spot but it would have worried me a bit if he was picked
