Max Plath is a really good young player
That try saver on Semi Valemai was top shelf
He is what I had hoped Smithies would be

Botman

It’s going to be pretty bloody important that Strange, Sanders and Chev are learning on the job with a strong pack Tapine may not be a core part of the future raiders team that we’re hoping can win us a comp (he also might be! He’s not so old that there is certainty around that) but he’s going to be...

Botman

I'm watching the second half now because I went out last night. Good performance tbh But tapine breaking from the scrum the literal second he was able to and putting pressure on the passer was such a huge play at the end And a good no call by the official who I was certain was about to bail them ou...

2006 vibes, strong they are. Bit of a Michael Hodgson sort of Saturday, you reckon ? :lol: Just the getting belted a couple of times sandwiched between 1 and 2 point wins. And much like 2006, we’ve got a couple of young starlets to cling our hopes to I’m gonna look up Troy Thompson highlights to ge...

Botman

there is always an adjustment period Not a lot of blokes hit FG and immediately know how to handle the step up in speed and physicality The good ones figure it out pretty quickly. Mooney has now played about 9 fg games and probably has two full games of minutes under his belt. He’s figuring out how ...

actually, here is Annisley - regarding the rule change. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfY8RJY-ZiU Interesting. That's exactly what happened with Hudson then. Could hear Atkins call surrender The new rule stinks, but that is now the rule. Unpopular take I think Annesley is right That Mexican stand...

I see one option LH- Sanders RH- Strange 30+ year old good and loveable half or move to hooker, or retire... or honestly with all due respect, who cares. The club can not be building around a 31-32 year old half who has never been a top 10 half in the league. And will never be. Fog is here and he's ...

Botman

Actually well highlighted, Brooks was a bit off tonight. He’s been very up and down this season. He’s a good player when his team is on the front foot, but seems to struggle when his team is under the pump. He started the year HOT man, like really good But as the season has gone on, he's kind of re...

Botman

Im with Gangy... he worked hard and that goes a long way... and a nice job in scoring the game winner, but that's a gimmie off the back of someone elses good kick Otherwise he was OK! not complaints really and a step up from his form so far this year, but nothing to write home about at all. Very ear...

Botman

Sanders is going to be ready much earlier than people think. He can tackle and he can kick.
He'll be pushing for FG in 2025 and im sure that is part of the pitch to get him here.

If the 2026 halves arnt Sanders and Strange something has gone wrong in the plan

Botman

Gonna cop some grief for saying this but.... It appears to me as Papas heart just isnt in it anymore.... I mean whens the last time he has a real barnstorming game? these days hes lucky to make 100 metres and rarely bends the line... last week he had 5 errors too. its just sad to see cause i love a...

Botman

interesting alternate reality... if EW wins the challenge down 22-24, we probably kick for goal I said in a group chat at the time and almost everyone in it agreed... losing the challenge and being forced to play for the win was a blessing in disguise and our best chance to snatch a very unlikely wi...

Guler had an unhappy night in what has been an unhappy year for him He had a good opportunity and didn’t take it I’m a fan but he’s falling well down the pecking order with this sort of play In saying that…can you imagine the absolute scenes at Guler Kebabs and Pizzeria tonight when the Milk bus co...

Botman

3- Whitehead: has to be imo. Bloke made 4-5 game changing plays whilst spending all game looking like he needed to be in palliative care 2- Cotric: superb all game, and once again showed if nothing else he’s still one of the very best defensive wingers in the game 1- Strange: tried all game, always ...

He just needs time to adjust to nrl game speed
He’ll only get better. Gotta keep him in the team and let him keep growing

Seibold is going to be awake at 3:47am staring at the clock, grinding his teeth and shaking his head with fury trying to figure out how he lost that game

The raiders heading back down the Hume in ski masks and 2 competition points

I’m still laughing haha

Botman

I reckon you blokes are kidding yourselves re: refereeing I don’t understand why some hip drops are a sin bin and others that appear the same are not But we’ve been **** pests in the ruck all game. Pushing it to the very limits trying to slop this game up and keep it tight We’ve earned most the pen...

Botman

Anthony Seibold wont get a wink of **** sleep tonight
hahah... goodness me, this football team have won some stupid **** games in it's time... that's up there

Up the **** milk.

Botman

Botman

lol. Of course it’s him

Botman

Great finish from Cotric there
Tougher than it looked

Botman

Hahaha come on!

Botman

Ooooof
Savage wasn’t far off housing that I think

Though I guess they have some fliers who might have tracked him down

Botman

Boy that’s really unlucky

Botman

This is such a funny EW game
18-24… one score game?!?

Botman

Strange needs to get more height on some of his kicks

Botman

Mooney is a very strong carry
Really happy to see him in the 17 and getting time

Botman

Gee Hoppa is slow and poor in defence
No shape or complexity required
Fast athletic talented man beats man who possesses none of those traits

Botman

Good kick pressure from strange
Need more of that sort of hustle

Danny Levi, 100 + FG games, he just cracks me up. Runs from dummy half on the last, then in desperation passes it back. Didn't occur to him to pass it to Weekes or Strange in the first instance. At least he isn’t getting wrecked defensively this week All you can ask of him is that. He’s being playe...
