Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2023

I've done my research on this, and it looks like "warm body" actually originated on the forum as a Botman term back in 2021. He has by far and away used it the most, and somewhere along the line Matt has picked it up and run with it. So my original assumption that Matt started it and Bot ...

Re: 2023 Rd 13 v Rabbitohs: Teams and Previews *Teams p1*

Are there many examples of outside backs successfully transitioning to the forwards? Luke Lewis had a pretty good career moving to the back row. I’m not sure Cotric has it in him. He seems a bit disinterested from what I’ve seen of him when fit this year. Pretty strong argument that he will find it...

Reading between the lines, you all want Ricky gone? My life’s become much less stressful when I stopped worrying about things I can’t control.

Ricky saw their bench and has banned anything outside middle third. I'm pumped for a showcase of crash plays of all varieties on their line.

Re: Canberra Raiders miss out on David Fifita, re-signs with Titans

Titans have no chance of winning a premiership. Fifita's decision to stay at the Titans shows he is more interested in the lifestyle than winning. He would have been a drain on this club had we signed him. I think we dodged a bullet I’m not convinced about that The arrogance of thinking that the ra...

Meanwhile, this Melbourne team should be ripe for the picking. If we can't beat them now, then we deserve to be middle of the table. Their key strength is the 9-7-6 combo. It's them vs our defence. We have them covered in the forwards; NAS and maybe K Bromwich and Smith are their keys in the pack. ...

We have a bit of depth now in the backs - Hoppa, Schiller and Cotric fighting it out for one wing spot. Kris, Timoko and HSS (next year) in the centres. Some observers think Morkos is good as well. Savage looking more and more comfortable at FB. We should never have played Semi Valemi for 8 weeks a...

Re: 2022 Rd 22 V Dragons: Game Day

I don't think we win more easily with tapine. We bashed them. Way more metres. It was the goal line defence and goal line attack that made it a close game. There is no player that takes control like Hunt does for them.

I could honestly make a stronger argument as to why we’ll lose every game from here. We’ve only beaten Penrith in 3 of our last 11 games. We’ve lost the last 3 games. Last time we beat them was our grand final year when we had big Jonneh, and decent defense. We’ve only beaten the Knights in 4 of ou...
