Re: Jack Wighton can put Canberra Raiders pack on front foot

Ole Jack had better set the world on fire wearing the number 1 as the expectations here are phenomenal. He's gunna have to change games, tear teams in half, get picked for Origin, achieve Billy Slater status, play pick up sticks with his butt cheeks and bring peace to the middle east. This is going...

Re: Matt McIlwrick released to Roosters

Agree that mccrone's problem is be overplays his hand and tries too hard which leads to a lot of very costly errors in key moments in the game. Why did we not offer mccrone to the roosters? :nooo

Re: Jack Wighton can put Canberra Raiders pack on front foot

Wighton is one of the very few, in fact I am not convinced he isn't the only one in our side who can change a game on his own. I think he his probably potentially one of the best defensive centres going around, but if we are going to win games, we need our match winners getting their hands on the b...

Re: Matt McIlwrick released to Roosters

Would people have preferred to have mcllwrick or mccrone as our bench utility? Mcllwrick would have been able to slot in at hooker and 2nd row which I'm
Starting to think would have been a better option than mccrone killing everything he touches.

If they are our 3 best players in round 1 we will win and win well. If they also perform that well together as early as round 1 we are in for an extremely good season ahead.

Am I the only one that thinks Shillo would be a big loss for this game? I can't quite understand the reasoning behind it. I know a torn pec is a serious injury but he's had two good trials now (remember he played 30 mins in a Mounties trial as well) so I'm shocked he wouldn't be ready. I know we ha...

At this stage rapana offers way more in attack than Hawkins and brenko while his defence is still pretty good.

Let's all just have a little breath and see what game day brings for the make-up of the teams. Maybe there's a twist in this tale which will make more sense when it happens/is revealed.

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2015

The only player that I would take out of our current 17 to debut another player would be tilse. I can't see Ricky doing that. I wouldn't drop any of the other forwards at this stage.

Its the best side we could expect for round one. Although I'd still have Rapana at fullback, Jack in the centres and Ed on the wing.
