Re: Jordan Rapana re-signs until end 2017

I still think Rapana is wasted on the wing, he should be in the centres and develop his game in that position with waqa on the wing. Waqa is a great finisher and has played most of his career on the wing for that reason, he is not really a center. Rapana would be far more useful with his fend and st...

Re: 2015 NRL Round 9 *Spoilers*

Think Broncos will be still to strong today for Panthers at home even with Soward back, not having seggie is a big blow for them still and Soward not really match fit as well.

Re: Canberra Raiders set to sign BJ Leilua

Hawkins will be a way more complete player then BJ in a couple years, if he is given more first grade.If raiders sign BJ they will lose Hawkins within 2 years to another club.

One thread you say bring back Vidot and then no to BJ
Vidot mid season depth signing on minimal coin, I hardly doubt BJ will be on minimal coin at least 400k-500k.

Re: Canberra Raiders set to sign BJ Leilua

Why not just play rapana in the centers save money, he is very similar type of player. That way Hawkins can develop on wing rather then paying overs on a guy that has one good game every 10. Lets not forget last year most of you where saying Hawkins was best thing since sliced bread need to secure h...

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2015

Bit of a depth mid season signing but what about bringing vidot back on minimal coin, Broncos want to ship him off.

I know he has a few errors in him but he carries the ball back real strong and is probably better option then e lee atm if he was at raiders.

Bit of a bonus as well I think simona can play fullback, I am pretty sure he played a couple games last year for tigers.

Saying that I would rather Roberts but, he is actually a natural fb and he would be just amazing in attack with his game at the back.

Really raiders should monster manly like I said before down the middle with the injuries that manly has they are so soft down the middle, which should limit what Foran and dce can do.

If raiders lose this it will be really worrying for Ricky.
