Re: 2024 NRL Round 2: Teams and Game Day

Average set metres
Parra 37
Panthers 55

Average ptb speed
Parra 3.44
Panthers 2.8

Panthers have been good at pinning the side down their own end
Eels have done well to score with limited opportunity

Yeah, looked fitter in round 1 than we have for the opening month of the last several years, usually Raoders start slow and build into the season peaking late.

TBH I don't recall Smithies doing anything particularly notable out there. Any line breaks, tries, tries assists, huge metres or post-contact metres, big hits, insane tackle counts, offloads, etc? He held his own, but so did the likes of Ryan Sutton when he was here. Not sure it was a point-worthy ...

Kris, Savage would have to be the quickest centre/wing combination Raiders have had in some time. Shame they won't get ball if we have the same game plan as last week

Re: 2024 salary cap analysis: What every club’s roster is really worth

I still find it ridiculous that salaries aren't transparent to the fans, yet it's perfectly acceptable to have several articles like this every year from journalists who speak to player managers about each player's salary.

Re: 2024 Rd 2 v Tigers: Teams and Previews

The main thing tigers have going for them this match is that we're still in the receptionist rounds, there were a lot of upsets last week. Would back raiders (or pretty much any side except maybe titans) to put them away

Re: 2024 Round 1 v Knights: Game Day

Hosking’s dream debut When Zac Hosking signed with the Raiders, it looked unlikely he’d break into the starting 17. But after a calf injury to captain Elliott Whitehead, Hosking was thrust into the run on side and delivered on club debut. The Raiders have previously been in the market for an edge f...

Re: 2024 Rd 2 v Tigers: Teams and Previews

Asomua is locked in for top 30 in 2025, 2026.
In 2024 he's on a development contract, so I don't know how much that'd weigh in for him to hold down a starting position for an extended period of time this year.

Re: 2024 Rd 2 v Tigers: Teams and Previews

The way I see it
Early in the season at least Hopoate is first in player in to cover for left centre/left wing if they are out.

Schiller is first choice for right centre and I'd guess also right wing until Asomua is considered ready.

90% completion rate is decent for a first hit out. The guys stuck to a plan, did the tough stuff and worked as a unit.

Re: 2024 Rd 2 v Tigers: Teams and Previews

The tactic of Fogarty being the half with all of the ball worked for game 1, but continuing that tactic means teams can easily put a lot of pressure every 5th tackle when they know who is going to get the ball. I think Strange will need to get ball moving forward, particularly with Kris coming back ...
