People are certainly giving each other a lot more line breaks (re: Smithies on the weekend) due to people running good lines as part of the team structure this season, that's for sure. Certainly beats everyone standing around flat-footed and the playmakers being expected to "ball play" ou...

I heard Jock Madden was not being renews at Brisbane. That’s the kind of backup I can actually see us getting.

Two points - in a year where Dylan Brown has just locked in a decade at over a mill, there is a reason we have not taken up an option on much less than that, and the only competing offer from any club is $500k. And..should Fog go I’m starting to think that the current ‘system’ of the 7 leading us ar...

Timoko needs some early ball. Right now he's only getting hit ups. He's a dangerous ball runner and we need to take advantage of that. His defense was a concern tonight. While that's on him I don't think he was helped by our structure. We had a compressed defense and weren't sliding like we have fi...

It’s been a concerning trend for years now that the difference between our best and worst is too large. We seem to base so much of what we do on effort and enthusiasm and ‘bleeding green’ that it kills me, because playing at 110% effort is unsustainable. The age old adage that a team rises to the le...

To be honest the pace of service stepped up massively as soon as Pattie came on last night - one of his early passes wide to papa was a thing of beauty. Starling is playing some of his best footy but it’s all based of scooting from dummy half and creating some chaos. The guy has some serious deficie...

Very happy with what I saw in round 1, and I really hope that we consistently play this brand of football as I think it suits us well. My caution is that the last few years have all had common traits - glimpses of change in early rounds that disappear at the first sign of trouble, like a fog injury ...

Coastalraider

My concern based on history is that while we may see some green shoots, I 100% agree that early rounds should be played somewhat conservatively. It’s what happens after that which concerns me - I saw green shoots the last 2 years with aggressive defence, second phase play etc on occasions, but tradi...

Raiders sidestep agent in Fogarty talks Canberra Raiders coach Ricky Stuart and half Jamal Fogarty are set to sideline Fogarty's agent Tas Bartlett, in talks over the club and player options in Fogarty's contract for 2026. “Jamal came to me and said ‘let’s just do this ourselves’,” Stuart said. “Ty...

We, as a Canberra Raiders community, need to stop reacting to Corey Parker GE should stop posting it and we should stop listening to it and giving it any air to breathe He is a worthless contributor to RL discourse. We dont have to listen to him and get upset every time he says something dumb. At s...

I think it’s fairly reasonable to say some of Hacks best football has actually been wearing a blues jersey and playing centre. The fact he was playing 6 for us at the time in clubland doesn’t change the fact he was near the best in ground at times in the hardest matches in football. Seeing him at th...

I hate it when mum and dad fight.

Could be in Flegg.

Ah of course, that squad hasn’t been named I don’t think.

I’m not sure how many times I’m going to have to repeat myself on this one (but I suspect many, many times), but it’s virtually impossible to be a good “ball player” at this level without the players both inside and outside of you running good lines and creating opportunities People don’t just ball...

How’s everyone going? Gerg, recovered yet? Doc, how’s the return to fitness? Boney, how’s cricket season treating you and how’s Boney Jnr’s progress?

Like a Ben Hunt or Damien Cook style player?

If only guys like that came on the market every now and then we could use our warchest.

Considering the game gets its money from broadcasters, and the broadcasters get their money from advertising, and advertisers will pay more money for more eyeballs, and Sydney teams playing Sydney teams and QLD teams playing QLD teams brings more eyeballs, are we really demanding the broadcasters s...

I'm assuming you meant ... still not allowed to run? I'm not running much. Struggled with upper right leg issues, thigh and hammy, for a year now so I am resting until at least the new year.

Had my first race since utmb yesterday - 21k shake out to see how the body reacted before committing to a 100k at Kosci in a couple of weeks.

Went down on a rock 3k in and fractured my fibula - had to hike 2k on it to get out to help.

Season over.

Coastalraider

That’s a huge step mate, congratulations!

Coastalraider

Yeah that does sound a bit silly. Nit sure what’s gone on there. One thing I’m slowly getting my head around as the sport grows in that every region has done things differently up until now, and now that things are being centralised more and people are traveling for races more that more differences ...

This sounds amazing! A real struggle which is half the fun. Love it!

If i had to guess how it plays out Fog has a decent history of missing games, Strange plays a physical style, so injury isnt beyond him either i reckon they'll stick with Strange and Fog and trust that Sanders will get his chances when injury and suspension pop up during the year and pending how St...

Great for the boys to get this experience, but looking at the total squad it does seem like the nrl sent out an all staff email asking who wasn’t in Bali yet.

Coastalraider

Core fans keep going to the pile that is the current stadium, so spending money on that experience is revenue neutral in the short term.

Expanding corporate opportunities drives additional revenue in the short term.

A new stadium fixes both in the long term.

I’d happily pay Levi full freight to play NSW Cup for the whole year if that helps Start the gofundme page please. No, I meant I’d pay for it myself. If he plays NSW Cup for the whole of next season and doesn’t sniff a minute of first grade, then I’ll happily fork out 425 odd k for your boy. And if...

Coastalraider

I reckon I know the answer - but given if we agree to a transfer in the nrl we can cover a component of the players salary (ie the hypotheticals with Horse), can we legally cover Levi’s wage (or portion of) to play super league? We have the cap space, I have zero idea where our cap is going next year.

Coastalraider

Sam Burgess says he is under contract so he is not going anywhere. Is this the same Sam Bradford who left his Bradford Bulls contract a year early to join Souths and then left his Bath Rugby Union contract to return to Souths? He also said if nrl teams want super league players they need to make it...

Thanks for sharing coastal, was a good listen. Roughly what does the week in chamonix cost? I'm tempted by this race but probably more tempted by the location. I think I'd prefer to fastpack it over 5 or 6 days. Some of the tour groups I looked at were 3500 euro and that's a little too much for my ...
