The Greenhouse

It should be. And the reaction of rugby league fans is only further proof. A massively male fanbase doesn't want to talk about power imbalances, or the creepiness of a grown man going after a schoolgirl (oh, what will they watch for porn then!), or the inherent wrongness of deliberately seeking out ...

raiderskater

NO.

EDIT

We are talking about EDIT STILL IN SCHOOL (and don't give me that **** about "oh he met her outside the school" THAT'S NOT THE ****ING POINT). He fails every part of the "no ****" policy. It would be a PR disaster and one we should avoid at all costs.

ILess sympathy for touchies getting it wrong as their role hasn't changed much and if anything they should be stepping up to help out the guy in the middle more. A lot of the touchies are actually former on-field refs. Perenara was one of the touchies at our Dragons game for example. Quite a few of...

Ricky said straight after the game that Tommy Starling was our backup 9. What little we have seen of him, he is a diminutive, very fit, jack rabbit type 9 - a poorest mans Cook, if you will. Given we are still short on middles, I think Havili will have to play a bit of 9 and a bit of middle going f...

I would love to give it a go and see just how hard it is to not make howlers... I do think it’d be a lot harder than the we, the fans, and the commentators think. I am as far away from being a “refs faulter” as possible, and I would usually agree - but the howler on Saturday night was one of those ...

raiderskater

The bunker should stay, but there needs to be a complete cleanout of bunker officials, refs, and the ref boss. The boys' club has gone beyond a joke.

raiderskater

We're going to be close to having to bring Scott back no matter what kind of form he's in, we're running short of backs. Not sure throwing Harley Smith-Shields to the wolves of the Roosters is a good idea.

raiderskater

Oh god, it just gets worse and worse.

raiderskater

With our luck right now, I'd wager poor Bailey will be out for a while.

On NRL.com - ‘Graham Annesley believes Raiders winger Bailey Simonsson was wrongly sin-binned’.

I feel so much better now Graham, as does the Canberra club. Thank you.

****!!!

Like, no ****ing duh.

raiderskater

We absolutely cannot catch a break. How many season-ending injuries have we had in the last couple of weeks? Horse, Sia, Guler, now Hodgo, and Bateman still weeks away. It's insane.

raiderskater

I liked him so far! Lots of energy, good speed, good runs. Very promising, can't wait to see more of him!

raiderskater

Oh, that shot clock on the dropout is awful. That should be a penalty to us and sin bin as a professional foul.

Good call from the Fox commentators that it's a professional foul.

raiderskater

So I'm finally watching the replay.

God, everything went wrong with twelve and a half minutes to go to halftime. Hodgson's knee collapses and the bunker EDIT. When even that one-eyed flog Brandy howls that it's a terrible wrong call, you know it is wrong!

Our season was over when we traded bj for Scott

Oh yeah, that same BJ who's currently serving a four week suspension?

Sod off, troll.

raiderskater

I was hoping before the game for a gritty 6 point loss; I considered the odds of a win to be a miracle. Haven't watched yet; long trip home and family dinner. But **** me, Hodgo with an ACL and Bailey with a shoulder...we cannot ****ing win this year. Everytime we try and do something we get struck ...

raiderskater

I presume he’ll be used as a lock for 15-20 mins as it’s a tough ask for Hudson Young to play 80 and alternate between the edge and middle. Hudson played 80 last week, though I don't know if that was always the plan or if it just got that way due to the problems. I hope Kai has a good debut! It's a...

C'mon Pete. Tell 2020 it can **** right off. You're gonna be there the day we raise the premiership trophy...and for the weeks of celebration afterwards!

I would go after Corey Harawira-Naera. Far as Im aware all he did was break team protocol by bringing a female into camp. The PR disaster wouldn't be worth it. And he didn't just bring a woman (female, gross) back to the hotel. She was 18, still in high school, and the Bulldogs had just done a scho...

I'd be more than happy to go crowdless for another couple of rounds and make sure it's under control. How are we to know that those three selfish **** didn't give it to a Raiders fan at the market or at the mall, who might then all unknowing spread it in the crowd?

I just hope there is not an overreaction from Government and crowds are stopped. It is devastating news, but we need to remember that it is 3 cases and there are many measures in place to ensure social distancing at the ground. Three cases who went to the busiest fresh food market in Canberra and t...

I was laughing at Fox League's facebook page for reporting it as a suspected "broken face" on Friday night. Turns out they were right, he literally broke his face. Poor Sia!

raiderskater

I sort of liked him off the bench last night. Of course, difficult to measure his full impact in a game where we were ruined by injury. But he did seem to have more of an impact. I think we should try him in the 14 for a while, maybe he picks up some confidence.

raiderskater

I found myself thinking a lot in the last couple of weeks about some of the truly awful games we played last year too. Remember that disaster in Darwin against the Eels? I feel like we have the calibre of team that will actually rise to the difficulty of playing Storm-Roosters-Souths in the next few...

raiderskater

Eh, Jack will have his Jack moments. He's always good for one stuff-up per game. We know this, but it's fairly predictable and he makes up for it. He did look very good tonight, poked his nose through the line a few times.

raiderskater

I hope Simon has been granted a special exemption for his drum! The terms and conditions say no musical instruments!

raiderskater

I mean, 6pm Friday night is also a crappy time.

Going to ring them tomorrow morning and check about umbrellas, though. The forecast has been deteriorating.

Edrick was a lisfranc if i remember correctly and took for ever yep mentioned it earlier in the thread I don't think he ever really got over it Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk Sorry didn't read the whole thread lol I think eddy is going ok now but took a long time to get the speed and agility ...

Great article in today’s DT (behind paywall) by Paul Kent that clears up everything Our upgraded offer was $750k but Moses was of the view they could get $950k. With only the Dragons and Dogs willing to get near that they came crawling back and were happy to take the $750k. We then pulled the offer...

I think our absolute best option is CHN based on what he would cost compared to his ability. He is a great hole runner with pace for his size.

It wouldn't be worth the PR disaster or the schools ringing up the Raiders and saying they'd rather the team didn't come to the school now.

raiderskater

I think if Raps wasn't injured Scott wouldn't have been in the squad at all. I also think unless there's an injury, he'll be riding the pine for a good 75 mins to let it sink in. This is how I'm reading it. That if Raps was fit, Oldie would be the 14 with Bailey into the side. Scott rides the pine ...

raiderskater

I am very, very pissed.

Hope the Raiders chase him or his manager or his new club for the transfer fee. We did everything for him, we paid the fee, EDIT, made him as welcome and comfortable as we could, and this is how he repays us.

**** I'm steamed.
