It's looking very much that Jack was a lot of the reason for the inconsistent nonsense that has been dished up by the 2023 Raiders.

Re: 2023 Rd 23 v Tigers: Game Day

Another thing, Sharks played a lot better than us beating Rabbits, and deserve to be 5th over us. But they aren’t so.. That shows we really haven't progressed, even with all the taking it away from home, especially at home only to win by 4 pts with tigers coming home the better, hotels and the like...

So same **** team that got thumped? Unbelievable. Who cares?

Exactly how I feel. Would prefer the side to play a bit...

Feeling as good as you can as a raiders fan, there is always a sense of impending doom but i think we'll win I feel there's some games where you just know we can't win.

We were diabolical against Newcastle, but our first half vs Penrith was not bad I have a sneaky suspicion that our defense fell apart after Woolford left the field.
