If the Board has learnt from his last extension then they won't be making any decisions in 2019. Leading into this year his record is one finals series from 5. Should the team's form continue and we get our wish and make the finals it will still only be 2 from 6. Imo we should be deep into season 20...

Imagine paying Bryce Cartwright and Tyrone Peachey 600k each... Reminds me of Matt Elliot throwing huge dollars at spuds like Tyran Smith...

I think that's another issue with the judicial system in the NRL. The judiciary is on a completely different page to the match review committee. There's a better than even chance that if you go to the judiciary, the case is dismissed or the charge reduced. I recognise that the population is biased,...

Raiders got the 2 competition points so mission accomplished. So very impressive performances on both sides of the ball. The main talking point is the Cotric send off.

Has Wighton played himself into an Australian jersey? Jack would have to be ahead of Chambers and Mbye. Turbo has the right center spot. It will come down to Mal and if he can get Mitchell to focus on footy. Has Mitchell Pearce done enough to be considered for a Kangaroos halves position? If Luke K...

Thanks for the summary GE. We can only hope that those who went to Bali have not left their minds there.

Good to have Nic back in the side. I like Seb Kris but I think Nic is more likely to beat his man one on one.

TPJ wants to play for Tonga so his Rep career will be limited and not involve Origin. Fair enough - play where your heart tells you to. We all saw his potential in the lower grades with the Raiders. But converting that potential into being a dominant FG player is something a lot of players have prom...

Was at the game and was annoying to see NSW keep going to the right while wighton and abdo car was staring at open space in front of them on the left.

GE, Low run meters too. Maybe the humidity got to him. A 6 was generous. Not that Sticky would ever single out a player publicly but he was a long way short of expectations in a match we needed our rep players to stand up in.

RedRaider

Very happy with the extension of HorsPowers contract. He has that raw aggression in him which only needs to be better directed. A couple more off seasons will see him bulk up and mature and I think we will have a very good NRL forward on our hands. He is in his first season of FG so we have to expec...

GE for the Eels match EW missed 7 tackles and ran for 60 mtrs over the full 80 minutes. TGEs has him rated a 7 for that game. Is that one for each missed tackle? I am a fan of EW but I think a 6 is too high for him on that performance.

At last NSW win a tight game in the final minute. You bluety, back to back series wins. Well done to Freddy and his players. No coach whisper needed. I wonder if QLD will go back to Bennett next year. Nah, pick and stick.

I’d be surprised if there were a large number of players on a fixed share of the cap. It may have become more common to escalate in line with the cap increases when we didn’t know how the cap was escalating. I suspect the Raiders didn’t do that... otherwise we wouldn’t have been in cap trouble when...

Qld have had remarkable injury free outcomes for their main play makers. Of their Top 4 representatives: Cameron Smith played a record 42 matches, Thurston 37, Lockyer 36 and Langer 34.

In short out of the top 21 players for most SOO apearance we have 3 for NSW and 17 for QLD.

I love Qld maths. Where ever the 21st player came from I bet 'that's in Qld - Queenslands everywhere.'

I dunno, just seems to me like you guys are just plucking series out of your arses trying to make something stick. It's as ludicrous as Red suggesting us dropping one player is completely changing our lineup. :D It only takes one to bust the 'pick and stick' balloon. I now realise how invested you ...

I’d like to get peoples thoughts on what I reckon could resolve the matter of the Ratana incident.

There didn't seem to be much talk among the Raiders players. For those who were at the game, could you hear the players communicating or were they too knackered?

I think we are Premiership contenders as opposed to likely Premiership winners. The favourite is clearly the Storm. But anything can happen on Grand Final day. The trick is to be there on that day. It never helps when one of your best players all year has an off night. (Jacks hands). We also had Hod...

Sticky says he knows what's wrong and how to fix it. For the Eels first try the half back races up out of the line and leaves a gap. Just like our other half back has done. You'd almost think that two very different players are coached to do that. Nah, couldn't be....

Until now I didn't fully appreciate how scarred you were by watching Glen Buttriss. This is his fourth season away from the Raiders. Let it go mate. Or in the words of a great movie, 'That'll do Pig, that'll do.'

I sat with a bloke who identified himself as Jack's elder brother at the time of Jacks first game in FG. We were watching on TV at a Club. I can tell you that muscles run in the family.
