Re: 2024 Round 7 v Broncos: Teams and Previews *Teams p1
Surely Broncos won't run with both Smoothy and Sailor on the interchange against our forward pack... Te Kura or Taupau to push into the final 17 on game day possibly? Carrigan played 80 min last week and the 4 props shared time. Expect the similar on Saturday. Smoothy got a fair bit of time subbing...

Re: Parramatta Eels still hoping to hold onto Raiders target Ethan Sanders
The drums have been beating long and loud on this one. Most league journos have talked lime it's been a done deal for 6 months. Will be stunned if it's not officially announced this week.
I'm still not sure how it could have all happened since we're not allowed to negotiate anything till now.

Last week were were awesome spreading the ball and creating space for our outside backs. This week we continually turned it back inside and didn't get any decent ball to our wingers. We all know HSS can get lost in defense at centre. Can't remember really testing him at any stage.

Re: 2024 Round 6 v Titans: Game Day
Give plenty of credit to Titans defense. Been under the pump and they keep putting in. Let's see if they can sustain it.
If Raiders keep playing like we did in 1st half I think we're fine. It's been very disciplined . Have to maintain the positive attitude and not slack off.
