Re: 2023 Canberra Raiders NSW Cup

It's interesting, the defence/youth thing. Fullback is very hard to defend from. You're having to tackle guys one on one at full speed, with a lot of space for them to dodge you Jahrome Bula at 18 is already a great tackler at the back. Dugan was great as soon as he debuted (at 18 too?). Some may s...

of course souths say they think knight will star in their pack because they spent all their $$ in the backs and have a very weak list of front rowers, he was ok for souths last year as he was for us, i hardly think he got much better at souths, just more oppertunity and minutes.
