At 21 Papa was eating too many big macs and not able to do big minutes. He certainly wasn't showing the potential he has reached Correct me if I'm wrong ( I know you all will) Taps at 21 was struggling to fit in to the team in Newcastle and even find his groove in the NRL I think the best thing tha...

I think Mooney needs to be starting to get the best out of him until he is more comfortable with his position in the side. I also think this would be best for the team.

No Rapana this week rep?

Finchy

Are there concerns he’s the next Luke PAGE? Dominant at cup level but can’t cut it in firsts?

The Dogs desperately need a front rower, but if they’d signed him I don’t reckon Ricky would play him in firsts.

Finchy

Actually that’s exactly what he said - “We played well tonight”. But then he went into a bit more about it being a professional performance and not getting frustrated, so he was hopefully just referring to dealing with the Titans cheating.

*EDIT everyone beat me to it...

I’m just annoyed that Badger was probably dropped for not being harsher on Canberra and missing the “offside” charge down, rather than being dropped for not being harsher on the Titans and sin binning them. At least that was the vibe Annesley gave in his presser. Focussed on the nil offside calls ag...

With all the hate Starling is receiving, I’m surprised he’s not Billy’s new favourite player

Finchy

Ricky was quoted saying he thought Mrs Badger had done a good job. In hindsight maybe she didn’t. Winning the game put Ricky in a better mood than Des. I have no doubt whatsoever if Titans had of won the game our coach would have went full psycho. Considering what we now know about the 28 set resta...

Finchy

Annesley making a huge deal about a player just one metre offside in Golden Point isn’t good for his inexperienced female referee and also for all the referees who’ve let go much worse decisions go across the history of Golden Point games. Why single out her decision in such detail, choosing the ex...

Here is an interesting thought 3 way immediate swap deal. Lomax released to the Eels, Sanders to the Raiders and Woolford to the Dragons. Would this be in the Raiders best interest? We have 4 middle of the road hookers, but little halves depth. It's not really a benefit to us. We get Sanders sure, ...

Finchy

Actually I had a thought about the charge down. Penalty for the charge down is 6 again. Let’s say it gets blown. Foran is still taking that kick and Chevy is still charging it down. Then Titans knock on. Then it’s Raiders ball. Nothing changes the outcome here even if it’s called offside. Chevy is ...

It’s incredible how nearly every voter has Tapine as the best on ground, yet the likes of Billy and the Dally M judges can’t even give him a single point I actually find it more incredible that you think it's incredible, or that he's somebody to actually be taken seriously. I was being sarcastic, a...

Finchy

Not to forget we had a first game fullback and a 5/8 with all of 5 games of NRL experience. Easy to blame the coach for not playing rookies and then when we run out with a backline that average 21 years old, except for Fogarty, we blame the coach because the backline looks clunky under pressure. Ho...

“Whitehead”

Finchy

Or.... poor judge of onfield contributions

Finchy

I don’t understand how anyone watches that game this weekend, where Raiders dominated field position and possession and couldn’t turn it into corresponding scoreboard dominance, and thinks “yeah, let’s drop the attacking weapon scoring doubles for fun and bring back one of two players who last scor...

Finchy

That’s a really interesting read.

I also note that statistically we should have have won that game 33-8. Incredible it ended the way it did.

Finchy

So you disagree with it?

I hate updates when they aren’t real updates. “Breaking news! Injury update! We’ll get scans and wait for the results to see how bad it is!”

In other words no more info than we already knew when it happened.

(Not a criticism of you GE, just these injury update releases in general)

Finchy

Annesley highlighting as good news that close games are a positive always concerns me. It’s also been referred to by referee officials previously as a benchmark of referee success. This is what leads to a change in the way referees make calls when one team is down by ten points or more. Too many ga...

Finchy

I don't even agree with Annesley that Stewart was offside. He was in front of the goal line, but the Titans player was behind the 10m line. The ref made the 10m too big. He was 10m back from the play the ball.

Finchy

Raiders gunna get smashed by the refs moving forward, based on Annesley's presser. Ricky was right and the stats show it, but Annesley seems more focused on the assumption Canberra should have been pinged on a few occasions and were offside on the charge down, rather than the fact the Titans got awa...

Finchy

While not a pretty win , it showed us how to fight and scrap for a win. We already knew how to do that, that was all of our wins last year. We need to move beyond that level of play against crap opposition. Scrap for wins against the Storm or Broncos. We should be putting the likes of the Titans to...

Haha that was a great presser from Ricky. Ended up deluxe!

Finchy

How many tries did Schiller let in again tonight? Was it 2 for 2 at least? He really needs to work on his defence.

Finchy

Haha watch Hasler's presser. He's channeling Ricky. Blaming the ref. Chevy apparently offside at the charge down.

Finchy

Do you blokes really think we will win every game by 30? Even when Penrith was the most dominant team in the comp, teams would "get up" for it and they'd barely eke out a win sometimes, especially against some of the bottom teams. The Titans were winless which means if you think about it ...
