Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2024
Sandon Smith from the chooks is a guy I'd be keen to pursue as a 9. I’d go the other Smith That contract has been a disaster for them, he’s not played very well although I thought his last few weeks before I left were solid He’d be a big bet and one that could go wrong… but it’s a bet I’d make eyes...

Re: Ethan Strange re-signs with Raiders to end 2028
Cotric's problem is he went to Sydney/Bulldogs. He lost direction being away from Mum, didn't really fit in and worst the dogs training ( or his away from the club training with mansour etc) changed his shape and style. I've seen this notion thrown around quite a bit that the dogs move ruined his c...

Re: Newcastle Knights sign Canberra Raiders back James Schiller
I like schiller, have wanted him to see more first grade for some time but I kind of get why we wouldn't want to pay too much for him, I reckon his best position is right centre and the problem is he ain't better than matty Timoko so you wouldn't want to overspend. Also think Asomua's style and phys...

Re: 2024 Round 7 v Broncos: Teams and Previews
I am expecting to see SimiS named later today. That will be a good thing. I have been impressed with what he has produced so far in Green. Have to feel for ZacH though. I'm expecting Ata in the starting side, Simi on the bench. Ata was very good on an edge v Titans. He's a good footballer. yea hes ...

Re: 2024 Round 6 v Titans: Game Day
If we ever have a game officiated by Badger, hold down all day, have your hands all over the ball and know she will never make a call on the fly. So take the tackle before the bunker can fix her mistake. Except for, y’know, all the restarts and penalties she blew and the fact she got the majority o...

Re: 2024 Round 6 v Titans: Game Day
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. I actually think ...

Re: 2024 Round 2 v Tigers: Game Day
Honestly Whitehead can't just walk into the starting 13. Hosking's has been brilliant . He has to retain the right side 2nd row position. Smithies is our lock , which means Horse moves to the front row. Guler to drop out. We are developing into a good team , we have strong platform with our forward...

Re: 2024 Round 1 v Knights: Game Day
DWZ scored 21 tries last year, i'd be staggered if CNK didnt play a major part in at least half of those whether he got the TA for it is another matter.
Johnson is obviously a major factor, but so is the attacking structure(coaching)

Great competitive test match. Kiwis dropped catches killed them.

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2024
think we offered something similar to get Tapine from Newcastle.
It is what it is for the Raiders. no one else is taking our money, established top tier halves would knock us back even if we doubled that offer .

I'm no Levi fan boy but Stuart was probably never going to toss him aside after only 120mins of first grade for the club.
I also think Woolfords form was very ordinary in 2023 and people are probably remembering his 2022 season
