Re: 2024 Round 9 v Sea Eagles: Game Day
Gonna cop some grief for saying this but.... It appears to me as Papas heart just isnt in it anymore.... I mean whens the last time he has a real barnstorming game? these days hes lucky to make 100 metres and rarely bends the line... last week he had 5 errors too. its just sad to see cause i love a...

Re: 2024 Round 9 v Sea Eagles: Game Day
Let's not get carried away. We didn't get the rub of the green from the ref, but Manly were ordinary. Nevertheless a great win away from home!

Just when I said that Whitehead has passed it he ignites a Raider's come back. One of the great victories!

Re: 2024 Round 9 v Sea Eagles: Game Day
Whitehead is not fit enough to play NRL, yet, there he is. The Raider's look like a rudderless ship yet again under the master coach.

Re: 2024 Round 9 v Sea Eagles: Teams and Previews *Teams p1
We have one relative strength which is our forward pack. I say relative because not infrequently they leave their superiority on paper and don’t show up. But anyway, insofar as we have any area of strength, it is our forward pack. The only hooker who has proven to be able to get the forward pack ro...

Can't understand how Levi and Starling make the side. No upside with either one; Starling's service is so slow at dummy half and Levi, well he's just not NRL quality.

Re: 2024 Round 8 v Sharks: Game Day
The whole team got run off the park from the first 5 minutes. Sharks have about 5 gears the Raiders don’t and I doubt personnel changes make a heap of difference to that. I just dont think they have it in them to play with that intensity. The most important change is in the coaching department. Ric...

Re: 2023 Finals Week 1 v Knights: Game Day
Raiders are losers. Who can be satisfied conceding four ridiculously soft tries and then being unable to kick a simple field goal like u9’s are trained to do? And then topping it off with a kick out on the full and a dumb penalty to end our season? This is vintage Raiders, entirely predictable, sam...

If the Raiders go into the game with the same tactics and basically the same personnel (minus Kriss of course), they may as well surrender now.

Re: 2023 Rd 27 v Sharks: Teams and Previews
If this is not a smokescreen, Stuart has completely lost the plot. This is the most important game for the year and our defence was unable to counter the Donkeys speed out wide and he has again selected Croker! Our forwards also took a battering, meaning, Croker is denying another forward on the ben...

I thought we were dudded with a few calls and quite a few piggy back penalties getting them out of trouble.

Re: 2023 Rd 25 v Bulldogs: Game Day
That will do me. With 20s on the clock and 10 mtrs out Fogarty goes for a FG instead kicking for a possible try. One pt is not going to win this. Absolute debacle again. We don't deserve to be in the 8 and the way things are going, we soon won't be.
