Let’s settle this. In order to criticise the performance of a coach or player, I don’t need to be able to demonstrate that I could do better. I just need to be capable of understanding the basic measures of good and bad performance. Such measures for a coach include finals appearances, win percentag...

He's spot on, he's talking about all the know everything **** on social media, if the shoe fits, lace it up people. no matter what he say's he cops it, everyone just looking to spin his words and make it something it's not, i can see that just from reading the comments here. So many parra fans stil...

What a glass jaw. Incredible.

I'm not saying it's going to happen, I'm just saying Tim Gavel ruling it out doesn't fill me with confidence that it won't happen

I will never not be angry about the contract extension to 2020

We support the Canberra Raiders, not the Queanbeyan Leagues Club, not the Stuart family, not St Edmunds College, not the Mcintyre family farm, Not the Furners. . And there were have the gap in thinking between the fans and those who run the club. Nails it. Also expresses the dilemma I face when dec...

would have involved some heavy supervision/editing, I'm guessing

Now I’m wondering if Rodman ever finished that PhD he was doing

luke

The only reason our halves are consistently called upon to win us games in clutch situations is our inability to defend. I am not even convinced a so called “dominant half” can work when we have Hodgson (and, to a lesser extent, Wighton) in our spine. Williams and Sezer are fine - we made a run to ...

imo only. j Bateman will be a starter Sutton isn't a starter yet 6 is our most contentious Jersey. Sent from my SM-G950F using The Greenhouse mobile app powered by Tapatalk It's not contentious. Jack Wighton will be starting No. 6 next year. There is no other real option. Unless some miracle signin...

between the 4 coaches the win percentage needle only moves 3.4% between the best and the worst.. about 1 game a season difference? They're all cut from the same cloth... What's that old saying? The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results? This cl...

agree, Azza

luke

So bad was this Jared Crocker that he could not get the refs to listen to him/not rev up the boys enough behind the sticks FROM OFF THE FIELD

luke

And yeah agree Cotric was outstanding

luke

umm just to note ATTACK ISNT OUR PROBLEM

luke

A simple change of captain alone will not fix something systemic like our late game fades. That is a huge issue. I'm not sure where anyone's said that, and I don't think that was the point people are trying to make. It's a part of a number of changes that need to happen. From what I can see in the ...

Not sure I can renew my membership if Ricky is coach next season.

Croker in the post match to the tune of: i thought the game was lost and we had no chance. Austin came on an kept saying we still had time and we could still win this. Our captains mindset was that we had lost while a bloke that we are shipping off and had demoted to the bench has the we can still ...

luke

Ref pull is such a garbage answer. We're the Raiders. They didn't listen to Tongue, they didn't listen to Campo, they don't listen to Croker, they won't listen to Hodgson. Simple. As for the line in the press conference, maybe the skipper thought we'd lose because in spite of him having a whale of ...

luke

I have seen Hodgson make some very poor decisions when game management was required.

Also, how do we measure "ref pull"? Is there a stat?

luke

Panthers/Tigers ultimately proved correct: Austin is a bench player

luke

Ah geez really we’re still talking about this?

luke

You didn’t actually understand that ay

luke

the list of non-mediocre captains and players since 1908 who never won a premiership would probably be quite long

Was ET a good captain? How about Wiki? Thoughts on James Graham as a captain? What about Wayne Pearce? Dean Lance, was he any good? (yes he won a comp, but not as a captain!!!!!)

so, logically, Hodgo shouldn't be captain now yeah?

luke

I think it was pretty clear over the weekend how the team lifted and went to a different level with Hodgson on the field. He is the real leader in this team and Croker needs to stand a side Sent from my iPhone using The Greenhouse actually, Conor, is this you trolling me from an alt account? "...
