Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2023

Maybe the nrl should make a squad the size of 50 or more, different tiers of the cap so to speak, say a top 35, with 15 spots available to juniors ready for firsts and journeymen/utilities/squad fillers. But to do that, then more needs to be spent on qld and nsw cup to keep the reserve grade sides v...

Re: Penrith Panthers second rower Zac Hosking tours Canberra Raiders HQ ahead of potential move

I see him as a journeyman depth signing. Panthers got good value out of him this past season but turning 27 in February next year, he is a late bloomer.

Re: Penrith Panthers second rower Zac Hosking tours Canberra Raiders HQ ahead of potential move

To be fair, I thought he might be a matt lodge type liability, a penalty away from losing you a game type player, when at the broncos, but looked clean of those issues with the panthers, he might knock us back too, he's not signed yet

Re: Penrith second rower Zac Hosking reportedly tours Raiders HQ

He's not Fifita or 1 of the Cows guys, but he's a useful edge player. He's a workrate guy. Can run a good line too. Solid 1st grader. I've said it all along, we are short a big nasty. However, I suspect during a rebuilding phase, we are looking for guys who love the dirty stuff. Could be a lot of t...

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2023

In my opinion, Strange didn't look out of place in firsts, I'll form another opinion after 10 games,
But a decent debut, and those saying out of position, he played centre for nsw, so yeah, there is always that.
