Lol the proof is in the pudding really. I don't even need to say it. The man has been involved in elite rugby/league for 40 years. You people sit on an online forum and take satisfaction in bagging the bloke like you are experts and have all the information. The longevity of his career says it all....

Objective performance measures are independent of the observer. That means the measurement is done using something other than the person observing. This independent measure can include: a stop-watch, measuring tape or record of goals. The objectivity of the performance measure is increased through ...

Id be tempted to make a wager that Savage will never play first grade for the Raiders again. I dont know that i'd win the wager, i actually think i'd probably lose and he'd get a game sometime, but i dont think it's as unlikely as it might seem on its face. Would honestly not surprise me if he aske...

While we don't seem to be in the market for anyone, I saw Gould on the 7 news tonight saying that the Dogs expect another 8 or 9 new faces next year.... of course he didn't actually specify in their top 30, but still, the expectation is there.

Meanwhile, in Canberra, crickets...

I was going to say the same... and the BJ relationship soured very quickly and got ugly. Likely because he put faith in a guy and it cost him a premiership and he might never get another shot at one. I was very reliably told some years ago that Joey was the Raiders' equal highest paid player despit...

Can someone tell me how we were going to score 26 + points to beat Cronulla by playing the way we did ? And the coach asked for more grind at half time ? Cronulla's defence can be shaky, but we didn't even move the ball much 10 m from the ruck. When we did, Wighton made two breaks. It was mostly on...

Worst thing about the press conference is that Ricky still thinks we are unlucky. Rapana not grounding the ball etc are skill errors - nothing to do with luck. We’ve been the worst team in the comp at converting half chances for a very long time now. So after watching it, it's clear that our entire...

So that was good and then it was awful... On the Kris argument, you could see he didn't really mean it and he had arms around both legs, not between them, etc, but he dropped a bloke on his head. Three weeks would be great, it should be four or five and he'll probably get eight. But that's the cynic...

Yes, one last dance - like Elaine

This was from round 1, the first match, Parra v Storm: Ridicule me all you want, but even before that game I was thinking neither of those teams make the 8. Nothing i saw tonight makes me change my mind. No ridicule, but that’s a pretty hot take. We’d struggle against either team tonight. They may n...

now there's an attitude the coach could learn from

Changing the subject entirely, did it seem to anyone else like the Broncos bought up blocks of hundreds of tickets and bussed in three thousand squealing children?

Why isn't he from Newcastle?

I said it in another thread but with how Strange is looking at 5/8th in lower grades and with Sanders on the way, and Chevy as well... those are really good young players i'd be hesitate to buy over the top of However i do cede the point that we need SOME experience in the spine and i see hooker as...

I gave up on that glimmer, sorry....

It doesn't matter who I think should be the 17. This is who it will be: 1. Jordan Rapana 2. Albert Hopoate 3. Jarrod Croker 4. Matt Timoko 5. Nick Cotric 6. Jack Wighton 7. Jamal Fogarty 8. Emre Guler 9. Zac Woolford 10. Joseph Tapine 11. Hudson Young 12. Elliott Whitehead 13. Corey Horsburgh 14. To...

What are the odds on signing anyone who is not from Newcastle?

I heard the team news on abc at 4.04 today, in the car on the way home from Melbourne (so no, I'm not at all bitter about the 400 bucks I spent on tickets for that...) I was not at all surprised to hear that Strange had been replaced by Croker - I'm sure the description isn't "dropped". Bu...

If we're serious Wighton won't play for us again. Except we're not and he'll be the first one named on Tuesday Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk Certainly not at 6. Quite bizarrely, Wighton was allowed to play on both sides of the field much more than he ever has. Sitting behind the dead ball lin...

Me too. Can you believe the ticket prices? No wonder they all sit at the ends and not the main stands!

Only seen the first half of the tape so far, but I now finally know how the Tigers got a penalty in the last second. Don't agree but at least I know.... So Gough wasn't very good, and in the first half there were at least two decisions which were incomprehensible at the ground and glossed over (ie, ...

Hudson Young has been NSW Cup quality recently. I just don't really see an end game for him being a quality NRL second rower week in and week out. He runs around like a headless chook and defends at an average level. He scores a lot of opportunist tries which makes him valuable for us, but for a su...

ah Ricky - the Tony Gustavsonn of league coaching

Or do I have that the wrong way round?

Lui_Bon

I'd be ok with Ray Faitala-Mariner about now. Nothing special but tries hard. Not a tool.

Lui_Bon

I'm going to call him "Barry"

Lui_Bon

Our turn around in form as a club usually involves the players picking players like Croker. Or running their own training drills, so yeah, its not going to affect our season too much. Go for it Ricky, would be good to see the end of that latte drinking city boy fittler* , and some fire bought back ...

I like Crawley saying "if you’ve watched the Raiders this year".... because it doesn't seem like anyone who's actually watched ever mentions them in the media.

Des Hasler would kill to be this far under the radar.

What does Woolford offer Botman? This star of yours couldn’t even get a run at the start of the year. Levi had to go down injured for him to get his recall. Woodford gives good crisp service, that’s about it. Running game? Meh. Kicking? Nope. Silky passing skills? Nah. IQ? Zero. Maybe Levi is crap,...

One of the worst games I've ever seen Val Holmes play. Harry Grant was well below par as well. Kaloamatangi was great. Why is Jurbo a prop? One of the biggest differences was the complete lack of anything from AJ Brimson. Oh yeah, he was a disappointment. I was just cherrypicking a few randoms, I'm...

How are people having the opinion that Woolford isn’t a starting hooker, when for the last 2 years he clearly is. We’ve won 74% of games he plays. He’s not Harry Grant but he’s the best we’ve got and playing well We've won a bunch of games with Saulo, Valemei, Frawley, Oldfield, Gubb as well, doesn...
