Re: 2024 Rd 1 v Knights: Teams and Previews *Teams p1

Haven’t had time to comment on the team… my main concern is Levi starting. I don’t know what Zac Woolford does every off season to **** off Ricky Stuart but it happens every year. Woolford should be starting, Levi not in the team. I love Strange being selected at five eighth. I didn’t expect it. Ho...

Re: 2024 Rd 1 v Knights: Teams and Previews *Teams p1

Disappointing team. Levi and Hoppa indicate it's another season of pet projects taking priority over winning.

I also just don't get Rapa at fullback at this stage of his career. Common sense says that should be Savage, just like last season.

If the Raiders go to Vegas next year I'll 100% consider going.

We really don't have a fear of rejection as a club do we. I can't remember the last time we put our hand up for anything and were chosen, whether recruitment or appearing in these types of events.

Re: 2024 Rd 1 v Knights: Teams and Previews

Penrith are pretty unique in that I don’t think their hooker really directs and drives the forwards like most clubs That’s Yeo’s job I think there is also a baseline level of competence you need in a hooker to really allow your forward pack to dominate, I think the panthers hookers are actually dec...

Although I still don’t think they’ve got the forward pack quite right, I reckon they’ve nailed the back line. If that team is the inside word I suppose the plan is to revert back to CHors at lock and Taps at prop post-suspension. Other than locked in Edub that is probably our best collection of pla...

Ricky is conservative. He will go with Hop ... No Rapana. I just think that having two new, young and inexperienced spine members for Round 1 is too much for him.

Re: Raiders reject request from Dragons to release Zac Woolford

The highest priority move for our team this offseason was an early extension for Danny Levi. I'm pretty sure many on here would be calling Woolford delusional if said he's happy to be here in 2024 to give the Premiership a shake.

That's not where we're at.
