Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018

Maloney won’t move to Canberra, we would have to pay such overs that we can’t afford. Won’t happen (I’d love it to happen)

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018

I reckon Wighton to 5/8 is a good move. Sure he failed last time but he is not the player he was last time. We also have a much more dominant 9 this time. I've been critical of his positioning at the back for a while but cannot doubt his defense or running game... Stuart tried Wigjton at half in hi...

Re: Sack Ricky

Agree with everything above. It’s at the point where you can’t defend him anymore. I don’t blame him for mistakes, missed tackles etc But I do blame coaches for things like defensive structures, bench rotation, fitness, general game plan. If any of the teams I’ve coached played like that, I would ha...

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018

GE it’s hope that hurts us raiders fans...after the last two seasons and lack of signings I’d lost hope.....therefore can’t be hurt.

But now you’ve given me hope again....I’m scared

Re: Raiders have granted Craig Garvey’s request for a release

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018

I’ve been waiting patiently for one big signing in one of the 2 spots we need, a prop and a half. In my opinion I’m not being unreasonable that the club can def get one of these positions filled as most clubs would cover both. But if we don’t sign either b4 next year we need to sack management Sent ...

Re: Joe Tapine facing two-week ban

He doesn’t lift the leg “above” horizontal in comparison to his hips so fight it.

The way he ducked he could nearly spear himself while having his feet still on the ground
