Interesting he's being billed as a "speed demon" there That's not how i've seen him in open space. He's quick don't get me wrong, but the "speed demon" tag is usually reserved for guys with JAC/Savage sort of speed. I havent seen that level of speed thus far. The kid is lightnin...

Why would you have a b grade second rower tour the facilities and look to sign them a year out from when we need them ?

Re: Canberra Raiders team for 2024

Worries me that we have both the 5th and 6th oldest players in the NRL going into this season. Why? Botman always says Fathertime is undefeated. Botman isn't wrong on that either I agree If Fog goes down I reckon Strange to play half and Whitehead 5/8... depends how smellys been training 14. Weekes

Re: Toughest preseason ever 2024

Don't need to worry about defence if your always attacking. We have a good forward pack, origin and international players and some genuine fast players in the backs.
Pick the young kids while we have a kick ass forward pack, and sit back and enjoy the ride

Let's be honest, if you had options and the money was similar then Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane are the first choice. Bigger cities, close to beaches, better weather, more entertainment. The thing is the raiders don't lose too many in their prime if they get them young but it's next to impossible ...

Are we signing this bloke or not ? I believe Rick is still waiting for the results of Hosking’s blood tests from his medical. Apparently there’s some uncertainty around how green it can potentially be, and his willingness to bleed it. Cool, I'd hate to sign a player that didn't bleed the right amou...

The way Savage improved week after week in 2022 was proof to me he can handle NRL on a weekly basis. He had some ok moments in defence, and some outstanding moments in attack.

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2023

At least our attack won't be stifled by Jack this year, 50% of the time this year it was his mistake, or penalty
That would be hard to coach around that when your star player has no form.

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
