2021 NSW Cup

Player stats are up now: https://www.nswrl.com.au/draw/nsw-cup/2 ... v-magpies/

HSS 222 run metres.

I hate how they half do things. We know HSS ran for 222 metres but why don't they put up all the stats for all the players. They just have the minutes played (which is handy) and the points scoring. I could have seen that from the scores page.

All the stats should be there, you need to keep scrolling to the right

I think the injury was just speculation but you'd have to think he could have squeezed in after a couple of omissions, so injury seems like a good bet.
I don't know where you fit him in at full strength. Trevilyan maybe heads back to the lower grade and Cook is the bench Utility?
I expect us not to re-sign Aekins next year and Cook becomes the fulltime backup fullback.

Although this year if CNK does go down we could just as easily so Simonsson or Rapana switch to fullback and the edge back in form goes into top grade eg Kris or HSS.

As I was saying, well done to the website people at the NSWRL for providing such comprehensive statistics for our viewing!!!

No seriously, thank you Makavelli for pointing that out, even if I do feel a bit of a fool now!!

Gee Tom Starling had a big game. In 73 mins he had his hands on the ball 77 times and made 41 tackles whilst running 135 metres with the ball.

A few people have suggested that Aekins is just a full in. I am not sure I agree with that, I rate him.

We really do have an extra 6 players in our back 5 that could do a job. Aekins, Hopoate, Smith-Shields, Timoko, Valemei and Cook have all played first grade. Which ones can make the step up will be interesting to see.

[zim]

Next year we'll need to make a choice. Whether to keep developing Cook who's probably here in 2022 (club offer) or retain Aekins.
Given how natural Cook is as a ball player I'd be leaning that way.

I thought Hopoate looked real promising. Would like to hold on to him next season if we can.

I know this thread is about NSW Cup, but often there are a lot of questions about streaming games. If you are also into Qld Cup, they are going to stream one game each Saturday (normally 2.40pm Qld time) and one each Sunday (normally 2.10pm Qld time) on Kayo starting from this Saturday.

Hopefully we will one day get to the stage where every NSW Cup / Qld Cup game is streamed somewhere.

Gee that is risky betting. Betting on reserve grade premiers is a real lottery. So much can change with lists. We have seen Newtown win the comp from 7th and 8th in recent times.

Use a dart board, that is as good at predicting that grade.

The original ground and timeslot was double booked with an under 9's soccer match

Suspect it has something to do with the weather...

[Bay53]

Raiders Facebook page has confirmed the NSW Cup game today is off.

[Bay53]

There is a spare weekend. On the weekend of Magic round there is a game between Norths and Wests on the Thursday night obviously to cover that slot for Foxtel, but everyone else has the bye. I suspect any games washed out this weekend will be played then.

Amateur hour. Why can’t it be played at Netstrata on Sunday ?

[-TW-]

Probably to not chop up the ground

There is a Jersey Flegg match still scheduled there as the warm up... but that could get postponed too, to preserve the surface. Today’s Flegg game is off, as is one tomorrow, by the looks.

The other alternative would have been to transfer it to Canberra earlier in the week. Not raining here at all.

[Makaveli]

Mounties are playing Penrith right now at BankWest which will be the third game in three days here with the NRL to follow immediately

[Makaveli]

The Newcastle Newtown game was also cancelled from Friday but it has been moved to Sunday at PointsBet Stadium.

I guess some surfaces are designed to handle it, but traditional grounds aren’t.

[zim]

Today's FC vs Victory game was called off because of the condition of Netstrata. Happy to see no one getting on that ground until we do.

[Bay53]

I promise you if the Mounties v Panthers game wasn’t on tv it wouldn’t be being played.

I am at the ground and it is bucketing down. Surface is superb but puddles are starting to form.

The A League and W League games that were scheduled for Kogarah tonight are off.

BTW Looking at the condition of HE Laybutt Field, where they’re playing their third game of the day... the Raiders NSW Cup game could easily have been played there. It’s in absolute superb condition, as if it hadn’t been raining. It is a regular NSW Cup venue for the Blacktown Sea Eagles. It apparently has drainage channels a metre or two apart, right down the field. It looks a bit brown and bare at times, but it sure handled today’s conditions with ease.

[Makaveli]

Newtown Newcastle game now also canceled.

Looks like only the Magpies V Bears at Campbelltown is going ahead tomorrow at the moment. And given how poor that ground is, I wouldn’t bet on it proceeding either.

AT A GLANCE:

This week: The Canberra Raiders' Round 2 match against the Parramatta Eels was postponed on Saturday, after a deluge hit Sydney. Two NSW Cup games took place last weekend - but Canberra has remained in third place on the ladder, on points differential. The Raiders now face their former NSW Cup affiliate, Mounties, at Canberra Stadium on Saturday - in what might be a bit of a grudge match. Mt Pritchard defected to the Canterbury Bulldogs in 2020, after an eight year partnership with the Raiders. Saturday's match will be a warm up for the NRL match between the Raiders and Warriors.

The sixth placed Mounties are coming off a 28-8 loss to the Panthers last Saturday at Western Sydney Stadium. Mounties led 8-0 after 12 minutes, scoring the first two tries of the game. But the Panthers then piled on 28 unanswered points. Mounties have a 1 and 1 record to start the season, after beating the Knights in Round 1. The Raiders produced a good 32-18 win over the Western Suburbs Magpies in Round 1, after a rusty first half.

The Raiders and Mounties have never previously faced each other in NSW Cup - as Mounties' affiliation with the Raiders was the reason for their elevation to the NSW Cup in 2012.

Team changes: The Raiders' backline is basically unchanged from the team that defeated the Magpies in Round 1 - but wingers Semi Valemei and Albert Hopoate have switched positions. Emre Guler and Corey Horsburgh will be the starting props, with Keaton Walkington-Meads dropping to the reserves list. Kai O'Donnell comes into the second row for Harry Rushton. Leo Thompson replaces Caleb Esera on the bench. Misi Tapa joins the reserves list.

It is a bit like running into your ex after she has shacked up with someone else isn't it?

Didn’t he get 3 games from the NRL?

Edit, just googled it 2 games.

Ricky laying down the law!
