Same team with Oldie in for Cotric, if he’s suspended as I expect he will be. Much rather Oldie than Kris.

Same team.
Kris for Cotric.
Sutton for Guler, if he is fit.
Am I right saying Young has 1 more wk?

Matty, what’s your thinking for Kris over Oldie? I know he’s new but don’t think Kris has shown much. Oldie’s hit-ups have been fanatic and his finishing is as good as anyone’s.

Okay, so you were predicting what Ricky would do rather than stating your preference? Fair enough.

I just don’t see how Kris can be ahead on form or even potential for this season.

I think Oldfield brings more to our team than Kris. Plus a bit more experience.

Completely agree. Kris has had 3 or 4 goes now and shown very little to distinguish himself from being a plodder.

Against a stronger team I’d genuinely consider Bateman at right centre if Sutton is fit to come back in. Given the Tigers left edge isn’t the best though I’d pick Oldfield for this one and see how he goes in terms of who plays there in the coming weeks.
well, I guess you could say that I'm buy curious.

If Kris got injured for the Mounties and Sutton is fit again, the two changes are reasonably obvious. Cotric and Guler out.

Should be a good game. The Tigers are a decent team but we need to build a little momentum. I hope Stuart has got into the players heads that we will win this game through hard work in defence, not by going into the match expecting to win by 30.

I'll be at this game, and last time I went to a Raiders v Tigers game it was a downright thrashing! I feel it's going to be the same story this week, bring on 56-0!

1. CNK
2. Simonsson
3. Croker (c)
4. Kris if fit/Oldbeard otherwise
5. Rapana
6. Wighton
7. Sezer
8. Papalii
9. Hodgson (c)
10. Lui
11. Tapine (just make the switch already Rick, scored his first try in forever when he went back wide to cover Elliott. Just doesn't belong in the middle)
12. Whitehead
13. Bateman (again, just make the switch already, perfectly suited to the middle!)

14. Havili
15. Soliola
16. Horsburgh (gotta admit, he looked ok last night. Only one silly penalty I can remember)
17. Sutton if fit/Guler otherwise

Kris has done his job and done it well when give the chance, he's flashed some real potential too, i'd definitely go with him over Oldy if he's available.
If not, Oldy will do the job for us.

It was reported in the Mounties game day thread that Kris went off with a serious ankle/leg injury in the 78th minute

Edit: realise that’s been covered in the above posts

Yep - we run out of fingers and toes counting the margin this week and so we should - we are shaping up as a real deal and quality teams put average teams away in games like this.

Good to see you’re slowly getting on the Hors Nickman - he comes out a million miles an hour and blows up pretty quickly but it was a good effort he put in last night.

He had a much better game last night, but he's still not in my strongest 17 once Young and Sutton are back.

Canberra Raiders dining out on golden archer

What's with that try scoring celebration from Canberra Raiders fullback Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad?

"There was this winger that used to play for the Warriors, Henry Faafili," Nicoll-Klokstad explains. "He used to do the bow and arrow and I thought it was pretty cool. I just thought if I score I'll give it a go. That's all."

Interesting Charnze only thought Nick Cotric had been sin binned... and only realised it was more with a few minutes to go!
