Great signing - now let’s get the kid a game. Liked his comments about how much he loves Canberra and wants to stay. Terrible negotiation strategy but lovely comments!

Canberra Raiders young gun Matt Timoko re-signs for two more as next generation continues to grow
A new generation of potential Raiders stars is being assembled by the club as it begins to pick out the green shoots from a wretched 2021.
"It's a credit to our development and our recruitment with Peter Mulholland that we've got these young players that can come through and get this opportunity, there's a number of these players," Raiders coach Ricky Stuart said.

Very happy to hear this. I've been impressed with him every time I've seen him in first grade.
Which isn't often enough, unfortunately.
I'd pick him at right centre and leave him there. He and Valemei freshen up the three-quarters and give them a more potent, youthful look.

This young fella should be starting. He's a much better player than Croker (current form).

An outside back quartet of Savage, Kris, Timoko, and Simonsson gives me some hope. None are close to being stars (yet), but there's a lot of promise, speed, and ability there.
The key now to unlock them is a revamped attack and an attacking fullback, coupled with an upgrade on halfback.

If all players are fit and Simo got picked over Valemei, I would storm the Raiders HQ

Re: Canberra Raiders re-sign Matt Timoko to end 2024
Still looks like a winger capable of making meters and having a turn of speed, neither of which Simo has shown on the wing this year.afgtnk wrote: ↑July 11, 2021, 10:57 amNot exactly setting the world on fire of late is SemiCanberra Milk wrote: ↑July 11, 2021, 9:05 am If all players are fit and Simo got picked over Valemei, I would storm the Raiders HQ
Re: Canberra Raiders re-sign Matt Timoko to end 2024
Pretty sure Simo's much faster, and has shown as much in the breaks he's made recently. Semi's a relative slug.
If we want a winger who's solely making metres then we may as well keep Rapana, who's making more than both. Rapa is a better finisher than Semi too and probably still quicker.
