I’d like to put forward Michael Hagan as the person to conduct the reviewRaider47 wrote:I honestly believe this thread and who we sign is completely irrelevant for as long as we have Stuart as coach, Furner as CEO and the club setup the way it is. Any signings will just paper over the cracks. If that. We have bigger issues than who is our starting front row next season or who will partner Sezer in the halves. I think even if we were to sign someone like Cleary or Maloney, our position wouldn't be hugely better off. Or if it was, it would be better off for 1 season before back to mediocrity.
Our coaching staff needs be put under serious review and so to our administration.

I think Sticky should conduct the review - after all, no one looks at the games harder than him. Anyone else who tried to do a review would just end up with it shoved in their faces.
Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018
He has a perpetual review happening and has concluded that we are just the unluckiest team in World sports.
Shoving it in your face since 2017

Yeah I think if he wants to continue playing first grade his next shift has to be towards the middle. Starting as impact off the bench.

Ryley Jacks is a good chance of being at Canberra next season with Blake Austin heading to St Helens

- Looking for a chance wants a couple of year contract with an asking price of around $300K and is not from Sydney so no reason to head back.
- Good kicking game
- Good talker/Organiser
-Not from Sydney so every
- can find the tryline due to a decent running game but also stays involved in the play.
-Has been in the Storm system for a number of years so learnt from the best.
- defended well in the strong system whenever given a chance.
Cons
I’m only going to write one because it is a big one.
- With Cronk moving on why hasn’t he nailed down a spot at the storm.
Overall I would be happy with signing him on a two year deal with a third in our favour. Their are no other options on the market and if it doesn’t work out you allow Williams to walk at the end of 2019 and play him as your back up in 2020.
Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018
26yo, been at chooks, titans and storm for a grand total of 22 nrl games all at melb.
I hope he's cheap

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018
$300k for Jacks, $5-600k (plus Dogs Chipping in) for Klemmer.
Thats a well spent $800k considering the offers we tabled for Austin/Paulo/Boyd.

Yep klemmer and jacks will do me then. Wont happen though, the 29 year old rookie half playing for the dragons will probably have a half decent game and we will sign him to big money

I reckon we only really have enough for minimum wagers left.

Looks like Gubb has all but signed to a Superleague club, perhaps immediately.

Seems we aren't taking his option up.

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018
Surprised by this decision, he would be on minimum wage and whilst you don’t want him anywhere near your top 17 every club needs a player of Gubbs standard toiling away in reserve grade.chris83 wrote:Losing gubb is no big deal, hopefully it frees up some cash to put towards klemmer!!
We have now lost 3 middles our stocks would be very low for next season and so far we have replaced the loses with a young kid unproven at NRL level in Sutton.
Everything points to us chasing Klemmer!

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018
We have WAY WAY WAY to many fringe middle players this year. Happy to lose a couple of them. If we lose Paulo/Boyd/Gubb and replace with Klemmer/Sutton/Bateman the second, I would say that a better overall moving forward. Back that up with Sia/Lui/Little Bateman/Knight and Guler - thats not too bad for a team thats screwed the pooch with the salary cap.RTW wrote: ↑July 5, 2018, 3:57 pmSurprised by this decision, he would be on minimum wage and whilst you don’t want him anywhere near your top 17 every club needs a player of Gubbs standard toiling away in reserve grade.chris83 wrote:Losing gubb is no big deal, hopefully it frees up some cash to put towards klemmer!!

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018
Surely losing boyd paulo austin and now gubb would free up enough cash to throw at klemmer? I know we have signed the two poms but surely just surely........please lord sign klemmer and give me SOME hope for next year

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018
I agree. Esp when we look a centre/ winger short in the depth department. We are very lucky that BJ and Croker seem to stay healthy.Coastalraider wrote: ↑July 5, 2018, 4:04 pmWe have WAY WAY WAY to many fringe middle players this year. Happy to lose a couple of them.

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018
Is the pommy Batemen up to the middle? And I would add Papalii as a middle going forward.
Problem is that Ricky clearly for whatever reason doesn’t trust Knight and he isn’t going to get any better watching games from the bench. Klemmer is a massive pipe dream, Luke Batemen is a plodder and hopefully I am wrong but Ricky appears reluctant to bring Guler through this year.

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018
Ill be honest. I'm not WOWed by that. He looks a solid player, but no better than that. I wouldn't say he is better than Sammy or Sezer.
Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2018
Agreed, i'm not wowed either. I would be if it was either Croft or Scott Drinkwater but not Jacks. He is just average made to look better in a good system.

Klemmer and Jacks would round out the squad nicely.
