Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
My first lineup he wasn't there at all. So really I'm a good boy.
Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
4 years!
Ok so it's (likely) BJ for one year at centre and Scott at wing or #14.
I'm not convinced yet he's better than Simo so I hope he ha to earn it.

Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
I can't see a guy like Scott coming (or being signed) to be a 14 so either BJ is leaving and we haven't heard about it yet or Scott will be getting a crack at wing.
Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
There’s no way Scott is a better winger than Simonsson
well, I guess you could say that I'm buy curious.
Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
I agree. Simonsson and cotric will be our starting wingers. Make no mistake about it. For the record, i reckon bj will leave otherwise Scott will be coming of the bench until he finds so fitness (remembering that he is currently injured)

Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
I dont base this on any inside information or anything but reading the tea leaves as i see them... and i could easily be wrong...
but i dont think this guy is coming to play wing, or 14. or play for mounties. He's coming here to be our long term centre. A beej move feels like a forgone conclusion... and that's just the way i like it, Mark.

Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
Is this a new injury after he played against the roosters in week 3 of the finals?
Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
I'd be really sad to see BJ leave. The strut, the swagger, the Godzilla like charges, the way he always reminded me somehow of a giant naughty 5 year old who just liked pushing other kids over...
Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
I could cry if Leilua leaves. Rapana was upsetting but the Leilua attack highlight reel is probably better than anyone bar maybe Campese since the golden days.
well, I guess you could say that I'm buy curious.

Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
Yeah, it will be remarkable if Leilua sees our his contract. At the end of the day it appears his manager was looking for an upgrade and an extension a year out, so the club had to do something to be on the front foot. A 4 year deal for Scott indicates they also see Cotric on the wing long term.
Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
From all reports cotric rathers the wing anyway

BJ certainly bought an X factor to our team that could disrupt organised opposition defences.

Yeah, there aren't too many players like Leilua who can make something out of nothing. Unbelievable force when he's fit and focussed.

Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
Curtis Scott’s a talented centre, I think he’s better than Lomax at this stage. But neither are in the ball park of Joey. It would be an enormous loss, and one I’m not sure we can afford.
I’m still backing this whole premiership window thing and given the Roosters and Storm both look like they may be presenting lesser teams in 2020, it makes little sense for us to punt BJ and not go all in next season.

Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
The betting market doesn't see us in the top two teams in 2020... ranking third at present. Not in a premiership window according to them! Roosters and Storm are favourites.yeh raiders wrote: ↑November 28, 2019, 11:18 pm Curtis Scott’s a talented centre, I think he’s better than Lomax at this stage.

Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
I think BJ's close to the top of the curve and the best teams have a knack of releasing good players at exactly that point.
Scott for BJ suggests even more focus on a defensive and conservative game plan. And a winning one.

Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
Im not trading bj for any centre in the world. If we have signed scott for 4 years then he can start off as our 14. Because of the 4 years hes not in a position where contracts are a concern for him and we can play the long game.

And I’m ok with the clubs decision, in fact I applaud them for keeping the squad young and fresh.
Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
This, hold on to leilua for one more year, let him go when his contract is done.
Leilua is the kind of players that could go epic on a contract year to.
Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
It pains me to say it cause ive been an avid supporter of bj since his time at the knights, but i agree with this sentiment. I dont want to see him go but talk that it would drastically move the needle southward are off the mark. Lets not forget that he missed 80% of the season last year. This team was just as great without him last year at least

Re: Curtis Scott reportedly agrees to terms to join Canberra Raiders
OFFICIAL: Curtis Scott signs with the Canberra Raiders on a four year deal
The Canberra Raiders can confirm Melbourne Storm centre Curtis Scott has agreed to a four-year deal with the club commencing 2020.
Scott, 22, has been granted a release from the final two years of his contract with the Storm and will now take up the new deal with the Raiders which will see him with the club until the end of the 2023 season.
A dynamic ball running centre, Scott has scored 18 tries in his 48 appearances for the Storm and joins the Raiders with an opportunity to further establish himself as one of the games rising stars.
Raiders NRL Recruitment and High-Performance Director Peter Mulholland said the signing of Scott was very exciting for the club, with his potential and experience at such a young age making him a very valuable acquisition.
“Curtis is a player we believe has a very big future in the game and we’re thrilled to have him join us for the next four seasons,” Mulholland said. “At just 22 he’s already been able to play almost 50 NRL games and he’s an exciting talent who will give our squad a player who is hungry to further his development and become an even better player.”
Scott will commence training with the club early December.

Re: Curtis Scott signs with Canberra Raiders to end 2023
Finally it’s confirmed, hope we don’t lose Leilua.

Re: Curtis Scott signs with Canberra Raiders to end 2023
According to Paul Crawley today, Leilua has no intention of seeking an early release.
Re: Curtis Scott signs with Canberra Raiders to end 2023
P mull said we had cap room to keep both for 2020 and i hope thats the truth. Outstanding squad if this is how we stay for 2020

Yeah if that's its the case that we can keep both, then this is brilliant work by the club
