The new Laurie Daley

There is perspective. Read comments.
Not sure you know what noob means.
Nothing wrong with positivity and hopeful comparisons.
No reason to knock a teenager. He's a super player.

Re: Trey Mooney inks big extension with Raiders

Papa rest for a week could be a blessing in disguise. Ata and Mooney could do with some more minutes. A little more match fitness for the young guns after low minutes.

Re: Ethan Sanders signs three year deal with Canberra Raiders

Absolute speculation. But if it is an out of the blue signing top tier junior I would have to guess a big 2nd rower like we've been chasing for years

Re: Ethan Sanders signs three year deal with Canberra Raiders

Interesting to hear Stuart mention multiple young recruits will be announced in coming weeks... He could be referring to Mooney and Sanders
Maybe another junior recruit? Food for thought

Re: 'We definitely 1 million per cent want to keep Trey': Raiders keen for Mooney to stay

I also note the club has continued to demonstrate a very sound strategy to recruitment and retention. There were a fair few of us who thought Trey wasn’t being prioritised but it was clearly in the works. We’ve retained all the right players (I like Schiller but can handle letting him go) and signe...

Re: Canberra Raiders coach Ricky Stuart set to sign four-year contract extension

Dumb question - I think it's the most relevant question when you sack someone - do you have someone better to replace them with? If the answer is no, why change? To follow suit of other cellar dwelling clubs. Its the easiest and laziest argument in the book to blame coaches. It's a simple, logical ...

I don't understand the negativity.. if Ricky were to quit tomorrow we would end up with someone like Holbrook or Demetriou and be staring down the barrel of bottom 4 stuff for a decade signing the Joel Edwards of the world.

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2024

I agree.. I think the roosters and Penrith have already got what they want. Roosters also just re signed may and Collins with leniu and Whyte.. A lot of money tied up in in FRF already Penrith will want an experienced prop for a win now. Not another development prop. They have 10 of them. Tigers and...

Re: 'We definitely 1 million per cent want to keep Trey': Raiders keen for Mooney to stay

I'm confused on the Hors critics.. Poor against sharks (whole team was) but 6 runs for almost 100m and 16 tackles 0 missed against Parramatta. 2nd game back I was pretty happy to see that He's played 60 minutes of football in 7 months and people saying his career is in jeopardy. The suspension was a...

Re: 'We definitely 1 million per cent want to keep Trey': Raiders keen for Mooney to stay

I think the club would have offered 1st grade money and a good deal. I can't remember a time we've under cut a players value. And they could out bid any other bids if necessary to a fair point..
It will all come down to being cemented in first grade

Re: 'We definitely 1 million per cent want to keep Trey': Raiders keen for Mooney to stay

From Treys comments earlier in the year it seemed as though the only sticking point was playing first grade.. hopefully he cements the spot and re signs We are generally good with offers like this in terms of paying a fair price the players are happy with. If someone wants to pay 1 million re Shanno...

So by what GE is saying with the new rules, If everything goes as is expected we can assume he will be announced by the end of April? If he decides to actually sign with us, perhaps He probably won't because Ricky has lost the dressing room and we don't develop young players... As Ricky approaches ...
