Re: 2024 Round 9 v Sea Eagles: Teams and Previews *Teams p1
I feel like the only valid complaint is Danny Levi’s selection. Because of the short turn around, they are likely to only have the one session so I’m assuming that played a part but my god I want him out of the team. Xavier Savage trained at fullback as recently as this off season and has been quot...

Re: 2024 Round 9 v Sea Eagles: Teams and Previews *Teams p1
Looking at the incident honestly, i'd be furious if a raiders player missed a game for what DCE did in that tackle But i still wish they threw the **** book at him. Agree. But it is also rubbish that some teams appeals actually get heard whilst ours (Horse as an example) just get double downed on. ...

Re: 2024 Round 9 v Sea Eagles: Teams and Previews

Re: 2024 Round 9 v Sea Eagles: Teams and Previews
Watch back the presser after Sunday - it was obvious Rick was going to go like this. After a beating like that, he has gone safe. He goes back to some experience. He knows what Hopoate, Whitehead, Cotric and Guler will give him. First step may be just to stem the bleeding, then we can start worrying...

Re: 2024 Round 9 v Sea Eagles: Teams and Previews
I think it is pretty rough on Weekes the he needs to play half back for us, but our current circumstances require it.

Re: Canberra Raiders make new offer to Eels half Ethan Sanders
If he has signed with us, why would Parra get rid of Sanders now? I expect he is on very minimal money at Parra and he becomes a back up for them who they are now using.
What is in it for Parra to release him early?

Where will the Cowboys be at for this game. Wasn’t the idea as to why we were playing them because they were doing a camp in the region.
If they are working them hard on the camp they might be pretty cooked for Sunday.
