Re: Through green eyes 2024

I love Chicka in the '88 vid just burning half a team with 20m headstarts on him and zooming away past them. That video also reminds us how Gary Belcher was such a graceful runner, looked like he put no effort in to glide and swerve his way over the grass. How fast a young Laurie Daley was. And wha...

Re: A new Canberra Stadium

A new stadium by mid 2030's? Not even sure the current stadium will last that long... it's on its last legs. I would put the current Canberra Stadium above Penrith, Sharks, Manly, Leichhardt, Campbelltown, both Win stadiums, Redcliffe, Newcastle BUT for safety and comfort of spectators and to preve...

The tone of the article was not entirely serious, but as it turns out, the last pre election commitments for a new stadium turned out to have as much substance.

Honestly hooker is by far our worst position. We are 17th in the NRL for hooker quality, even some clubs depth hooker is better than our FG hooker. Statistically, not even 17th. Quite a number of other clubs have two hookers who are better. Granted, some clubs have starting hookers in the same ball...

So listening to what Riccio actually said, he's saying the Raiders feel they have done enough to express interest, and if Fifita is interested in a move, then they'd be prepared to talk. But it is in Fifita's hands. And virtually all the mail is Fifita wants to stay on the Gold Coast.
