We really need a top shelf hooker for our young spine - imagine unearthing another Josh Hodgson.

Dylan’s Raiders

That’s massive for us - easily their two best players so far this year. Will be massive if we can jag these two upsets heading into the bye - would go a long way to cementing a top 8 spot. It’s weird, the goalposts have shifted. At the start of the year, I didn’t expect us to be a top 8 side (more s...

2025: 1. Chevy Stewart 2. Xavier Savage 3. Seb Kris 4. Matt Timoko 5. Michael Asomua 6. Ethan Strange 7. Ethan Sanders 8. Ata Mariota 9. Jamal Fogarty 10. Joseph Tapine 11. Hudson Young 12. Zac Hosking 13. Morgan Smithies 14. Hohepa Puru 15. Josh Papali’i 16. Trey Mooney 17. Cory Horsburgh

Dylan’s Raiders

His first touch he got a penalty because of good foot work, second touch he got a line break and he hasn’t missed a tackle

LUKE BROOKS JUST TOOK HIS BLOODY HEAD OFF!

Dylan’s Raiders

I also will say about Chevy, he has always seemed to play up an age group and takes 4 to 6 games to get into it. I won’t go back but from memory, he didn’t get his first try or try assist in cup until game 4 and then went on from them. I don’t expect him to have an impact on games for a little while...

Dylan’s Raiders

I’ve been lurking this forum since 2012 and only started posting a couple years back. I consider myself to be… pretty emotional when it comes to the raiders but I must say, some takes on here are all time haha.

Dylan’s Raiders

So we currently have signed for 2025: 1. Chevy Stewart 2. Xavier Savage 3. Seb Kris 4. Matt Timoko 5. Albert Hopoate 6. Ethan Strange 7. Ethan Sanders 8. Josh Papali’i 9. Danny Levi 10. Joseph Tapine 11. Hudson Young 12. Zac Hosking 13. Morgan Smithies 14. Ata Mariota 15. Pasami Saulo 16. Corey Hors...

Dylan’s Raiders

most recent article: "He's come and fronted up and let us know that he'd be moving on," Arthur said. "But he's told me to my face, and his manager has, that he's not asking for a release this year. "It's good. He made an obligation to the team at the start of the year, and that's...

Dylan’s Raiders

Who goal kicks?

Dylan’s Raiders

This also means we have: Stewart signed until 2026 Sanders signed until 2027 Strange signed until 2028 I love that it’s staggered. The tigers made the mistake of signing all their youth (Woods, Teddy, Moses, Brooks) and until the same year and they ended up leaving at the same time. Good roster mana...

Dylan’s Raiders

Brilliant.

Parra shouldn’t feel too bad - Moses and Brown are top shelf in this competition imo.

But my god, a spine of Chevy, Strange and Sanders is very exciting. Seems like they are all good mates too.

Dylan’s Raiders

It will be same as last week, Weekes in for Fog. Would actually love to have whitehead - last week was a good example of why we need senior players to reduce the growing pains. Just sucks that our first choice fullback and halfback are out for large parts of the season. Changes the expectation back ...

Dylan’s Raiders

Unfortunately, it’s time for some growing pains. Cookie is train and trial so ineligible I believe. 1. Chevy Stewart 2. Xavier Savage 3. Seb Kris 4. Matt Timoko 5. Albert Hopoate 6. Kaeo Weekes 7. Ethan Strange 8. Josh Papali’i 9. Danny Levi 10. Joseph Tapine (c) 11. Hudson Young 12. Simi Sasagi 13....

Dylan’s Raiders

Growing pains - as poor as this sounds, I hope we win the second half and save our for and against.

Dylan’s Raiders

Went to this game last year with zero confidence and that was before Tapine was ruled out. Was such a satisfying victory. I have a lot more confidence going into this one - we legitimately look a better team on paper and are arguably playing better footy yet are still 3-1 outsiders. I’m going to thi...

Zac Hosking out for at least 10-12 weeks A decision whether Raiders forward Zac Hosking’s season is over will be determined within the next two weeks. In a fresh development, it can be revealed that at a minimum the outstanding Canberra recruit will miss the next 10 to 12 weeks of the season. The n...

Dylan’s Raiders

Asomua is too raw - I think they timed it well to promote him next year.

Dylan’s Raiders

I’ll also put this out there, if Schiller had no defensive issues, then keep him for the rest of the season on the right wing - don’t care if he leaving at seasons end if he is the best option.

But, with this information, I would have Hopa ahead of him next week.

Fair enough if you have the inside word.

Yep. Provided directly by the DT.

Dylan’s Raiders

I really think/thought one of Morkos or Schiller would become an elite outside back. Hopefully Morkos comes back next year.

Dylan’s Raiders

Yeah I would drop him asap - too many defensive issues that he needs time to develop

Would rather have kept in but with Asomua being promoted, can’t keep them all

Dylan’s Raiders

Trey Mooney just needs more time in first grade. I am surprised by how much Pasami Saulo has improved - this year with Ata playing a lot of second row, I think he has been our third best prop all year. He is also only 25 years of age and last year was his first full season so still plenty of upside....

Dylan’s Raiders

SEN confirming sanders will be going to raiders - all formalities playing out and then there is a chance he will be released.

Again, nothing formally confirmed by the clubs.

Dylan’s Raiders

Every player must provide his incumbent Club with a last right of negotiation for a 10-day period from the date of notice that the player has received an offer from a rival Club, and that offer has been submitted to the NRL, that he is prepared to accept. In order to give effect to this clause: a) t...

Dylan’s Raiders

Same as last week - Sasagi in for Hoskingson. Starling is puzzling… just not effective for us anymore. No way Levi is an 80 minute hooker, there are very few of those in the competition. Would love to give Woolford a go, I don’t think Puru has played enough to slot in for 30 minutes a week tbh - he ...
