Lost jersey found at Richmond Club Hotel
Hi all I've found a Raiders jersey outside the Richmond Club Hotel - it's been there all day and at 10pm tonight my girlfriend and I went and picked it up in the hope we could reacquaint the jersey with its owner. It was looking pretty sad on the ground in the street. I'm in Melbourne tonight but dr...

Re: Canberra Raiders review
The 2nd paragraph ruins it, considering not renewing unless the review leads to change in club/coaching structure, what if the review finds that isn't the issue, you're preempting the results without knowing what the real problem is, may as well just have written you won't renew if they don't sack ...

Re: Canberra Raiders review

Really like it - very well done. You've planned out the dialogue a lot better than many I have seen. I just have to say, it's let down by the thin white font that is impossible to read at times.

Re: Through green eyes: Four into two doesn’t go
Through green eyes: Four into two doesn’t go Barely a soul would have thought Sam Williams would have made his NRL debut this season. Barely a soul? How many Raiders fans have barely a soul in thinking he might get a run this season? I didn't realise it was so almost soulless to think this way!

For what it's worth, I agree with Sleek that Harrison's contribution has been overrated - he's been good, but not worth writing home about. Thurling will offer more in the number 12 when he returns. Then Harrison and Plum can tough it out for the bench spot - I'd probably go with Harrison, just by ...
