I've been saying that Manly will go well until one of Tommy's hamstrings explodes. And here we are.

Re: Canberra Raiders back NRL call to eliminate disrespect towards match officials

I'm at peace with the onfield ref making mistakes, they are human. I'm fine with the Bunker going with the onfield decision when it's probably wrong but not conclusive. I can't handle the bunker making clearly wrong decisions. They have all the time in the world, multiple angles and still somehow co...

Re: Raiders player signing speculation 2024

I got accosted by two Broncos fans at work last Monday after our dismal turn out against Cronulla. I gently reminded them that the Raiders haven't one the spoon since their inaugural year 42 years ago and enquired if they recall the last time that the Broncos won it.

Re: 2024 Round 9 v Sea Eagles: Game Day

It was noticeable when Starling and Mooney came on how our defensive line compressed and our line speed improved. Weird game. Didn't look like Manly wanted to win it in the second half. They're getting run down, and then overtaken and DCE and Tommy didn’t even really attempt to do anything about it...
