I think the worst part about the Raiders commute will be the return journey.

No road trip goes well when there’s a bus full of players “hurtin”
We tow this behind the bus for those situations

I always hear Raiders fans moaning about Jack's kicking... but he has less kick errors this season than Cleary, DCE or Moses, despite having played 2 or 3 more games this season than any of them (injury, suspension etc). It's like we think players at other clubs never make an error.
I highly doubt most Raiders fans watch other teams play mate ;)

I pray to Allah that the Raiders make it here alive. Such is the difficulty of their journey on the motorway.

They didn't give Sticky a plane this time?

Surprising as he bitched and moaned all week last time he had to go to Sydney until they gave him one.

That was on the back of a 5 day turn around and grand final rematch in which the better team won in the end.

Any moron can see there is a huge difference between racking up 13000km in travel compared to the panthers 2300km.

$BW caught the bus down & is living in a caravan apparently.

Sitting down for a couple of hours is real adversity

Surely catching is a plane takes longer

A 5 day turn around, god forbid!!! Is there nothing the Raiders won't sook about?

And who said the better team didn't win?

They considered a plane, but opted for the bullock cart this week. They used the funds for padded toilet seats & slung a bit of cash to Nathan's TicTok girls to work as wipers at the academy to save the Panthers players from any extra exertion this week. They are also working on the logistics involved to drag Bankwest, Suncorp & the new SFS to Mulgoa road so we dont have to travel in the future.

Didn't the Roosters ask for their match to be delayed so they wouldn't have a five day turn around when they were up against the eels and their game was going to be played in their home city.

The 5 day turn around is not as big an issue under normal circumstances when they can travel up the day before so that they can prepare for the game however, the five day turn around with travel up and back on game day is a massive disadvantage.

You mean the one where our scheduled game was delayed from a Sunday arvo to a Monday night? They asked, were denied and got on with things.

We also had a 5 day turn around this week. I note the raiders only have 1 all season which they sooked all week about.

It's a 2.5 hour drive, how much of a disadvantage could it possibly be?

The only chance the Raiders have of winning this one is if it’s played in pouring rain.

If it’s a dry track Panthers to win by a sizeable margin.
Apparently, the forecast for Penrith tomorrow is not as wet as the coast. Just a bit of rain for the morning.
