    2021 RLWC (D) Wk1 - TON 24-18 PNG @ St Helens

    Honestly PNG robbed a bit there. PNG always seem to cop the rough end from the refs. Very obscure but I remember a game 20 or so years ago when PNG came up with a great tactic vs Oz to kick early in the count when coming off their own line- with wingers planned & already flying positioned out...

    2021 RLWC (A) Wk1 - ENG 60-6 SAM @ Newcastle

    I don't know who the wingers you have are who didn't make the team but Mackinson has been good for a long time and Young looked good up against good opposition. He's a prospect.

    2021 RLWC (A) Wk1 - ENG 60-6 SAM @ Newcastle

    G Williams is a good half. Looked dangerous for England when the game was still competitive, in all the ways he did when he played NRL for Raiders. Lively running game, strong enough to offload & hit in a tackle. Decent passing range (Welsby has a really nice vision, another level again)...

    Personalised jersey numbers?

    I don't think so. I'm from Canberra and met Mal a number of times over the decades. He's not got much time for this kind of crap. This is a bloke who ended his own political career mid interview when he realised he'd just be sitting there going through the motions of what he was supposed to...

    Personalised jersey numbers?

    Never heard of it.

    Personalised jersey numbers?

    Is crap like the 20/40, 2 pt field goals and 6 again in IRL rules?

    2021 RLWC (A) Wk1 - ENG 60-6 SAM @ Newcastle

    But Samoa's backs are better than Englands...

    World Cup Squads

    I think they'll just cut teams up on the edges/off an early spread often enough that all the middle has to do is more or less absorb the opposition as much as they can. It's what guys like Martin, Carrigan & Jrbo are there for. We'll get enough yards/breaks from those backs that our forwards...

    Personalised jersey numbers?

    Australia just going to confuse everyone with a pretentious numbering style. Why does the tournament even allow it? Numbers aren't there to feed Australian players ego's, they are there to help fans (and refs) identify them. Why make it confusing for the poor French bloke or kid in Samoa trying...

    Opening game could be a blinder

    Samoa have had good teams on paper before- but failed to deliver. The flow on effect from Tonga taking Test footy dead seriously and believing they can beat the "big" teams may just be that Samoa finally do the same. Can't wait to see it myself. International footy is some of my favourite...

    Blake Austin is a better 5/8 than Anthony Milford & Mitchell Moses

    Slightly less well than when he was at the Raiders in the final months before he left. And that was not good. He'll be a step slower. Everyone will fall for his signature step & dummy again for about a month and then they won't. He certainly won't be any keener for contact in defence than he...

    2022 FW2 SF Fri - Parramatta 40-4 Canberra @ CommBank

    Btw I'm charging you double for pointing out the Raiders have 2x Corey's... But you'll need to contact BigTYm3SportzD4t4 to find out if having an even number of Corey's cancels out your Corey advantage in a cartoon like manner. That's known as a Coreyllation error.

    2022 FW2 SF Fri - Parramatta 40-4 Canberra @ CommBank

    The Corey Index is one of those stats the NRL/Fox don't publish but private data firms sell to clubs for big money.

    2022 FW1 EF Sun - Sydney 14-30 South Sydney @ Allianz

    Those wacky Rorters. You never know what they'll get up to next. Pretty sure Suaali is there just as product placement for some dating show.

    Not their go. Except JWH. Absolutely his go.

    50/50 chance we get another Bali nightclub thrashing machine video though.

    Opinion Is Ricky Stuart the most overrated coach ever?

    People laughed when Ricky said he'd spent his week off sittin on the couch thinkin stuff up. Nekk minit Raiders backline bamboozles Melbourne with a Ronaldo play at a key moment, deliciously defeating the rule benders with a rulebender set move of his own. Bellamy is a good coach, but there's...

    To be fair, you're a much better judge of cock.

    Bellamy manning the torpedoes as we speak.

    2022 W1 EF Sat - Melbourne 20-28 Canberra @ AAMI

    I don't think either team/set of fans is really confident on this one. Raiders have the slight wood on Melbourne in Melbourne compared to anyone else. But we are scarred by 2020 when we got coached, run & executed right off the park in the opening 20.
