    2013 Raiders?

    My thinking is the 2013 team should look something like this: 1. Dugan 2. Earl 3. Croker 4. Wighton 5. Ferguson 6. Campese 7. Williams 8. Shillington 9. McIllwrick (or we buy a hooker from another club. John Morris could be an option) 10. White 11. Thompson 12. Papalii 13. Fensom 14...

    Rnd 18 vs Storm

    When is Furer going to realise the team looks a lot better when McIllwrick is on the field and stop only giving him the 10 minutes either side of half time. I cant understand it given that he is happy to give the young guys a go in almost any other position but he continues to use Waddell even...

    Signings

    There is a Canberra Times article today saying that we are looking to talk to Tim Moltzen if his talks with the Tigers dont go too well. It also goes on to say that we are interested in Tom Humble depending on Berrigans retirement plans as well as Kurt Baptiste (Broncos) and Nathan Peats...

    Outside Backs

    Massey is hopeless. If he is re-signed they are kidding themselves. Hodge looked the goods in under 20s but seems to have struggled with the move from fullback. We are in desperate need of some depth in the centres to put pressure on croker although he looked better defending 2 in from the wing...

    Outside Backs

    It has been said plenty of times that we are short of quality outside backs. That is the reason that we signed Berrigan but have been forced to use him at hooker to cover the shortfall of quality hookers. Starts to sound like we have a shortfall of qulaity in most positions! The Knights are...

    How much longer will the Raiders endure with David Furner

    The calls for Furner to be sacked last year i thought were a little premature as the team was struggling without Campo. But considering the review they had which was supposed to provide some support to start moving the team in the right direction. I personally think our defence has gotten worse...

    Ryan Cross

    After reading the story about Ryan Cross in todays telegraph im thinking it could be a good idea for the raiders to look at him. He is a proven performer and is a sizeable athlete. They need to be looking to get Joel Thompson out of the centres and into the 2nd row as his edge defence has been...

    Tongue Retires

    I just received an email saying a press conference is being held today for Tonguey to announce his retirement. Although it is a sad day to see a clubman such as him retire it is not something that hasnt been on the cards. With the club resigning Buttriss after saying that he wouldnt be resigned...

    Raiders vs Sharks

    I think we may see Mataora replacing TLL. He travelled as 18th man for the roosters game and will be at the club next year unlike Miller. I would much rather be giving the young guys that have got us to this position a go than playing MIller who has been out of form this year and is at long odds...

    Recruitment

    Wes Naiqama could be an option as he is off contract and playing well for the knights at centre. Although he has done nothing for the last 2 years for them. Probably injury related as much as anything but might only have a go when his contract is up.

    Recruitment

    I just read the following article in the Canberra Times Moon sizes up move to Raiders BY LEE GASKIN 02 Jun, 2011 08:49 AM Off-contract Warriors utility Joel Moon is open to an offer from the Canberra Raiders, but his manager admits centre isn't his favoured position. Moon has been touted as...

    Champion, Lowe or Crocker?

    With all the fuss over Greg Inglis going to Souths and them having to shed players it seems like the media has forgetten the whole Joel Monaghan saga and that it would have created plenty of room in the cap for us. What are everyones thoughts on the possibility of us signing any of the...

    Why Furner's time is up

    Furner should go because Ricky Stuart is available! Ricky is passionate about the Raiders and would at least bring a winning mentality. The guys is a born winner and has done some great stuff with a small budget at the Sharks particularly in '08. What he did with that list was phenomenal but it...

    Halfback

    Can someone please tell me why we are not even trying to get ourselves a good halfback? It is obviously the position in which we are lacking the most but we dont want to chase anyone. The bulldogs are after Kris Keating to replace Kimmorley and others are chasing these good young halves. You...

    Alan Tongue Makes All Stars Team!

    There is an article of foxsports.com stating that Tongue has pulled out of the game with a recurrence of his wrist injury. Apparently Wayne Bennett is looking at his replacement options as Dave Taylor and Gareth Ellis have pulled out as well. Should be interesting to see who gets the call up!

    The battle to play raiders half

    What do people think about getting Finchy back to the club? He has signed with Melbourne for one season for crap money and i think we could get him reasonably cheap and might provide the type of half we need. He plays a similar game to Kimmorley. His talk on the field is good and he chases...

    The battle to play raiders half

    Give Matt Smith or Mick Picker a go. Herbert and McCrone have both had ample opportunities and not set the world on fire. Wouldnt surprise me to see Herbert go elsewhere to get shot at playing 5/8. He looks to me to be a better 5/8 than he is a halfback.

    Wing Spot up for grabs

    There is an article in the SMH stating that Furner was going to give Milne first crack at the vacant wing spot but he wont be available due to his groin injury. He gives a list of options with Michael Brophy, James Stuart, Matt Ward, Brett Kelly and Reece Robinson as options. He has basically...

    Feleti Mateo preparing to leave Parramatta at end of 2010

    He would be a great pick up and considering he is probably best suited as a ball playing lock you would play him there. Tongue is getting towards the end and playing hooker from what it seems and our other lock options are workers as well so his line breaking and ball playing abilities would...

    Josh Dugan

    I have no doubt it would be a priority to extend his contract beyond the end of this year although i heard that he was sent back to the under 20's squad before christmas because of his attitude to training. Apparently either missed a couple or was late or something like that. He has had some...
