    Rnd 21 vs Knights

    Remember when teams used to say that they hated playing in Canberra on a cold Saturday night in winter? The cold and slippery conditions used to suit us. So what do we do? We apparently buckle, don't want to upset the opposition, and now play only on a Sunday afternoon. I know it probably has to...

    Just when you thought Furner shrugged off his stupidity... Tongue named at No.9

    It worked last week. So I say leave it for now. We have a tendency to start to change things when they're working right. So just go with it for the moment. I think, when Waddell is back, we should start with him. He's a much better starting 9 than coming off the bench. Have Buttriss on the...

    Shaun Berrigan

    According to the list of off contract players in the Sun Herald, Shaun Berrigan is off contract from his ESL club. He was a pretty handy No.9 when he was at the Broncos, although, that was 3 or 4 years ago. I don't know what his form in the UK has been like, but since there aren't many...

    raiders vs Rooters

    How much say do the players have in the on field structure and plays? Surely they can say that, hey, THIS is what was working for us in 2008, lets go and try playing like that! The talent is there. Most of the players are the same, if not better, than what we had then. Or does Furner tell them...

    raiders vs Rooters

    I said after the game against the Dragons that, even though we won, our inability to score points was a BIG problem ... and pretty much got chased out of this forum by a mob with flaming torches and pitch-forks. Teams know they only have to score 18-20 points, and we're as good as done. We...

    Dropped Points

    Yes. I actualy do think that not scoring 30+ points in a game is an issue. It was a good win on Sunday, don't get wrong, and I'm proud of the team in ANY win ... but it also shows that we can't put teams away. We get to 22-24 points, and seem to fall into a hole in attack. 24 points isn't that...

    Kurt Gidley

    Gidley just looks so dis-interested. Maybe he doesn't fit Bellemey's coaching style? Maybe it's an attitude problem? Whatever reason, he's not up to Origin level as a player and fullback, let alone as captain. Sorry Newcastle, just because he's the skipper of your NRL team, doesn't mean he has...

    Dropped Points

    Man. After todays win, if we'd held onto the leads we had against the Tigers and Rabbitohs, we'd now be on 14 points. In 3rd-5th spot (depending on points dif). And with the bye again next week, we'd jump to 16 points! Still. We're playing pretty crap. Another game where we didn't score over...

    If he leaves, I will murder someone.

    We'll have to start winning more games to keep him. Turning our half-time leads into convincing victories. Wouldn't be suprised if he isn't holding out to see who, if anyone, we sign. Especially in the 7 and 9. And maybe a coach too ... It's unfortunate I guess, but players want to go to...

    Why do ch9 news show AFL before RL? So much for loyalty.

    Probably because if they don't show AFL first, the AFL ring them and threaten to take away their free tickets and box and all the other free stuff they fling out for preferential media coverage.

    Players we should target

    Maybe we should have a go at the halfback at the Warriors. Maloney? Dunno what his contract situation is though. He's young, but he looks better than what we've got right now. Or how about Porter from the Sharks? But I don't think we'll lure any player away from a Sydney team. As for a No.9. I...

    Carney may knock Campo from Country

    It's true. He probably won't make the Country Origin side. Guess it all depends on if Gidley gets into the Test team, or if not, where they want to play him for Country. Still, I'd like to see a Campese/Carney combo!

    Squad for first trial

    I'm really starting to feel sorry for Brett Kelly now. From the game against the Eels last year at Parramatta, it just looked like he had no confidence, and that none of the other players had any confidence in him either. But I'm sure when he gets selected in 1st Grade that he tries his best...
