Croker is terrible defensively at the moment, but when I see him I think to myself that there's nothing a good coach couldn't fix/drill into him to get him up to at least NRL standard for a centre.

It's not a problem that should be tried to fix during NRL games though. He needs to be dropped to Mounties where he can get confidence in working out his defensive flaws without the added pressure of contributing heavily to the Raider's losses. It will kill the kid's career.

Croker getting bathed by Beau Ryan was just gold.

The Raiders were just terrible. BUT in saying that I am very pleased with WT performance. Like Ink mentioned it was an actual 80 minute performance and it was pretty much all structured wet weather football for us which we have pretty much never done.

Big game next week against the Storm without origin players from either side.

Really good move to play Ioseffa tonight to give him that block of on field time with the squad before next week

Oh and for the first time I can remember I was told by people there that WT fans probably shaded Raiders fans for attendance

It's hard to believe that Canberra ran 13-odd linebreaks past us at Campbelltown only a few months ago. The score in that game was 30-18 but it should've been much more.

Last night was one of the first 80 min performances I can remember from the Tigers in recent history. For the Raiders it must've been one of their worst. You have to feel for their fans turning up in the rain to witness that crap.

Hey Dragons fans, f**k off, this isn't about you.

Furner is a club legend, at some point you'd like to think he'd consider the best interest of the club and its fans.

Not all about us? Do you reckon you could pass that on to RP?

I was there and that wasn't the case but would have seemed like that considering the Raiders fans weren't given a single thing to cheer about.

Ferguson went to the raiders to win a premiership! :lol: goose!

Just when I think I wouldn't have anything to smile about this weekend, along come Sharks fans and their Fergo butt-hurt. :lol:

Sharks fans are the last people who should be mentioning premierships.

Canberra were beyond awful. There a bog awful footy side with a half assed attitude. They will finish 2nd last without a doubt. Last if Parramatta get their act together.

Tigers starting to find a bit of fluency and consistency. They are in the Top 4 sides in the competition without a doubt. However I don't really care about the regular season. They can sleep walk their way into the 8. It's putting in these type of concentrated 80 minute efforts in the finals which will dictate whether they have had a good season or not. They don't have to win the comp, however i don't want to see them exiting the finals because of their own stuff ups like the last 2 years. Signs have been good from Marshall and Farah.
