'14 // R1 // Sat // Cowboys 28-22 Raiders // 1300SMILES

[Spot On]

Who ever plays in the halves for Canberra can't be worse than what they have the past couple of years can it?

 

[Phil McGrawhan]

We looked good in TBar trial.
saying that,it was only a trial .
& the fact that JT seems top put in 110% in every game (trial or Reg season)then I am hopeful without getting carried away.

Morgan was absolutely Brilliant at FB .
Very comfortable under the Bomb,& even when smashed by 3 Titans ,he somehow busted free made 25 Mtrs..
Hope he can continue that into the season.

[Vic Mackey]

I think the fact that the players have admitted they weren't quite doing everything at their best in terms of their preparation in recent seasons and that green has turned the place upside down from just about every angle. For a side that has had the roster but not the right mentality to succeed a total shake up in the mentality could make for a great season

Whilst you have every right to be excited, every team says that every Pre season...especially after a change of coaches.

good ol skeepe, tilse to run off the field, rip one of the chairs out of the stadium and smash it across tamous face and not get penalized but the calls will still be all going our way

I would love Tilse to finally show that sort of aggression.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Campese and Wighton in the halves.

TLL only going to miss round 1 after scan results.

I should have said "playing in halves" instead, meant wighton at 6 or was still a chance of Cornish playing

from what ive read wighton has played juniors at 5/8 but rookie at nrl level there

 

[butchmcdick]

I would love Tilse to finally show that sort of aggression.

They could play every game at a university hall of residence

Raiders are still saying 3-5 weeks.

Bugger.

:lol::lol::lol:

reminds me of old paul mchnicolas that played for us, 2m tall and couldn't break the line to save himself

 

[legend]

Cowboys 36-12. Not enough grunt up front and apart from the backrow, the rest of the side looks average.

Geez that looks even weaker than last season :?

I'll wait for the Cowboys list but that doesn't look promising for Canberra.

 

[legend]

Yep. A lot of inexperience and aging players named in that side. Cowboys forward pack will run riot IMO.

We lost Dugan, Ferguson and Thompson from last season plus Shillington and TLL are injured....so yeah it's gonna look pretty weak.
