We also haven't actually played the Roosters in Sydney for 4 years.

Though I'm really surprised we couldn't knock off the Roosters with all those stars like Glen Buttris and Josh Mcrone in our spine.

Yeah i dont know how much of that is not beating the roosters or simply not being able to beat f**king anyone!

Can you believe there are raidera fans who at a certain forum demand we execute the entire side after a loss but in particular blame hodgson.

Not even after a loss really, maybe just one attacking set that they didnt like.

Aint no glenny b getting us to a grand final

Canberra Woman Diagnosed With The Viking Clap After Meeting Tattooed Englishman At Mooseheads

CLANCY OVERELL | Editor | CONTACT

The ACT medical community have released a statement today warning the community of a potential outbreak in the Viking Clap.

New guidelines for the treatment of Mooseheads Transmitted Infections (MTIs) have been issued in response to the growing threat of antibiotic resistance to the Viking Clap.

As the Canberra Raiders go through to the Grand Final after season that has lasted months longer than usual, Canberrans face an increased likelihood of being exposed to an MTI.

It is estimated that during the 2019 season alone, 1 million Canberra residents, mostly women, may have contracted the Viking Clap. These numbers are expected to only grow if The Milk win the Premiership against the Sydney Roosters this weekend.

ACT-based public servant, Ainslie Cooyong (22) has been identified as one of the early cases, after receiving a diagnosis earlier this year during the trial matches.

Ainslie has since been treated for the Viking Clap, and says she’ll think twice next time before going home with a heavily tattooed Yorkshireman with a body that looks like its been carved out of ice.

“They are so hot though aha” she says.

One local doctor says this attitude towards rooting Raiders is quite common, with many locals girls viewing it as a badge of honour, but worries the outbreak may get out of control if the Milk bring home the silverware this weekend.

“There’s a recurring theme” says Dr Verity Lane, spokeswoman for the CHO (Canberra Health Organisation)

“For one, Moosheads”

“A lot of our patients claims to have made friends with a neckless Englishman or a sexy Islander boy on the D-floor at around 2AM when they start playing Kendrick”

“I only advice would be, please make sure you wear a beanie to these Home Games”

Don’t know why we’re bothering, if you listen to the clowns on that NRL.com show we’re going to get blown off the park, are just an honest bunch of toilers that rely on niggle to put teams off their game, have no structure and should just be thankful that we’ve even made it this far.

Hopefully we're not buying the underdog bs either

Don't worry, you have Ben "raider" Cummins named in your run on 15.

plenty have tasted his sweet nectar and I’m jealous of them all

You must be one of the few opposition fans to like them

I am another one. They have a great team that can be really entertaining to watch. Teddy, Keary, Mitchell and Crichton are all entertaining superstars of our game.

Cronk not so much on the excitement factor but massive respect for his effort! chasing kicks, recovering in defence to save tries, supporting a line break or offload.

Next season will likely see Flanagan slot straight in with a few other big signings and they will turn it on again.

Canberra are a genuine chance of winning this despite what some people are saying. They haven't lucked their way to the grand final or anything. If you manage to win finals games with 12 men on the field and win away in Melbourne in the dying minutes whilst having one of your most damaging players off the field for a period of it you deserve to be in the big one.

They haven't scored over 20 points and won since round 22 which could work badly against them considering they are playing a team with great attack and defence

I really like the roosters too tbh. Also 90 percent of league unlimited is @adamkungl alts so he keeps things ticking over

If the broncos were as well run they would win the comp every year. I’m not jealous of them, I mean they have some advantages but a lot of them are well won by good business connections. Nothing stopping other clubs doing that. Small market teams have a disadvantage but Sydney teams are all in competition with each other too. It’s the broncos that have by far the biggest advantages and because they suck at identifying talent their best spine player is fatty Milford who they had to poach back from us in the first place because they didn’t identify him

Our best player papalii played in South east Queensland too
