[Walt Flanigan]

Should be a cracker. Will have Cotric and BJ back.

 

[Chief_Chujo]

We are a better team than we were in magic round. A few tries in that game came directly from Williams shoddy defence as well.

Get hyped. We're in this thing up to our earballs.

Should be a cracker. Will have Cotric and BJ back.

I think BJ will be named in the extended squad but would be surprised if he plays. I really want to see BJ vs Mitchell but I think it will have to wait for the finals.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

I'm starting to believe. But not that much.

Roosters by 20.

 

[The Vaulting Violinist]

Roosters by 18 celery cap compliance promises

 

[Tommy Smith]

Undoubtedly match of the season so far.

This will be an epic clash and Rugby League will be the winner.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Lol @ nine picking the other trash over this. Should be a cracker! Picking Roosters by 4 but would love a Green Machine win to really make the season interesting.

 

[Burns]

Weather forecast looks grim. Top of 8 degrees and rain.

 

[typicalfan]

I reckon the Raiders have it in them to beat the Roosters once this year. So by that token the Raiders probably want to save that one win for the finals.

Were the Raiders the last team to beat the Roosters last year?

No. We lost b2b to the Raiders then the Broncos. The Raiders played great then we basically tanked vs the Broncos as we geared up for the finals.

 

[Headless Chook]

We haven’t tasted success in Canberra since 2010. Unfortunately I’m tipping that trend will continue.

Raiders 1 - 12

 

[Valheru]

This has a similar feel to our first game against Newcastle.

We are fat better placed now to handle that occassion than 3 months ago.

Will be very tight.

Good memories.

That was when we were written off by all and sundry

 

[LineBall]

Can’t wait for this one. Hope the Raiders get the win.

Lol @ nine picking the other trash over this.

Raiders had just run 10th for the second year in a row when this decision was made.

Oh goody, looks like another year of sitting in the grandstand, have been down the last two years and both time the weather has looked iffy before the game so have sat in the grandstand , I like sitting in the outer at Canberra but my better half likes the comfort of the grandstand which was fortunate last year with the sleet. Did check the advanced weather for the weekend and while cold Saturday is the predicted rain day and Sunday supposed to be sunny.

 

[Headless Chook]

Horrie, I’m heading out to the game, PM me if you like. We sit in the outer, usually in the away supporters bay.

Wouldn't matter. We finished 2nd in 2016 and nine passed on the Round 2 clash with the Sharks the following year.

Will do if I sit in the outer,. Are there members discount for this game ? Haven’t noticed any discounts the last couple of years.
