You are obviously a loyal supporter mick :clap:

But your status will be really tested with an answer to this question ...

Will you attend the last game against the rabbits even if we have no mathematical chance of making the finals ??

If thats the criteria people use to decide whether they are going to the match I guess pretty much everyone on this forum hasnt been going for the last few weeks because according to them its impossible for canberra to make the 8 :roll:

How could attendance to any game be used to measure a person's status as a fan? It is a silly propostion to come up with. I wont be able to make it to the game against the roosters next weekend, but that does not make me any less of a fan.

say again :?

PS .... I dont think anyone on this forum has stated thats is impossible for the Raiders to make the 8 .... quite silly if they did ... some have stated that it is moderately or highly unlikely, while others have said that it is a foregone conclussion.

Even if we had no chance of making the 8 by round 26 I'm sure plenty of people would turn up anyway, seeings as though it's Muss' last game and all...

Well considering how pretty much everyone on this forum thinks that Canberra are the worst team ever, the players are useless and the coach is the most incompetent person in the world I would merely assume that they dont think we are making the finals, yet when we do and we perform well they will magically go quiet

Your dead right, except they don't stay quiet they use their favourite line "one good performance does not a season make". Which shits me.

I suppose it is mathematically possible for the Raiders to make the 8, given other results went our way, but does anyone seriously think they deserve to be there based on today's performance?

I hope we win against Easts and Souths and all the results go our way... but I very much doubt we are even in the same league as the Roosters.... and if we did scrape the 8, we would go out backwards instantly IMO.

We have the same players as last year, basically. Shouldn't we be expecting something better?

For those not inclined to be critical, I would be interested to know their views on just why it is that we got soundly beaten three weeks in a row?

There is a difference between being critical and outright bagging.

I thought thats what set us aside from clubs like Manly, Wests and Souths - we were smarter than that, but this season has proven our fans are right down there with them

I am still waiting for analysis of why the club's coaching set up does NOT deserve criticism.

Not a critique of whether the criticisers are justified or simply bagging.

Just one piece of analysis about why we should accept the performances that have been delivered the last 3 weeks. We have seen a lot of analysis of what is wrong and why criticism is deserved.

But one bit of analysis that supports the 'positive' position would be interesting. Not that they work hard and the coach comes up with funny lines after the game.

Analysis.

Why the coaching set up is inspired and doesn't deserve critical comment.

How there is a coaching plan in place, which means we should look through the current results.

Something? Anything?
