Benmeyer - We are both Raiders fans. Imagine us being kicked out of the comp for 2 years. Losing ALL of our players. ALL OF THEM. From our first grade squad to all our talented juniors in Carney, Zillman, Milne, Campese. Everyone.
How long do you think it takes to pick yourself off the ground? With constant infighting, board bickering and a revolving door for coaches? They are finally starting to show some inprovement. They a good coach. A great CEO and a united board. Give them a go.
Copa - You may be right mate, I've only ever been Gosford and I've never got a feel of what the locals think about supporting League. But even if the rabbitohs relocated and named themselves Central Coast Rabbitohs, they will always be known as Souths to league fans.
Mate, I'm right with you here. Remember, I have Bears blood and I am just as disgruntled as some others on this forum. I picked up the Raiders after 2 years hating the NRL because a mate of mine forced me to. Canberra is My town and the Raiders are my team, but make no mistake, I know what its like to lose my team and see all of my favourite players playing in different colours or forced into retirement.
So while I understand Souths point of view, they should never have been allowed back in for one simple reason. 50,000 people marched in the streets to save them, but 6,000 will show up and actually watch. It's disgusting. They simply don't deserve to be there.
