We're never going to get a better squad than that of the last 3 years because no one wants to play under Stuart.

Although it was a great ride in 2016 when we made the qualifying final it was probably the worst thing that could happen because it covered up Stuart's flaws.

These are some things to ponder:0

Our football department spends more than any other team.

We have no depth. Apart from Cotric we haven't had a decent junior come through since the myth arrived.

Next year we lose our two big boppers. Although they're not the best props in the world their potential replacements are Gubb, Bateman and Liam Knight.

The only bright spot on the horizon is that Blake Turnstile is leaving.

Now I'm depressed and in the shed hurtin.

The simple truth of the matter is the club doesnt care. They are happy maintaining a property portfolio and plodding along. Its a social club for bored hillbillies. There is very little expectations for success

The canberra press dont even ask any hard questions. The fans have no say. Its literally pointless and you would have to be a f**king witless idiot to even spend one second of your life supporting this disaster of a sporting team.

So ill be back next week to watch them

Austin is just another in the long line of talented halves whose development was stifled by Stuart’s coaching style
Losing him is not a good thing for the raiders

The reality is Ricky stuart coached teams have made the finals twice in his past 12 years of his coaching. Dating back to the 2004 GF when fittler retired.

Didn't coach at clubland in 2011-12.

Most teams in any sport across the world would struggle to justify keeping coach who makes the finals once every 6 years i would have thought

Jesus.

It's going to take the 5 upcoming wooden spoons Trent will collect to match that finals strike rate.

I’m sure Dave will be quick to remind Donny that he got the sack after a more successful 5 seasons than Ricky. That’s the only hope I’ve got of this ending.
