Haha. Im actually going to treat you seriously for a second. The journo basically asks him about his confidence in his team... what do you atually want him to say?
Honestly, what should he say there? "Not very confident, we're not as good as they and we probably cant beat em... guess we'll call it quits now"
His team is in 3rd place on the ladder, this raiders team could beat any team in the league on their day. Why shouldnt he beleive they can win the comp?
Jesus wept.
No, stick that into you.Stick that into ya!
Richard “Sticky” Stuart should hold his head high. The Canberra Raiders nearly got the job done despite some contentious decisions.
We lost a game by 4 points in which 8 points were scored directly off an intercept by a player offside.
Nothing about today's loss had anything to do with anything we did after the melbourne game haha
Ricky is so hot right now that he has to do his presser with the fire alarm on.
Ricky should be more worried about the team photos and laps of honour after the Melbourne game, than anything that happened vs Manly.
Raiders played a GF last weekend .
The loss today was the one they needed, similar to the Manly loss to the Warriors.
Raiders will bounce back hard next weekend.
If your happy with your team losing today after carrying on like it was a GF win last week, then good luck to you.
Me personally, I would have been damn worried if my team celebrated like that when we beat Melbourne a couple of weeks ago, but each to their own.
Im not happy or not happy. It played no role in what happened today haha
Wait... are you saying the reason the eagles won today was because the Raiders got complacent and were feeling their oates a bit and thus put in a performance well below their best?
Or plainly stated, the better team lost a game they should have won and probably will win next time when the stakes a higher?
Cool. Sure. Ill take that.
Wild that you'd down play your own team like that, but you know them better than i. Fascinating insight.
Yeah carrying on like they won the GF last week is under the radar stuffThey had numerous flat spots yesterday. Often happens after a win vs Melbourne, as noted in the game day thread after your Melb victory, and also in the Game day thread before the Manly game.
Yeah, I dont think the team photos thing helped them at all. Like I said, I would have been most worried if DCE let Manly do that.
It was Round 22, not the GF.
Under the radar, baby.
Yeah carrying on like they won the GF last week is under the radar stuff
It's a little "no" as I'm flying under the radar.Do you understand the concept of answering a 3 paragraph post with another 3 paragraph post, and how the 1st paragraph quoted corellates with the 1st paragraph response.
Im guessing the answer is a big "no".
