Let's talk about the Canberra Raiders

Have a look at Canberra's record over the past two months. We'd have to be the highest scoring side. We are the only team to put 30+ on the Knights. We put 50 on the Knights, 48 on the Cowboys and all the while I think we'd go close to having the best defensive record over the past two months as well.

I love how you guys are just sooooo excited to make the 8, God Bless Youse All:crazy:
C'mon you just beat the Struggling Broncos, now you have to face the Panthers, in Penrith, who are averaging 40+ pts for the last month :lol:

Actually I was more impressed with winning 8 from 9, and our last 5 in a row. But I won't lie, beating Broncos at Red Hill in front of 40,000 to ensure they didn't make the finals for the first time since 1991 felt pretty good.

You're not in the finals. One of your best players just defected to AFL. Your key 2011 signing already wants to go back home. Your coach-player relationship is apparently ruined. Yep, Brisbane sure is the home of Rugby League. Enjoy the off-season.

Daniel Vidot is criminally underrated. Future rep winger.

He is also the perpetrator of the weakest/doggest act of violence on a football field in some time.

Their fans will blame anyone and everyone if they are bundled out of the finals on Friday night.

Skeepe will complain that the refs were against Canberra in every minute of the 2010 season when they are bundled out of the finals on Friday night.

Their fans have the audacity to call other fans arrogant, but yet they actually believe that they will win the GF (no other fans have claimed this).

The club is based in the most boring city in Australia.

If they manage to win this weekend their fans will start planning GF victory celebrations.

The club will still not be able to attract any decent players without paying overs.

Years of impotence have made them likeable.

Yet to see if the latest results are a return to past glories or just a another dose of viagra bound to disappointingly wear off.

Money is on the latter.

We breed champions, not buy them. But holding on to them is a different story...

Slight correction: the stadium is in Milton, not Red Hill. The Broncos training base is at Red Hill.

Apart from goalkicking I cannot see what Croker provides to a football team. He's worse than Blake Ayshford, and that's saying something.

If there's a more physically freakish team in the NRL I'd like to see them. From 1 to 25 they range from fairytale-villain-weird to just utterly fugly.
