didnt the raiders give the roosters a floogging, to think i thought they were gonna get the wooden spoon.

in my oppinion elliot would have to be the best coach coach going round 4 the way he has got that bunch of nobodys performing.

tell you one thing i hope clinton is in the qls side cause im not very confident next week thats for sure

Oh, not this again...

We may not have flogged the Chooks, but we beat them. And some very questionable calls helped them get back into the match.

On the face of it, yes - the Raiders SHOULD beat us. But then, we SHOULD have beaten the Cowboys. And the Storm. And the Panthers...Twice...

And that's not to mention St George and Manly...add those wins and we are in the running for the minor premiership again...Go us...

Just because they don't get much press (not being in Sydney) doesn't make them nobody's...

Do you mean they are all set to re-sign with the Raiders.

Elliott seems to be a fantastic coach, i wish we had gone for him and Collins instead of Hagan and Fairliegh. He seems to get the best out of alot of young country guys, which is something that would have fitted well in our system. But what can you do....

Exactly!
Every team has off and on days, plus there are also referring decisions that come into play and luck of the way the ball bounces along with with weather.

we might get lapped but the boys must have their thoughts on finishing strongly and turning it around!

its gonna be a hard game to win

we haven't won there since 2000 and this probably the toughest Canberra side in years. everything is against us without our origin players.

No idea matey, maybe PM MITS, he is part of the supporter club, he may be able to help you.
I thought I saw something on the website months ago about the buses, but I think they are doing an overnight and they are quite expensive

Sorry Hellsy

Yep the cost of the bus is $180.00 not including your match ticket.

I'd rather drive down with some mates and split the petrol bill between us
