Honestly why are you here? You obviously stopped supporting the club a long time ago... What would you do differently exactly? I mean with your years of Rugby League CEO experience you do obviously know better than everyone else so you would have the entire Australian side playing for you under the salary cap but otherwise what changes?

Settle down there sonny boy .. take a deep breath, reach up for the sky, straighten your spine and then exhale bringing your arms down by your side

Geez ya can't saying anything without some bugger having a go LOL

Good game by the boys, was hot as hell up here today...

Still looking a bit rusty but everyone is getting their feet back pretty quick... Croker is having a blinder so far, his defence and attack have improved out of sight and his goal kicking has been amazing!

Looks like Robinson has lost his wing spot too.... At least if Wighton can back that up next week!

Very warm especially during the TC game.

The boys played well , we could do better but it was still a good performance and a good quality game.

Welcome to FG Wighton , keep playing like that and the spots yours forever how long you want.

Great game from Shillo and White

I like how safe we under the high ball , Dugan and Fergo never looked like dropping one.

Would have liked Croker to pass a bit more to Wighton, he barely saw any ball in attack.
Looks really good in the air, the hangtime he is getting is top shelf.

Short kicking game still looks to be a problem, but if we find other ways of scoring that isn't an issue.

The kid has a lot of confidence and size. I think we have seen the last of Robinson and have found our next big thing in Wighton.

His defence was amazing.

Yeah I think Reece will struggle to get back. I laugh when I consider that the Titan's would have thought that Wighton was a weak point.

Good win beyond a few simple errors. I'm still thinking that Waddells service is a bit slow. And papalli 's hit was huge, it's exciting seeing his growth. To have a back row of Thompson, papalli and fensom is very exciting for the future.

Completely agree on Waddell. Far too slow for an NRL hooker. I'd prefer Butt's any day of the week. He is better out of dummy half and seems to have a handy kicking game. Waddell seems to be a better defender but he's an ordinary dummy half...at best.

I dont mind starting with Waddell but you can see the immediate impact Buttriss makes when he comes on the field. I think this could be a good tactic by Furner to use buttriss at the end of halves.

agreed and its working
the hooker rotation is doing a good job
Waddell is doing his job and buttriss is coming on and having an impact

if it aint broke...

The quality of football that raiders have played the last 2 games is a lot higher then many of the other teams i've watched this weekend. It's really great to see.

our attack looks 10x better than the Dogs who will prob be on top of the table after this round.
