Round 22 vs Rickyless Raiders

[justadragon]

Well, we did go from 2000-2013 without winning in Canberra. Hoodoo broken in 2014.

We also have an abysmal record in Melbourne, but that should've also have been broken in 2014 except for the infamous try after the final whistle.

Yes who could forget the Melbourne one, but anyway lets hope they show some pride in the jumper this weekend.

No Cotric and probably no Tapine and Savage. Love that for Saints. Regardless you gotta keep swinging until we mathematically can’t get there.

Never say die until the fat lady sings. There have been a lot of fat ladies sing for us the past 10 years hahaha!

Tapine will be a big loss, so too the others but we played the Broncs without many of their goodies playing and we get beaten. We have a chance but the Raiders will be looking at avenging their loss against us in the game just a few games ago.

Our for an against is atrocious compared to the other teams vying for the 8th spot. Lots need to go our way for us to make it so I think that we are done for this year and cannon fodder even if we do make it.

Is it too late to sign Jaeman Salmon for this week's game?

 

[slippery5]

hope we beat them and have one their players kicked in the nuts

SHHH Griffin's likely to bring back another dinosaur named Latimore.

 

[JohnnoMcJohnno]

Ricky Stuart likely to be banned from attending this game. That will probably help the Raiders more than us.

I heard the Salmons were seeing pink over Ricky's comments

Can anyone explain to me why a journalist has to break the news of Ricky's 1 match suspension on NRL 360. What on earth does Andrew Abdo do? The NRL (Abdo) should be announcing such news - not leaking it to journalists!

It seems the NRL Integrity Unit might be lacking in integrity.

I hope Craig Young has had a conversation with hook like this " OK mate just before you send out the team selections can I just have a quick look at it thanks ? "

Craig Young? Overseeing selections and coaching matters?

Young was our coach from 1989-1990. Let's just say as a coach, he was a fantastic player. Indeed, I would say his performance as a board member is probably better than coaching stint!

Just my opinion I think Young is , and has been a problem within the club ..... Id like to see a complete wipe of the board including snotty nosed Andrew Gordon gone with him ...... Need ouside influence , but cant see it happening ......

You are probably right. A clean out at board level, with professionals who know how to run a business, and you will probably see a professionalism within the club in no time.

Unfortunately in this case, the man who runs the store owns the store !!!

Why are we still talking about games as though they matter?

Can’t we just skip early to the off season so that we can embrace the true purpose of the forum?

Calling each other merkins.

Even Craig would know that playing Moga, McCulloch, Woods & Bird in the backs is pretty dumb now that we are not making the 8.

 

[merahputih]

I'm bracing myself for the sight of JDB running out in the No7 jumper.

 

[Dragon David]

Looks like Cody Ramsey will be fit enough and will be named in the 17 to play the Raiders on Sunday. If he is fit, Hook should slot him in at full back and bring Mbye back to the bench. I wonder if Sloan will be in the 17?

 

[JamesRustle]

No. Too much pace.
