Is this the same guy that is currently dragging his club through a salary cap scandal?

Like Tinkler, Koukash will treat the club as his play thing. We need owners that are happy to operate at an arm's length and not be front and centre.

No owner will ever operate a club at arm's length. I agree Koukash is a poor example due to his overzealous approach. It is more his enthusiasm that I like.

Living in Canberra makes it a lot easier for me to jump on the bandwagon. I think we'll turn the corner eventually but not this year and I can't stomach getting too invested in crap

A company like Wests would. To them, owning the club would be more about it being a successful business and not telling the coach who to sign or who runs out on the field each week.

Did I hear right that he got an ankle injury in tonight's game against the Tigers?

What a shame.

Sorry - the sarcasm too dark?

But seriously, I hope Canberra get ridiculously poor value for money for overpaying him for the next 4 years...

He's fine according to the presser
Could have played on but wasn't needed. He's been VERY impressive

The kid left for a massive pay cheque, anyone on here who says they wouldn't do the same is kidding themselves.

Kid could have been in jail - or kicked out of the game - if it wasn't for us.

Integrity is bigger than a paycheque...

Come on.

He won the lotto. He cashed the winning ticket.

The sacrifice is having to play for a competitive side.

I am astounded how the Raiders did it and I am gutted we lost him but for him personally Tapine made the right decision every day of the week.

As for staying because he owes us? Game ain't based on sympathy.

I hope his infected ankle gets treated by Dr. Stupid
