Tigerpete said:Hmm, well this thread has lasted way longer than i ever could've imagined. A few observations:
* It would appear that taking away all the ridiculously bias opinion of raiders and tigers fans as to who was the "better" side in 2004, the wests tigers have got the money with the nuetrals. Seems there's a sense that the Tigers played well yet were unlucky and the Raiders were nothing more than a bit of extra baggage in the top 8 in 2004.
* I think those of you who have risen the point that the Tigers find themselves much better placed for 2005 than Canberra is a good point and one i've never realised. While i know the strength of the Tigers and their juniors that were displayed in 2004, it would appear that Canberra are relying on quite a few experienced old heads and untried youngsters athough a few have played a little top grade.
* As to who was the better side in 2004, its in a sense incomparible as both obviously had different draws and different expectations, I know for the Tigers 2004 was sucessful without being a complete sucess, all in all a good foundation built for 2005.
What about Canberra fans? were u really happy with 2004?? If not, then well it's fair to suggest maybe you didnt have the better 2004.

How many have Wests or Balmain won? How has your team gone in the semis lately? Ah, you haven't MADE the semis, have you. You people are incredible.

Our club is only 5 years old you can't bring Balmain and Wests into it both clubs are gone in NRL. How well did the Raiders go in their first 5 years? The Raiders are the most boring pitiful club in the league evey other club has something going for it, except the Raiders. They are second choice to the Brumbies down there if you get more excitment watching Union than your local league team then you certainly have problems.

Mwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Seriously though,you Raider fans have to be the most sensitive and one eyed bunch of the lot.Instead of admitting the obvious,that yes your side looks weaker this year,and yes the Tigers went higher(at times)this year,you go on lkike a bunch of turnips and try to explain how this isnt so.Everyone (aside form Raider fans)can see this as plain as day.Look at the polls,you guys got hammered.
And no,there isnt a CONSPIRACY against the Raiders,the big meanie Sydney clubs arent out to GET you,the ARL isnt biased...etc,etc.Polls werent made specifically to show up the Raiders.
Time to get a good hard grip.....
:shock: :shock: :shock:
