PaPa ADD

@theSportress @NoShins81 I didnt see it that way , definitely didnt land on the back of the legs. Id have to watch it again. If I care enough 😄

@RaiderADD @NoShins81 Both made contact with the legs.

Rare double hip drop

@theSportress @NoShins81 Thought there was no contact with the legs. They just bent him over backwards

@NoShins81 Both defenders lost their feet and attempted to bring down the defender with weight on the legs. That they were unsuccessful shouldn't stop them being penalised.

@RaidersCanberra Job to do. Get it done

@CJCau Been there. Been told we weren't home when we were . Didn't even ring the doorbell. Doorbell camera caught it. I put a complaint in as it wasn't the 1st time. Have been good since

Item taken to a parcel locker. Not the closest one to my home. At least your callback did call back, that’s something, I suppose, but to be told it now can’t be delivered to me today, so I’ll have to collect it if I need it tomorrow (or indeed before Monday) is sub par.

It’s been a while @auspost but today, I was home, so very surprised to receive an ‘Attempted delivery’ message, a ‘locked gate’ status for a gate that is never locked (and has a doorbell button 10cm away) and a ‘photo’ which may have been taken inside the driver’s pocket.

@NoShins81 @blakeandthepork @GorskiOPork @mattlenevez Need to hold the ball to execute it. If we do that we have them coming out of their end and hopefully they won't be in an attacking position by the end of the set.

I think the game plan is there, but we are just clunky. We get in the way of each other, seems to be slow in attack, and we arent winning the ruck. @blakeandthepork @GorskiOPork @mattlenevez

Xavier Savage is set for a stint on the side line with an ankle injury. MORE: cpnl.ink/injury-update-… Brought to you by Realign

@RaidersCanberra Paps has a habit of scoring memorable tries vs the Rabbits. 2019 preliminary was another . Great memories

Papa 319 = Best throwback of all time 🥹 #WeAreRaiders

@NoShins81 @GreenMachinePod Hudson went to grab the jersey. He has done that previously. Dom's hair was in the way. No way it was an intentional hair pull. Agree 1st issue was Dom tackling the defender

Hudson was stupid However Dom Young was holding two Raiders players back from tackling, which I thought was an illegal play, which made Hudson react… Last time that happened Hudson was the one binned @GreenMachinePod

@DavidStacka @handofyes @theSportress Agree there is a difference . He won't be on huge dollars , I'd imagine he be close to the bottom of the top 30. But it still taking up a spot.

@handofyes @theSportress But it’s not Kyle Flanagan. It’s a perfectly adequate backup winger, not an adequate halfback we’re slotting in to run the team.

Jed Stuart might be staying a really long time sportress.org/2026/04/07/the…

@Raiders_24Sep89 Think we are missing 1 Front rower to help Paps and Taps. Agree in PVL ball we need a little different at 13. I dont think Hosking is a prop either , so it's a win win. Forgot Pattie on the bench needs to happen

@RaiderADD Agreed on horse. I don't think he's mobile enough for a 13 role

Ricky is a patient man

@NoShins81 @TheGHRaiders So will fit in the first grade team

@RaiderADD @TheGHRaiders Hasn’t had many games because he has been on the six man bench Watch on the weekend, he was ok But dropped the ball at the worst time and let Knights score the match drawing try

#GHRaidersChat RAIDERS ROUNDTABLE Winger Xavier Savage has been ruled out of the Canberra Raiders’ clash with the Rabbitohs in Perth. Who should Raiders coach Ricky Stuart bring into the team? Would you make any other changes to the line up? Can the Green Machine break their losing streak on Saturday? What tactics are required? #NRL #WeAreRaiders #CanberraRaiders #NRLSouthsRaiders

@TheGHRaiders Hows Jed been playing in NSW Cup?

#GHRaidersChat I suspect Jed Stuart will be the player who comes in and I can see why… he demonstrated last year that he’s safe and good defensively. I’d be interested to see what Sione Finau could do in firsts, different player, with more speed. Other changes… I think it’s time. I’d like to see Matt Timoko come back in, with Simi Sasagi needed in the forward rotation. And either Brailey starts, or Pattie replaces him on the bench. This GH Admin’s personal view only. - GE

@handofyes @theSportress Yeah hopefully a few wins and all this goes away.

@RaiderADD @theSportress Hopefully

I hate football. I might make this a music blog #NRLKnightsRaiders #UpTheMilk #WeAreRaiders sportress.org/2026/04/05/rai…

@handofyes @theSportress Or form isnt what it was last year , Young team when winning full of confidence , a few losses , they need to learn to handle them .

@RaiderADD @theSportress I just think there’s something happened behind the scenes that has eroded the connection between the players. The way they’ve been beaten imo can’t be explained by injury, rule changes or “luck” they aren’t playing for each other. They don’t trust each other

@handofyes @theSportress Definitely part of it. I said we havent adapted to it. Its almost the polar opposite of how we played last year , factor in some players form hasn't reached last year's level .

@RaiderADD @theSportress So your explanation for us going from best to (at best 2nd worst) is , “Vlandys ball”. Thats it?

@handofyes @theSportress Those teams stunk last year , we didn't, so we have that grace .

@RaiderADD @theSportress It’s a rhetorical question. Though it’s worth thinking about. Was Manly performances any worse than ours have been? Is the dragons any better? Why are their coaches being questioned, and ours not. Particularly since the massive drop off since last year.

@handofyes @theSportress Why would have? We have just come off our most successful season. I think it's more to do with PVL ball, we have not adjusted to it. Our style last year was to dominate the middle, PVL ball is about playing edge to edge

@theSportress This is a diabolical raiders season as I’ve seen. Has Ricky finally … lost the dressing room?

@TheGHRaiders @P_Glo Yep Dom had his arm across Tamale. Sin bin my ass. #YabbaDabbaDoo

For mine, you could argue as easily that Dominic Young put his arm out in front of Tamale and held him back. A sin bin was harsh, I thought. Then there was the penalty against Weekes because Dominic Young ran into him. Some tough calls, in my view anyway. Time to write a match review! - GE

How on earth can that be a sin bin for Savelio Tamale?! Both players were going for the ball. #NRL #NRLKnightsRaiders

@DanielJ60975711 Dont worry we are the Flintstones. PVL is a warped minded fuckwit. If he is happy to not have me involved in the NRL. So be it. He can suck a big fat one Yabba Dabba Doo

After watching 5 rounds of the NRL. I am fucking over it.. Whilst this 6 again bullshit is around, the game is skewed TOO far to the attack. BALANCE is what is needed NOT just points at all cost.. For his extremely brilliant business brain, PVL is brain-dead at the game itself!!
