Round 3: RAIDERS vs TITANS

[DIEHARD]

Yea very happy to see Taka back.

[TITAN FAN]

Yes great he is back why in the hell was he pushed aside in the first instance, he proved himself last season and with repeated selection gained confidence as a result improved every time he hit the field, at least he can defend Raders are sure to continue where the Tigers left off ,down the same side

[DIEHARD]

Raiders: 1. Anthony Milford, 2. Reece Robinson, 3. Jarrod Croker, 4. Matt Allwood, 5. Edrick Lee, 6. Jack Wighton, 7. Terry Campese (C), 8. Dane Tilse, 9. Glen Buttriss, 10. Brett White, 11. Jarrad Kennedy, 12. Joel Edwards, 13. Paul Vaughan. Interchange: 14. Josh McCrone, 15. Matt McIlwrick, 16. David Shillington, 17. Shannon Boyd

[Supergoose]

Happy than Taka is back in, thought there needed to be change to our left side as well though. We won't get a better chance against the Raiders who have lost Fensom and Papalii for this match. Still a tough ask considering what we have served up so far.

[K2G]

We really carved the raiders up in our early season game against them last year, and we have a history of playing some pretty exciting games against them. I'm hoping Mini drops out for James. You'd think the boy's will be roaring for a big one this weekend.

Lets hope so mate

A big ask given the last two games ,they got through by the skin of there teeth against the sharks should have won easily without Carney and loosing Gallen

Tigers also had a skinny squad and they polished us off

lets see if they get out there and play as a team for each other this round

[TITAN PETE]

It is an insult for James to be named 18th man after the rubbish that was dealt last weekend , Myles to the backrow, James to starting Prop & Minichello to Burleigh

[DIEHARD]

And to add further perspective the Bulldogs smashed the Sharks yesterday.

Or is the insult he turned down more then $100,000 a year more at Sydney clubs, shows the club loyalty trains hard enough to be on for the fittest in the pre season just so he could get dropped to qld cup in reward? #SACKCARTY

It is also an insult to see Zillman retain his spot despite his inept performances.

and LOL @ Blair dropped for Taka. Great buy hey Searle?

[karnage]

Blair had to be dropped. Great. But Taka is not the answer now and he will never, ever be the answer in the future. He is a second rower. His lateral movement is not good enough in defence so if our defence gets spread thin the likes of Milford, Croker and Robinson will cut him to ribbons.

It is so frustrating that our club can allow us to be so wafer thin in such a clutch position. We have one average starting centre and absolutely nobody behind him.

Canberra have scored 20+ away to the Knights and Cowboys, both of whom are better than us. They will score 20+ against us at home. We will not score 14.

[Blade07]

He could be another Segyaro , exciting to watch

20 + 20 + ? We are going to get lapped and I hope we do. After last weekend they can go and get stuffed until Cartwright is gone.
If it takes some hidings for that to happen, so be it.
