with Papali the heaviest at 112kg

If 112 kg is Papalii's listed weight, he looked more like 130 kg last week.

Was going to make the same comment. He must have had one foot on the scales.

The Raiders are out of form they are beatable !

I can remember us playing them back into form either 2018/2019 .....Hodgson's 1st game back from his ACL ...remember

 

[happy_tiger]

Taking a look through the Raiders starting pack and physically they're not that big, with Papali the heaviest at 112kg and their tallest coming in at 188cm in Tapine. Obviously they are mobile and hard working and play with an aggression that we tend to lack. No to mention they more often than not know how to play for 80 minutes, something we struggle with.

Having said that, there's no excuses for the WT not to win the battle of the ruck provided we play with controlled aggression, hold the ball and improve our kicking game. Size is not against us, nor is fitness - our main battle is mental.

Papalii plays well above his weight ...as do the other Raiders forwards as they are quicker

If we measured how many Raiders players in that size are quicker than the WT's players it's scary

Gould speaks a lot of crap ...but speed is power is 100% spot on

They overpower us because they are faster in the forwards and bigger in the backs

@Geo was able to switch his horse and carriage licence straight to his car licence with wooden , square wheels

The wheels suited him to a T ...square and wooden lol

Was going to mention - whenever you turn, don't just glance at your blindspot, you pretty much have to turn your head like the girl in 'The Exorcist'. That's what tripped me up.
Good luck with it.

I can remember back in 1970 when i first started work i was working with a Qld bloke and what he was telling me about the how lax it was in all aspects of life up there.It really was 1930s style he came from Quilpie and it was a different world there

Funny. When we finished high school in 78, some mates and I travelled up the Qld coast. In Maryborough a mate and I went into the bank for some cash (before ATM's) and we had to hold our laughter. It was like films you see of the 1950's. It really was like stepping back in time.
