If we get Thompson and Hodgson we suddenly don't look too bad on paper.

It is looking better.
The centers and halves are the wildcards.
Get those combos right and we give the 8 a shake.
Big turn around from the disgust we felt after the dogs game.

Twal has just been extended 2 years. Any thoughts from the panel?

He is one of the very few in the pack that consistently has a go.
I’m happy for the extension.

Sign him up for life

Michelle Bishop is the Jurno that stated that Brooks was on his way to Newcastle 100%.
They don't get it right all the time.

The centres are the killer and there is no talk about any possibilities.

This in Rothfield's article on Gus Gould.

English front-rower Thompson has been offered to the Wests Tigers. ?

For a Pie or Fish n Chips..?

Definitely not Grandma’s shepherds pie. Gould would only be caught with fingers in too many

Hoping Hodgson is a done deal for Tuesday ?

Not getting my hopes up but apparently this week is the last week for Raiders to make a deal or WE move on..
Looking at there rosters they are not in any salary cap problems so my gut feel is they will keep him this year.

It's not a cap issue with Canberra. Hodgson stuck up for his mate George Williams when Ricky and the Raiders flicked him and bad mouthed him to the media. Him and Ricky now despise each other

That report is a week old already. Will have to wait and see.

It turns out Laundy has been a long-time Wests Tigers supporter.

No, I'm sorry, if you start bankrolling the opposition you aren't a Wests Tigers supporter. Maybe you used to be.

Is he an anti Vaxer ?

Apparently he ended up getting vaxxed

Stacked in the forwards, light in the backs.

Douhie and Gildart might not be that bad

Problem is AD is out for half the season and Gildart is an unknown in the NRL

Garner in the centre’s ?

Garner in the centre’s ?

Garner from the interchange offering his strong line running in the second row or a fill in at centre if required. He provides balance to the team and x factor from the interchange.

This idea is reasonable but I think peachy will fill that role

that laundry hotels bloke is their version of the roosters chump

Its interesting - in todays Telerag Laundry says he is a mad Wests Tigers fan and always has been. Good mates with Sheens and said he was ringing Sheens in England to try and convince him to get Woods back to the club. Surely the club must have known this guy was a keen tigers supporter and yet did nothing to entice him to throw his money our way.

Any update on old josh Hodgson?

At Raiders training. Could be wrong, but I think if it doesn’t happen this week, it doesn’t happen at all.

Apparently we have set a deadline for Monday COB.

From the Telegraph

Josh Hodgson’s highly speculated move to Wests Tigers is on the verge of completely falling over.
It is understood the Tigers have set a deadline of the close of business on Monday to know one way or another if there is any chance of negotiations proceeding.

But unless there is an 11th hour change of heart it appears Hodgson will be staying put for the final year of his current deal.


It’s been suggested that the Tigers only want to pay Hodgson $500,000-a-season to make the move, but would offer him a two-year deal.

But given he is currently on a reported $850,000-plus, that would still mean a significant pay cut for this coming season, although he has been paid the first month of his 2022 salary worth an estimated $70,000.

The Raiders are also reluctant to let Hodgson go given the current uncertainty surrounding Tom Starling’s potential availability for the start of the new season.

Starling will front court in the new year over an alleged incident outside a Central Coast establishment that has resulted in police charges.

The Raiders were at one point interested in a potential swap between Hodgson and Jacob Liddle but nothing has come of that.

The Raiders have maintained all along that there is no ongoing drama between Ricky Stuart and Hodgson relating back to George Williams’ controversial exit earlier this year.
