Have you ever tried to play ANY sport in 30° and 100% humidity?

Ricky's Raiders just need some luck, there's no need to panic

It’s very hard for those who live in Canberra to play in a sauna like Townsville!
And does anyone seriously want Hodgo or Croker back? EVER??

Remember it was Todd Payten the Warriors wanted: Brown was second prize.

Picking my 2021 NRL top eight

Don’t underestimate George Williams’ brother Sam – he is great!

Picking my 2021 NRL top eight

I was born in Brisbane, educated and married there and my daughter was born at Royal Brisbane. Two years after I left for the greener public service pastures of Canberra, the Broncos were born. I had given up following League and was busy raising my daughter, getting promoted and breeding and showing my dogs.
In the mid 1980s I met my now husband; our first date was a Raiders game. I was instantly interested in the game again and have followed the Raiders ever since, but have kept an eye on the progress of the Broncos too.
I thought a small, largely unnoticed incident in last week’s game summarised what the Broncos have become quite neatly. Jake Turpin smacked Ryan Sutton in the jaw quite deliberately, and got away with it – but broke his hand in the process! That really sums up the last two season for me.
Maybe the Bronx have to just wait out the curse and start again from scratch?

A letter to Broncos fans

It was 23°! If any of them liked heat they would NOT be with the Raiders. Papa and CHN were pouring water on.their heads before kickoff.

It’s exactly the same as the game last year against Parramatta in Darwin. They don’t like heat.

John Bateman returns to help Raiders to win

I was born in Brisbane, attended Eagle Junction State School and Kedron High. then QUT. I can think of only one response to this whole debate” GO THE BLUES!

Which superpower is in faster decline: America or Queensland rugby league?

Russell PACKER???? For a moment there I thought you were serious! 😂 😂 😂

Who's your team's big dog in the pack?

I would guess the problem is that Rugby League and computers should never be used in the same sentence? Most people remain scared of technology if it goes beyond email – how on earth can you expect to get people who understand the game and can use the technology?

NRL reveals they can't demote video refs because nobody else is qualified

Of course they make mistakes – that’s humans. BUT can anyone think of a time when a major decision went against the Roosters? In this century??

NRL reveals they can't demote video refs because nobody else is qualified

My memory of Edrick Lee is of a guy at GIO stadium holding up a picture of a bus; the sign said “the only thing Edrick Lee ever caught!”
He was at his fumbling best last weekend/ 😂

Newcastle’s next three NRL matches a test of their will

” heavily influenced by medical & political figures” – makes MUCH more sense to play in Campbelltown than in the virus free ACT?????

Travel woes incoming for the Raiders

They always use Murray’s coach.

Travel woes incoming for the Raiders

Canberra has had NO active cases for one month as of yesterday, so clearly it’s not based on risk?

Travel woes incoming for the Raiders

WHERE did you study geography? Oh, that’s right – Queensland.
Canberra to Campbelltown – 232.7 km
Brisbane to Gold Coast – 77.8 km
Yep, just about the same! 😂 😂 😂

Travel woes incoming for the Raiders

The ACT Government has said they want to open the stadium for games.

Travel woes incoming for the Raiders

We are surely talking about genuine contenders here? The Warriors would have been in the same position on the ladder if they stayed in NZ!!

Travel woes incoming for the Raiders

Aaand there you have the NRL’s reasoning, gotta stop the Raiders!

Travel woes incoming for the Raiders

Ricky Stuart seems to be doing okay at the Raiders, but Mal Meninga and David Furner did NOT!

Seven talking points from NRL Round 3

Because he’s a Rooster and they are a protected species!

Seven talking points from NRL Round 3

His comments about Fyshwick were stupid and offensive too – there are many men who can attract a woman without cash changing hands. Clearly he is NOT one of them? He is a fool.

Joey's ref criticism is absurd

And MUCH better support from his forwards!

Six talking points from Canberra Raiders vs South Sydney Rabbitohs NRL preliminary final

The guy has a shoulder issue and was hit on the jaw. He was clearly fine. Sore losers, Souths, and lacking in logic!

Gus certainly has a good head for radio!

“Just happens to be there”? I have never seen him run so fast to just happen to be there. 😂

Touch-ups or touch judge: Which had a bigger impact on the 2019 NRL premiership race?
