Not sure what game the author was watching. Gamble’s arm was across his mouth and he pushed his head down. The referee and judiciary have been played. The witness did not even turn up to the hearing.
Wighton should have been hit for six over Knight bite - and given an extra match for arrogant sledge at heated hearing
Every word in this piece is correct. I think Ricky has been able to get a 15th placed roster (or thereabouts) above their potential and just into the eight but that’s where it ends. Yet a change of coach is not the solution. Players do not readily want to come here. The 2019 scenario is a once in 15 year event. Once that is accepted, everything is ok.
Sticky question: Has Ricky Stuart taken the Raiders as far as he can?
nice to see the Raiders up there but there remains a frailty about our team. We go to Bruce and literally count down the second half minutes. Always doing the mental equation – 12 points in ten minutes? … nah. Then again, it could be part of a grand strategy – our expectations are to scrape into the top eight so we’re just so pleased when they get up.

The Raiders Player of the Match was Clint Gutherson. Knocked on at critical moment, penalties given away, positionally poor and bags his own players. Long May He Reign.

Raiders had nothing to do with the decision.

Jack leaves with our good wishes and our thanks. So close in 2019, but for the bald trainer and other mysteries. Every player has a finite number of years to earn for themselves and their family. The Raiders can now plan with clarity for 2024 and beyond, presumably with an extra $4.4 million to spend. For Souths, many of us lived through your Superleague whingeing, your rightful dropping from the NRL due to your appalling management, and to see you featherbedded by rich benefactors makes us laugh. You’re Easts in different colours.
Wighton's contract call after tug-of-war between Raiders, Rabbitohs and Dolphins sparks complaint to NRL
The dumbness is strong with the liquorice all sorts and their fans. Systematically and charmlessly giving the finger to each and every club through this year, and last year. The team piles in at the slightest provocation, they lobby the referee as strongly as Cameron Smith ever did, and they pray to God way too much in thanks for their victories. It seems hard, I’m sure, for them to contemplate coming second. When it does, it’s going to be sharp and swift and ugly.

but I like Nick Kyrgios. And I like Lattrell too. The world would be a boring place without them.
Latrell Mitchell – pioneer, entertainer, or just an ordinary fullback?
Lattrell is one of the reasons that my whole family, not just a few of us, watch the game.

I’m actually filled with regret at the post. Shouldn’t wish them ill, hoping for them to be more comfortable in their excellence though. They don’t need to do that crap. We all know they’re good.
NRL preliminary finals talking points: Eels rope the Cowboys, Panthers trap the Bunnies
No love for Souths, saved by billionaires, but Penrith are the new Storm. Scragging the kicker, holding down in the play, permanently offside, and never miss a chance to send 5 or 6 in whenever there’s a bit of a set-to. Mouthy. Graceless supporters. More of a cult than an NRL team.

It is not the members of the board as such, it is the governance structure. It mirrors the English Cricket Board and the counties. The connections on the board to states must be abolished so that the interests of Australian rugby are put first. Then they can spend less time wondering how to get rid of the Brumbies.
COMMENT: Australian rugby is a depressing picture - the RA board must be axed and the constitution changed
