Gavel is pretty close to the Raiders down here in Canberra and is usually pretty close to the mark on Raiders stuff. Not saying Cornish is the Messiah if it works out but if he or Elgey or another young half is paired with the right offsider in the 6 jumper hopefully Joey can turn them into...
In talking about the Raiders signing Sezar Tim Gavel on ABC radio this morning mentioned he heard on the grapevine that Mitch Cornish was being "looked at" by Manly. Kid can play and is the best half from Goulburn since the Pisspot. Though without the stupidity of T. Carney. Anyway just what I...
We will learn a lot and take a lot from this loss. I have a feeling the Bunnies may have just played their Grand Final, while we are still building towards ours. Having said that..................PENALTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Carting the opposition downfield. We have been doing it all year...
Hi, Just back in Canberra from taking my 6y.o. there. He had a ball, but it was a bit hectic and as mentioned not many "top shelf" guys there. Must say that Tony Satini was great with the young kids as was Wolfie. My bloke had a good chat with Jayden Hodges (I think it was him!) which he seemed...
Lurker = Adam Lucius online journo at Sportal.com.au. Gossip-monger like Spazz Rothfield or the "Mole" Tony Adams. Has more class than Rothfield.
Sid = nickname for DCE named after Sid the Sloth from kiddy's movie Ice Age (their necks are remarkably similar)
Hope Gifty doesn't go to Canberra, the word down here is that Sticky is disliked by nearly everybody in the club. Not a happy environment at all (No surprises there!)
Don't know if this has mentioned elsewhere, but Brookvale (part owned by the Legendary Bob Fulton) won at Scone yesterday. Handy win probably didn't beat anything much, but worth following at the provincials....... Not sure the great Gary Harley was impressed with the name but did mention that...
According to today's Canberra Times....

Complained to them thus:
Whilst I realise that Dick is indeed an appropriate surname for this future "Walkley Award winner", I understand that you cannot list all the QLD players who have committed incest, as that would mean that every neanderthal who has ever represented your banjo plucking...
Andrew McCullough. I know that QLD's best hookers are playing for Melbourne and Manly, but this bloke playing for the Broncos....seriously????!!!!! There must be someone better in the Banana-bending state than him!
The rumour mill suggests that the Broncos will demand that Gallop allows Lockyer to play wearing a Gridiron helmet. Expect Gallop to cave in. Like Lockyer's face.......
Re: Manly V Raiders -Teams,News & Game Day chat
Can report a beautiful day in the nation's crap capital. This means a chilly night probably about 4 or 5 degrees and no wind for the game. Will be there, freezing my proverbials, and absolutely bagging the crap out of T. Carney. Looking forward to...
Good luck to NSW vs the (what rhymes with Vics?!) in the Pura Cup/Sheffield Shield Final. They deserve to play on the SCG, not the NRL! Go boys! Bring it home to where it belongs....
Hi all. Report on ABC Radio here in Canberra that Todd Carney has been offered a 4 year deal by Manly. Has anyone heard anything up there? His manager, David Riolo in an interview on local radio here on Saturday said that half a dozen clubs were interested, but apart from the Raiders the only...
In light of Big Willie apparently signing with the Roosters, Here is the equation:
(Estimated only!)
Amos Roberts 250,000
Anthony Minichiello 350,000
Anthony Tupou 180,000
Braith Anasta 380,000
Craig Fitzgibbon 300,000...
