GAME PLANS? We don't need no stinking game plans.

:cry: :cry: :cry:
I have really fell out of caring about the Raiders. Its so sad. Its not that we suck because we have sucked worse than this. It is Stuart.

He has coached them to play like loving morons. I knew it would happen. That very brief period of time when we were good was the most false of false dawns ever. I still watch them but i just don't care lol

I could write an essay about it but why does he keep putting Paulo at first receiver. Stuart literally drops players who do one thing wrong. It is clearly what he wants but why ?????

Anyways yeah booo the raiders.

When I was a teenager and we lost a game to the dragons I smashed the radio I was listening to against a wall. I spent cold hard monies on a tantrum changing my name here. I have had my fair share of tantrums about the raiders. Now I just sit here watching them like I am doped up on heroin. If there is an afterlife and there is a purgatory then its a bar serving VB with a 24 hour raiders 2017 station stuck on.

Raiders were around the same position this time last year and ended up finishing 2nd (which I totally forgot about lol). Maybe they'll hit a purple streak again.

The Knights need to sign James Maloney (or Cooper Cronk), James Graham and Ese Ese and we will probably not get the spoon next year.

It's about finding that next group of core players we can win with in the next 6, 8, 10 years. Let's face it, it's hard for 20-, 21-, 22-year-olds to lead an NHL team. Look at the playoffs.

I'm going to be an optimist and pretend last week didn't happen and that we have the ability to play somewhat like we did against the Sharks. Tigers by twelve.

Also Raiders are not looking great so far...

The crazy thing is that about 2 months ago Dylan Walker chucked a ball at Croker after he made a mistake in a game where we were up by 10. From that little sledge onwards the Raiders have completely lost the plot.

Dylan Walker derailed our season. How is that possible ????????

I told you early on - it's an odd numbered year, Raiders will be nowhere.

edit: real talk though you have a lot of excellent players but major weaknesses in spine (other than Hodgson who has been off his best too), and severe lack of depth.

Watching last night it's clear that Hodgson has been decent to good. It's just everyone else is rubbish. We were so much more terrible without Hodgson

I said at the start of the year that wighton has improved but will feel pressure from cotric. That time is now. Cotric must go into fullback.

The last tigers set was possibly the worst football I've ever watched. And refereeing.
