Wighton is the Bryce Cartwright of fullbacks. Entirely possible he will have a blinder. More likely he will bomb.Their options aren't really any better.
I'll be there.Guy, on Friday night the raiders an Ricky Stuart are having a meet an greet at the Sofitel hotel in Brisbane . My friend is a cleaner there an says the raider did it last year to. Am thinking of going to see what they are like in person for some shit an giggle. Any one else here be interested in meeting up around 5pm near Sofitel an joining in the meeting ? Stuart last year was drinking afterward at the hotel bar an was getting little drunk. Be funny to see lol
I'll be there.
I don't think Stuart likes moving players around out of position. He brought in Zac Santo to play FB a while ago instead of shifting Rapana.Entirely possible they play Cotric at 1 and bring Abbey onto the wing. I don't rate Abbey but Cotric runs hard and breaks tackles just as well as (if not harder than) Jack, plus he doesn't have the poor hands or brain snaps.
Dangerous proposition. Hopefully Sticky goes for "safe" option of Abbey at 1.
Good point. IIRC, that was against us also, and we got the win. Hopefully history repeats.I don't think Stuart likes moving players around out of position. He brought in Zac Santo to play FB a while ago instead of shifting Rapana.
@Morkel has loads of Raiders gear because he's secretly a huge Ricky Stuart fan, so I'll grab some jerseys off him and meet you there. Would be fascinating to see what Ricky is really like.Ok cool. Not sure though if we would need to be wearing raider supporter clothing (jersey, shirt or flag some thing like that) as is a meet n greet with their supporter/fan only i think. Wouldnt be able to wear our bronco stuff as wouldnt let us into the room. Will try to find out more detail from my friend there .

You bringing your kids with you? Ricky swears a lot so may not be a good environment for young ones.

And does it blink a lot when under stress?I have a life-size Ricky Stuart costume. It comes with a partially-broken plastic chair stuck to the foot. It’s actually a re-coloured version of the Josh Reynolds costume, but with a lot more salt.

Solid. Still have concerns with Kahu at centre. If Bird is out for the season it works for us, dont have to try and fit him in there somewhere at the expense of someone else.We're getting pretty close to full strength again here (Not including Jack Bird, obviously.), once Gillo returns I think we have to keep TPJ & Su'A starting, which would mean shifting Moose back to prop.
