Raiders ability to shut down Tedesco and Keary will determine whether they win this or get blown out.

Hope the occasion isnt too big for them.

 

Also surely Friend doesn't play? He wouldn't last more than 5 minutes in a grand final after being out for so long

 

The 2019 Grand Final referees

 

I'm happy Bmoz made another gf, but fuck the rooters!!! I have been on the lime green wagon since we bowed out. Il always support an underdog.

 

They couldn’t have chosen a better pair for the grand final.

 

And the fact that he is shit.
All this speculation in the media: "will he or won't he?" is funny AF- the Raiders will be hoping that he does play!

 

Fuck the roosters, and the raiders, it’s just another game unless we not in the big dance..!!!

End of the day I would like the raiders to win just because those other rorting pricks are at it again with a superstar line up. However the raiders have very much over achieved and won’t be wining this one.

 

Uncle Nick will have those 2 rock-spiders around for dinner on Saturday night to give them their final instructions. Then they will choose the make of car that their "gift" will be. Then they will each get a polish from Toddy (maybe their free cars will too) and they will be sent on their merry way.

 

great timing with the raiders shade of green becoming popular and with the release of joker even billie eilish getting on board, the timing worked out perfect

 

If Keary's ankle goes and they throw in Latrell as they are saying, Raiders win.

 

Every rugby league supporter except Rorters supporters will be going for Canberra. They need a miracle. One twist is the the NRL love a fairy tale and may want Canberra to win to maintain that no team has ever won back to back. Just to hide the Roosters Salary Cap rorts.

 

As I've stated in the other thread, Raiders take Sutton out (accidentally ofcourse) first play of the game(No, not suspicious at all), Raiders win!

 

Uncle Nick, next office framed photo!

 

When they retire,
... used car salesmen for life.

 

The Raiders only just beat Souffs cannot see them upsetting the cheating rorters, it doesn't even feel like GF week.

 

Don't know why people are fixated on the refs lol compare the two team lists.....

 

It’s because rorters are in. Dead set I was in Bondi on grand final day last year and saw 1 family with roosters jerseys on...

 

The Cap Compliant Roosters - 30
The 457 Visa Raiders - 4

 

There isnt enough build up for the big game, it just feels like another semi, the game really should've created and promoted some sort of storyline in the media, they could've jumped on the hatred most people have for the Roosters, could've run with the David and Goliath story... underdog vs superstar team, just needed something to ride peoples emotions and create some passion for the game.
