Raiders coach Ricky Stuart impressed despite loss; confident for upcoming match against Cronulla.
I was very impressed with the gracious and restrained performance of Raiders coach Ricky Stuart after Canberra's nail-biting 29-28 loss to the Brisbane Broncos. The Raiders were pipped by a Broncos field goal in golden point. I am confident the team can beat Cronulla on the weekend, and last week's loss may end up being a blessing in disguise. I have always held the Panthers in high regard and see them as the team to beat, and it is now impossible for us to meet them until the grand final because of the current finals draw.
The NRL also needs greater consistency with its decisions. Broncos fullback Reece Walsh, as talented as he is, should have been suspended for his head butt....
