Ricky Stuart reflects on missed opportunities, while heartbroken Raiders fans struggle with disappointment.
How many nights will Ricky Stuart spend staring at the ceiling?
Wondering what might have been. Thinking about a headbutt, a rival fullback's 15-minute miracle, his crook five-eighth and the smash and grab mission that ended the dream.
The sun will come up on Sunday, but Stuart might not sleep a wink. Thousands of heartbroken Canberra Raiders fans will be dragging their feet, running off the fumes of an extra strong Midori and milk. That might sound ridiculous for those whose moods don't depend on the fortunes of their favourite football team. How lucky they are.
