We love the mighty Canberra Raiders
The Canberra Raiders have been dragged into the Wests Tigers' Anzac jersey controversy following claims their 2022 Anzac jersey also featured a stock image of a US soldier.
Wests were forced to withdraw this year's Anzac jersey from sale, refund people who'd bought them and then redesign it at a massive loss following the revelations.
The Raiders have contacted their jersey supplier ISC, who designed it, but won't know anything further until next week because they're closed for Easter.
Senior player power was behind Jarrod Croker's NRL return, Canberra Raiders coach Ricky Stuart revealing it wasn't the first time he's acted on the advice of his Club 82 leadership group.
But the potential return of injured stars Xavier Savage (jaw) and Nick Cotric (hamstring) could put Croker in a fight to hold onto his spot in the Green Machine.
Training early in the week will give Stuart a better idea of whether the pair were ready to return.
Ricky Stuart has confirmed the Raiders - at both the playing group and administrative level - are doing everything in their power to retain Jack Wighton.
Stuart told the press conference after the Raiders' surprise win over the Brisbane Broncos on Saturday night that Wighton has a special relationship with plenty of personnel at the club, and that the Raiders don't want to lose the star five-eighth, who played for both the New South Wales Blues and Australian Kangaroos last year at the representative level.
"We are doing everything we possibly can to keep Jack. Jarrod [Croker] and myself, so many players have a very special relationship as a squad of players," Stuart said.
