Ricky doesn't mind if the Raiders LOSE

Wow.... Check out the press conference from after the Raiders vs Warriors game. It was 6 all at half time in Canberra, then the Warriors put on 2 more tries unanswered in the second half. Looks like the Raiders kind of fell apart, based of the video highlights.

Ricky goes on to say that he doesn't mind the Raiders losing more games this season, so long as they make that same kind of effort... or some BS. Can you imagine someone like Toovey or Des Hassler resigning themselves to that fact their team sucks and saying that s**t? The Raiders actually have a decent team this year - better than last year for sure. The only thing  that's really holding them back is a coach who says it's okay to lose, so long as they make an effort.... Hmmm, just watch the video and you'll see what I mean. Maybe it's in the delivery. He draws it all out with his pained face, trying to think of excuses to prevent his inevitable termination.

"it's good to be down... it's good to be disappointed" is another gold nugget from the interview.

  • Now it's a 10 year plan.
  • He just told the players it's ok to lose if it looks like you made a effort.
    So now they will just go through the motions for the rest of the season like we did under sticky after he said we would cop plenty of 50 pt loses.
    He really is a dumb coach.
    • Hahaha.... so that's why our performance was acceptable under him...
