Just wanted to let you know that there will be a limited number of shirts for sale this Saturday night, both at the Captain Cook Hotel before the game and during the match at the SFS. We will have all sizes both men and womens. But there will be very limited numbers. So if you would like to be one of the first to own the new RA shirts for 2010 please approach either myself or Boing (we will both be wearing RA hoodies so will be easy to spot) and we will sell you one. The price is $35 each. If you are certain you want one please let me know either here or via the RA facebook page and tell me the size you’re after so I can hold one for you so you don’t miss out. This is a strictly limited run.

If you do miss out or can’t make it on saturday, don’t fret as they will soon be made available online (as well as the new hoodies!) And what I don’t sell on saturday I will have for sale at the Rabbitohs game next week.

Cheers, and remember, BELIEVE!

The law of averages suggests that these decisions balance out by the end of the year, so surely we are bound to see some 50/50 decisions go our way, with a bit more luck we might even get some correct decisions awarded to the boys in green.

The effort is definitely there, this may sound clichéd, but it is true. When things start to click just watch how our side goes. We have blooded a lot of Rookies this year, who have all shown they have what it takes to match it in the NRL, these players are gaining valuable experience and the rewards will be shown in the future. Our new buys have also shown some quality form. All the ingredients are there for us to be successful.

The Raiders Army just want to remind all Raiders fans to get behind the side when they need you the most. It is very easy to get on board and show support when the side has won five in a row, but it is times like this when the support in the crowd can really help lift the side on the field.

Our next home game is against the Warriors on Sunday May 24, we would like to see a big turn out at Canberra Stadium to support the boys.

If you live in Sydney and are interesting in getting on A Raiders Army Bus to the game please contact Jed on jangus76@hotmail.com for further details.

We encourage you all to leave some messages of support below, we think it is important for them to know that their Supporter group is still 100% behind David Furner and the team.

 I am happy to confirm that we have come to an agreement with Countrylink regarding buses to away games and have secured coaches for each of our 7 away games in Sydney and have a tentative booking for the Newcastle away game. Countrylink are also going to put together a package for our game in Melbourne, which includes travel & accommodation, so we will see how we go with that one. The bus company we have secured has a 48 seater with a toilet and a 27 seater for games where we don’t get as many tourists. They will also be helping out the Sydney lads with their bookings (if required) and can arrange for the ‘beer on the way back’ policy to be allowed for their trips down the Hume.

I am ready to take expressions of interest and payments for the Wests Tigers away game in Round 1, to be played on Monday March 16^th in Campbelltown. I will confirm the departure times a little closer to the event, but I would envisage a 2pm departure from Jolimont at this stage. Cost for the trip will be $55 per person, which includes your return travel and maybe a beer or two on the way home. If you are interested in attending our first game of the season 9and kicking it off in style I might add), send me an email and I will add you to the list.

Also for those who purchased Greenbay 72 memberships, we have just got word that the flags have arrived at Raiders HQ. So bring in your membership card/ID to collect them.

Additionally, the Socceroos are taking on Kuwait in an Asian Cup Qualifier at Canberra Stadium on Thursday March 5. We are putting together a little crew and making a group booking of tickets in the “home” end. Tickets are $25 each, and we will probably have a pre-game syrup somewhere as well. If you are interested in joining us, send me an email at kw@raidersarmy.com

Happy days,

The following is from the Raiders Website.

Do you want to be a part of the new Green Bay 72?

Rugby League commentators have referred to our fans as “the most passionate in the game” and without doubt the most visual and vocal group of fans on a game day at Canberra Stadium sit in Bay 72.

The Raiders, with support from the Raiders Army* are encouraging all fans to consider sitting in the new Green Bay 72.

We would love to make this area as ‘infamous’ as the SCG Hill or Bay 13 at the MCG and we are sure that visiting teams will try to avoid, where possible, the South Eastern corner of Canberra Stadium!

‘Green Bay 72’ has a limited number of seats and as an incentive to make this area more visual and vocal than it currently is, the Club will provide an additional ‘Exclusive Bay 72 Item’ to those members
that sign up in this area.

Enhance your game day experience by getting amongst “the most passionate fans in the game”

——————————————————————————–

The club has set a goal to reach 5000 Members by Kick off 2009. It would be a great show of support if we could pack out bay 72 and make up a decent chunk of the 5000.

To renew/sign up for the new Green Bay 72 Membership simply visit www.raiders.com.au.

Hope to see you all there next season.

Cheers,

Marko

Tickets are selling very fast for the Cronulla semi final, if you have not purchased your tickets yet you should try get them A.S.A.P as there is a possibility of a sell out.

The Raiders Army have all purchased General Admission tickets, but after some discussions we have decided that we will be standing in the SOUTH WESTERN corner of the ground, this is the area in front of the Southern Grandstand. It is also at the end of the ground where the turnstiles are located.

We will be at the ground in time for the Toyota Cup Match so everyone should be able to see us as soon as they walk into the ground.

We encourage all Raiders fans to come join us in this section of the ground.

Spread the word to everyone you know that is going. We are endeavoring to  get the biggest section of Green Possible all together to try help get the boys over the line.

Hope to see many of you there.
