‘Appointed myself captain-coach’: Raiders adjust to life without Stuart | cadenhelmers
You ask Jack Wighton how the Canberra Raiders are coping with Ricky Stuart’s one-week ban from coaching as they scrap for a place in the NRL’s top eight.Wighton and the Raiders are preparing for a do-or-die month of football, and they have to leap over the first hurdle without Stuart at the helm after.
The Raiders coach is content to move on from the matter, opting against diving further into a family incident with Salmon which ultimately led the Raiders coach to brand the Penrith playmaker a “weak-gutted dog” in his post-match press conference last Saturday night.Canberra’s players are backing their coach, with Wighton adamant it’s business as usual around the club’s Braddon headquarters with his focus solely on keeping the ninth-placed Raiders in touch with the top eight.
Ricky Stuart has been suspended for one match over comments he made about Penrith’s Jaeman Salmon last Saturday.
