Kurt baptiste : Thu Oct 26, 2017 6:31 pm  
Heard we are on the verge of signing this bloke. 27 year old from Canberra. Think he’s a hooker.

Anyone know anything about him??

He is a hooker for the Raiders.

Search his season highlights on YouTube. Not much but solid and can pick a pass. Canberra offloading die to salary cap issues and I believe would be paying a portion of his salary.

Being understudy to Hodgson isn’t exactly an embarrassment.

Smallest player in the NRL and decent NRL standard player and a hard worker. Should be good in SL. Great as a back up hooker.

Raiders fans sorry to see him leave.

He's an excellent signing .it's no coincidence that in 2016 when he was interchange hooker with Hodgson canberra finished second in the league.

Last year he was injured for all of it and they were garbage...

That's a simple view and maybe not the reason why the raiders were dreadful but even Hodgson looked a better player with baptiste in the side.
Often baptiste would come on and Hodgson would switch to loose. ..

I hope we do something similar

Good idea, let's sign Hodgson!

KF seemed to suggest they wanted someone to cover hooker and loose, is he big enough to do that?

Looking at Clinton Baptiste’s highlights on YouTube, he’s quite the entertainer, seems to have a lot of foresight.
