Deulofeu injured a muscle in his right leg in Evertons 4-1 win over Fulham in the English Premier League on Saturday. Barcelona says that its team doctors will "co-ordinate" with Evertons medical staff as Deulofeu recovers.When James Tedesco broke the news to Canberra CEO Don Furner that he was back-flipping on his big-money three-year deal, little did the club know it would ultimately be the making of them.With a rag-tag legion of discards, journeymen and no-frills imports, Ricky Stuart and his coaching staff have ushered in the second coming of the green machine.Just one game away from the clubs first NRL grand final berth since 1994, the question is being asked, how did they get here?Especially given just a few years ago the club was on the canvas after a devastating series of knockbacks from some of the games biggest stars.Tedesco famously backed out of his move to the nations capital after being seemingly signed, sealed and delivered. Penrith Josh Mansour spurned a lucrative offer, as did Melbourne forward Kevin Proctor.The club also lost a tug-of-war with Brisbane and Anthony Milford departed which, combined with missing out on Tedesco, opened up salary cap space to secure a number of unheralded players starting with Blake Austin.It hurts, particularly the ones that say yes and then change their mind, Furner told AAP.Its a real kick in the teeth but you pick yourself up and keep on going.We then started looking at Austo (Blake Austin) because Wests Tigers kept Tedesco and they had (Luke) Brooks and (Mitchell) Moses so Austo didnt have a set position there.Out of something bad came something good.Having played a majority of his career off the bench and covered just about every position, Austin wasted no time in establishing himself as one of the games premier five-eighths upon his arrival in 2015.Its the sort of Moneyball recruiting which caused the Raiders stocks to skyrocket.Joey Leilua quit Newcastle after a spat with then coach Rick Stone.His partner on the Raiders lethal right edge, Jordan Rapana. was pulling beers in a pub and playing park footy after a Mormon mission and failed attempts to make it in rugby union.Hooker Josh Hodgson was considered Englands fourth-best hooker before coming to Australia and is arguably now only behind Cameronn Smith as the games best rake.ddddddddddddnd the Raiders wouldnt have jagged Aidan Sezer from Gold Coast had it not been for Daly Cherry-Evans signing with the Titans - only to later backflip.While Furner would like to say its all down to smart planning from Stuart, assistants Dean Pay and Mick Crawley and recruitment manager Peter Mulholland, he admits good fortune has also played its part.Theyre all different, they all have different stories about how they got here, Furner said.Some of its by planning and some of its by luck. Its a bit of both.We didnt know we were going to get Joe Tapine at the start of the year, we didnt know the whole Parramatta thing was going to blow up and Junior Paulo got squeezed out.That wasnt planning - we were just in a position to take advantage of that.So not only is the future looking bright for Canberra, it appears that way for a long time.Of the clubs top 17, all of them, save for Rapana, Edrick Lee and Paul Vaughan are contracted until the end of 2018, granting the Raiders great stability and propping their premiership window open for several years.The important flow-on is that Canberra is now an attractive destination for off-contract players, an idea that seemed highly unlikely a few short years ago.The people that bag Canberra came here on a school excursion when they were 14 and they got off the bus and it was cold, Furner says.But the blokes that are here now are 24, 25, 26. Its a great place when youve got young kids. Theyre not 18, 19, 20 and wanting to get into the nightlife of Kings Cross or Gold Coast.But if youve got blokes that are a bit older and bringing up children, its such an easy place to live.Our facilities are unbelievable, its in close proximity to anywhere we go.Those guys are speaking highly so when Elliott Whitehead is calling Josh Hodgson asking Should I come to Canberra?, Josh Hodgson is on the phone saying Mate, come. That helps.And winning. ' ' '
