The Raiders yesterday embarked on an unprecedented week-long camp on the Central Coast in a bid to get their slumping season back on track.

McIntyre also rubbished speculation the club's board was set to accept coach David Furner's resignation in the wake of last weekend's embarrassing 40-0 loss to the Wests Tigers, labelling those who spread the rumours on social media websites as ''twits with tweets''.

The Raiders have won four of their 12 games this season to languish second-last on the ladder - the same position they finished last year when they finished with a deplorable 6-18 win/loss record.

''It's certainly not a crisis but they are very difficult times,'' said McIntyre, who has been with the Raiders since their formation in 1982.

''These difficult times is when you learn to stick together and strength comes out of your commitment to making sure everyone sticks together. It's not the end of the world.''

Before the camp was announced, McIntyre was set to sit down with Furner face-to-face today but said he would relay his observations from the Tigers flogging via text message.

The defeat was the largest handed to the Raiders at Canberra Stadium and featured a multitude of schoolboy errors, many of them unforgivable sins.

''It's probably the greatest collection of brain explosions ever been created in a game of first-grade football,'' McIntyre said.

''One of the worst things was late in the game when [Tigers winger] Beau Ryan went diagonally across field for 40m and it resulted in a try.

''Cynically you could say it was a guard of honour. Those things in first-grade football don't happen.

''Other things my grandson wouldn't do, like dropping the ball on the first tackle. Those fellas [the Raiders players] know that.''

McIntyre said he had fielded calls from a few of the other six members of the club's board, and that everyone was sympathetic in the situation Furner faced.
