LIVE GAME Round 16 v Raiders

Live Game Discussion
Where the hell is the live game thread for other games this weekend
Was going to comment Penrith thrash Warriors in NZ minus their 5 origin stars yet they scraped home 3 tries a piece vs Tigers last match
More evidence we are ALMOST a good footy team

This is true, however I feel like it’s a game the Raiders just did what they had to do to get the points. I have no doubt they had 2 or 3 more gears if they needed it.

Therein lies the problem, other teams know they can manage games at 80% and still get the win.

Lol...i highly doubt that.
There was a try in it for a long period... you dont compete at all if you're 1 or 2% off.
 
Oh.....so Cambo relies on peeps from the city to fill the ground.

I keep hearing about all the billions of people who live out there that are crying out for more footy,yet its those evil meanies from Rozelles fault right I get it.

Well if thats the problem lets not have all the beautiful waterside peeps travel so far and have all the games at the rectangle problem solved.

I must admit ive always fround this argument utterly hilarious and ridiculous. But i guess any excuse will do to cover the embarrassment i guess.

Facts are the crowds out there are pathetic and its like an away game for our boys. They even play uplifting music when the opposition scores it beggars belief.

You can be assured the next game at Lilyfield will be a sea of orange, noisy and full and the lads will notice it and play accordingly.

And we wont need to ask where the fans are from lol........

I don’t like the shift to full Polynesian.
You need variety, you need different experiences, backgrounds and world views. You then build a culture based on shared values and goals. I suspect the new cultural shift is being forced on some of the guys rather than embracing something from them as well.
Might be way out of line on this but it’s how I see it currently. They aren’t a cohesive unit all facing the same way.

Are you going to be consistent with your view and say anything about the fact the Penrith got rid of all the key polynesian players except To'o and have kept all the key white guys? Burton, capewell, cogger, etc. were not key players. The core Islander guys were. Or does that not fit your agenda?
 
I think he might have meant what he said @BZN.

I mean I live the attitude of the side.

Slow decline with shots of light, then back to rubbish.

The good times get less and less in duration and spike. WT all the way..lol
 
This was a successful captain's challenge for Canberra for a hair pull.
Why didn't the Bunker go back to first infringement on a challenge (where the Raider's winger was off side in the kick chase) ??

Oh, there's a touchie there too right in line, I just can't see his white stick.

Suzie what was the atmosphere like at the ground?

Look, I love CSS. I have since I started following WT in 2002. But, it doesn't seem to have the atmosphere of other grounds unless it's absolutely packed. Last night, it was freezing cold, the Raiders were louder than us. I think they need to turn off the stupid music that is SO bloody loud, you can't even talk to your husband sitting next to you!

However, the crowd was behind the boys. Then the "odd" calls started, and it deflates. I yelled to hubby at one point, we (the crowd) go quiet when we see the "odd" decisions. And, seriously, if we find it disheartening, how must the players feel?

We can't get a 50/50 despite the noise, and so, we shut up. I dunno. It's sad.

Yeah Suzie that is exactly how it is. I was very pumped for last night. After they scored their second one I felt let down and lost my enthusiasm. Maybe when we feel deflated is when we should get louder.

I agree, but how do we do that when we're used to going quiet?
