**live game feed** vs the Raiders

[voice_of_reason]

Cant believe people are blaming him for the pass to the touchy, where was Nofo?

He was onside - the pass went way forward.

I agree with most of the rest of what you said - I think the potential is there.

 

[voice_of_reason]

The deflected kick off Garners leg cost 6 points
The kick out on the full from Brooke's took the gas out of our defence
The penalty by Garner cost us a 6 points and started the rot
It was the little things in the game that cost us today

There was also the try from a dropped ball. It's not like they tore us apart with brilliance. Despite how poorly we played in periods, the score probably didn't reflect how tight the game was.

The other thing I forgot to mention was the Raiders line speed in defence off their own line was ***unbelievable***, like it almost , *really really looked like they were 3m offside every time.....*

 

[Droppy]

Teams we looked better than this round;
Broncos
Eels
Bulldogs
Titans
Warriors
Manly
Cowboys
Dragons

Let's not forget Canberra are premiership favourites. We will get better over the year its not all doom and gloom.

So you’re tipping us 9th again?

That calculates
Good pick up

I think we are in the 8 if we are better than 8 other teams?

Probably because they were...

Key moments in today’s game that cost us any chance.

Brooks x 3 grubber 5th tackle straight to the Raiders. Brooks kicks out on the full with a bomb and from a kick off.

Kepoa x 2 bombs a try from Laurie ball and then makes a break and throws a bad pass for a Raiders try.

Garner x 2 missed tackle for Raiders try and bad penalty after a nothing kick from Raiders.

BJ x2 bad offload to JTJ coming out of trouble and takes a player off the ball for a Raiders penalty.

Mbye bad harbour bridge pass to winger should have been a try.

We bombed 3 tries and gave them one by Kepoa bad pass. Garner missed tackle cost us a try also.

It’s a game we could and should have won but same issues keep coming up.

Good summation ofthe game.

Correct
My mistake
For Someone who prides themselves on maths I had a shocker there
I counted back the wrong way

And they were because the ref and touch geese only had eyes for us.

People who thought Liddle will be better than Harry Grant... 🤦‍♂️ Have been saying this all off season, the bloke offers absolutely nothing. Hope we see Simpkin at starting 9 next week

Certainly hope we don't myself.

 

[Russell]

Liddle can't play 80

Hello, he just did.

Very poorly.

In your opinion, which you are entitled to.

I'm just glad Simpkin wasn't there - those Canberra forwards, would have eaten him for breakfast.

 

[tony soprano]

Packer played 11 minutes bad player or game plan?

Tbh I don’t think he could have done any worse than Liddle...

Packer played 11 minutes bad player or game plan?

Tamou had 3 stints due to HIA and Stefano went for HIA after a 25 minute stint as well. Joe O, Tamou and Twal were great.

Stefano needs to lift in attack

Tamou’s arm grab led to their first try

Frozen was good

What do we do with Brooks?
I’ve bagged him but hoped he’d show something .
Not worth persevering with.

Same ?
Different year

Disappointed that I thought we were a much better team this year. We’re not. Somethings wrong.

Nah , we just lost key moments , like that 5 min period just after half time . I know it’s disappointing, but I think we are definitely better . We lack penetration on the right . AD is lay down mesere to start at 6. I can’t believe anyone was questioning that .

I have never come across anyone who has blinkers on more than you.it’s ok to be positive and optimistic but I think you are blind to the reality as far as this team is concerned. It’s just ground hog day

What , no it’s round 1 , and we lost the game in a 10 minute period literally from the 41st minute through to the 50th .
It was 6 all at half time .

A lot of you guys , lack any rational thoughts . Canberra are an elite team . We stayed with them in the forwards , which we haven’t done in previous years . That’s what I look at. Like I said in another thread , come talk to me when we aren’t playing competition heavyweights , and the spine solidifies itself , and continuity grows . Mbye for 1 ,spent the whole offseason at fullback . Laurie arrived 2 weeks ago, our 6 was watching from the bench .

No complaints with Mbye it was a big ask and of course Laurie was a standout .But as long as we are not competitive against the top sides we have no hope of making the 8, no good just beating the also ran’s it’s just masking over the problems with the team and the coach

Not to be a jerk , but if you honestly think Mbye was doing what he was supposed to , than I don’t know what to say , in a team that has a strike centre picking daisies all day . That’s on him to get the centre the ball . Nofa didn’t get one pass at speed all game. He didn’t use Laurie , either . I know why you liked him , cause he put in 2 grabbers for set repeats . That’s like some Des Hasler attacking structures there .

Sorry mate think you may have misunderstood i didn’t say I liked Mbye’s game I was just trying to make the same excuses for him as you did he is an average player now I’m a bit confused about what you’re on about ,you seem to be all over the shop
