Living in Canberra, the Raiders game is always a massive game for me. The 89 GF, the loss in the snow around 2000/2001, and that that year where we had two golden point losses to them, personally I dread playing them. Yes we beat them in a semi, yes we did beat them once by about 40, but the last few years has been atrocious.
I called for them to be forced to run laps of the oval after last year's pathetic performance, finals on the line, and we go to pieces. Well today was even worse. Sure we had injuries, but so what? Where's the passion? Where's the motivation to not let down their mates. An opposition player goes to the bin and again the opposition scores? They let down their fans. It's their livelihood, it's a performance based job and the performance is nowhere near good enough.
2 wins from our last 9\. Eels are better than that. Wonder if Moses MBye has actually signed yet, gee I hope so. Would love to make the finals, but even more so, I would love to actually feel that we deserve to make the finals.
A week off? No way, I'd send them to hell and back during that week, and see just who does make it back.
