NRL RD 3 2021..*Spoilers

[Fade.To.Black]

I was thinking at half time that our effort in round 1 looked pretty good in comparison to the Warriors: we were 6 - 6 and the Raiders were lucky to have 6.

The thing that gets me is the incredible luck that favoured the Warriors. To play the Raiders with a 17 man advantage to 14 on a hot(ish) day in the ACT is fortuitous, but then to be awarded a try from a pass that was so blatantly forward that the recipient almost fell forward trying to catch it puts the cherry on the cake.

We are in competition with the Warriors for the bottom half of the 8. I hope we enjoy some similar luck when we play some of the top sides - we are going to need it.

Warriors were worthy winners. Credit where it is due.

Nah, they were lucky.

???Sure.
They were 20-odd points behind weren't they?

Dogs vs Broncos a bludger of a game. Never have I seen the gap between good and bad sides so broad. Not good for rugby league

I’m enjoying it ...

Feel for Canberra. Clearly the better team but having a one man bench for majority of the game was always going to take a ridiculous effort to get the win

Warriors were the better team .. they won !

17 vs 14 was only ever going one way. Warriors did well to win but if it's 17 vs 17 all game it's probably 40+ points for Canberra.

They also scored off a forward pass and scored two tries running at a bloke with broken ribs ? like I said did well to take advantage of it but Canberra very very unlucky. Great game of footy, Canberra fans can't be upset at that

Serious? What about the 4m forward pass that the ref was gonna be happy to let go at the end? Very glad the Warriors won despite the ref.
We will get absolutely done over by Gerry The Germ tomorrow.

Those long floaters often get let go, backwards out of the hand is the rule. The warriors forward pass try was 100 times worse

??How can a pass that supposedly goes backwards out of the hands go 3-4 metres forward? Not possible unless you are playing in the midst of Hurricane Katrina.

If you're running forward and throw a pass, the ball will float forward. The pass wasn't as bad as you are making out, haven't seen anyone else even mention that it looked forward. Looked fine to me

He threw it midway between the 10 metre markings on the field. The bloke caught it nearly on the next line marking, in my world that makes it a 4 metre forward pass. Pretty basic really.

This is one of the worst games I've watched in a long time

Like I said balls can float forward. The ruling is backwards out of the hands. Doesn't really matter anyway as RTS saved the day

This game is so bad I'm almost enjoying laughing at it

 

[Geo]

take the 2...

 

[TheDaBoss]

woooo we have movement

 

[Geo]

Dogs a 40m FG to hit back..

 

[Tiger_Steve]

If this game is sending you to sleep go to NRL.com and listen to Ricky’s press conference. Funny.

 

[Geo]

Wicky had a sookdy..

 

[Geo]

Gutho has the 3rd most punchable face in RL..

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

that warriors win and roosters loss etc has really jammed the competition
tomorrow against the Knights an absolute must win, win it and we are back in business

Lose and it’s season over

lol pretty much
I'd say lose to cowboys and Manly season over

 

[jadtiger]

Absolutley abysmal game

 

[PJASLR5000]

Surely the tigers are better than both these teams. This is painful but laughable

 

[LeichhardtTiger]

After watching the rabble Brisbane v Dogs and the Sea Budgies yesterday I am less concerned for our mob.

 

[jadtiger]

The new definition of purgatory "A game of football between Brisbane and Canterbury refereed by Cummins with Ginane and Ananasta as the commentary team"

 

[Furious1]

Watching this ridiculously boring game of footy just proves there is no way there should be expansion without a draft. The quality of players is just not available.

 

[AL The Tiger]

We can't be worse than these lot
