LIVE GAME Round 26 v Raiders

[Yossarian]

Give it a rest Dan.

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

So if you compete for the ball and miss, it’s a disruptor penalty, thatll do me

Disruptor is an entirely arbitrary penalty.

 

[jadtiger]

Terrible refereeing today although we have not helped with mistakes and dumb penalties (i am looking at you fat Hunt)

 

[tig_prmz]

I was so happy for Canberra to win the minor premiership but this whole build up in this game has just ruined it for me.

 

[GCfan]

We need a better bench that can be used. That try was off the back of exhaustion due to such a weak bench

 

[NJLM78]

Just 2 more mins till we get a penalty.

 

[BirchgroveTiger]

Ethan Strange best 6 in the comp, will play for Australia, we haven’t stopped trying💯

Ref may have been atrocious but after an even first half, the Raiders outclassed us in the second and deserved to win

Alot easier to out class when you get momentum penalties and have all the ball...

Wouldn't say they outclassed us at all anyway..

 

[Merlot]

ref bias has been going on as long as the game.

With the help of the ref and bunker giving them the momentum. It is what it is. 🤷

A really dumb side, make the wrong decisions time and again. Worst kicking game in the comp, terrible last tackle options. We really really need to sign a halfback for next season.


Luai is the anti-halfback. Every last tackle he takes the wrong option. Very concerning for Api, he's way off the pace, looks tired and slow and has no impact on the game anymore.

If we had Fogarty we'd almost be a top 8 side.

Bird tried hard today, the ref killed us, but we made too many dumb mistakes. We lose the ruck every week. Lack the quality. A terrible bench today.

A team of passive players. No forwards who are aggressive or dominate. Spine was terrible today

 

[BBTF]

Weak effort from Fainu but they look spent.

We have 5 forwards who play close to a full game. The coach does not have trust in Hunt, Murray, Mason to play big minutes (and I don't disagree). But it is going to kill your forwards by the end. Imagine in that back 30 if we had fresh forwards like Canberra did. Bringing on Mariota etc?

Well done today. Defend like that and you win plenty of games. The attack needs to be a lot better and that is on the coaching. It has let their excellent defense down.

Btw I dont think the disruptor was invented to rule on BS like that with Bula. Penalties like that are not in the spirit of the game nor was tackling the kicker for the penalty on Luai.

He goes alright. Great mover.

 

[Westoz]

Luai and Api shithouse today

 

[bigsiro]

We didn't deserve to be beaten by so much today, but the game has changed massively since Api failed to challenge the Skelton strip.

A few sliding doors moments here. All that went Canberras way.
The disrupter.
The legit Luai tackle on Fogarty.
Pole dropping it over the line.
Skelton strip.

Hard to do anything without the ball

No Seyfarth. Him and KPP next year add to that.

 

[tig_prmz]

This game apart, I'm very happy for Canberra. I'd have put money on them to win the spoon at the start of the year. Well done

I couldn't disagree with you anymore...

We played well today... A few decisions go our way and the whole game is different..
