Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Raiders

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Yes! I backed Radley at 29:1!!!

Good shot!

[Rooster_6]

Raiders gifted some cheap field position, poor from Tetevano there should've locked up that ball. Bateman never stops wriggling in the tackle.

[Nigel Gaffey]

Verills showing his lack of NRL footy there. Assumed JWH had him wrapped up there and the sly offload caught him off guard. Can’t ever assume anything at this level. Tough call on keary didn’t help !

[roosterchook]

We never defend well against offloads. Our D is letting us down. That was a very, very soft try.

[Grant Hedger]

The sting is on

[Kingbilly]

Keary had that ball and it was definitely not a penalty.

[Tommy Smith]

Disgusting home town refereeing.

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

Surprise Surprise.... another BS striping penaltu

[RoosterFanNZ]

love these great referees

[chopstiks]

What the f .. how did Sezer even get the pen. Then theres the obstruction on Latrell. Raiders walking off the mark everywhere.

Klein back to his old tricks in no time.

[Tommy Smith]

Penalties before both trys.

Clearly rigged.

[roosterchook]

Another SOFT try! We are hopeless against a fast passing attack and offloads.

[Kingbilly]

Don't be fooled, this is not a result of poor refereeing. Its a result of good energy by the raiders and poor defence by the Roosters.
No doubt there have been a couple of poor decisions, but there have been many more poor efforts in defence

[Bmw06i]

I have replayed the first penalty 5 times and I’m still struggling to understand what it was for.

If Sezer had the ball it’s a 1 on 1 strip.

Someone please explain so I’m not feeling so stupid.

[RoosterFanNZ]

we are rarely able to apply pressure in defence cause of penalties
