Offical Match Day Thread: Roosters v Raiders

[The Skeez]

It should have been a penalty try because of foul play in the process of scoring.

Great point.

[The Skeez]

Suluka-Fifita is such a liability with the amount of penalties and set restarts he gives away in his short time on the field.

I thought he was solid. They can’t all be superstars first up

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

After the last 3 weeks this is the type of performance the club really needed

[horrie hastings]

What Gosford hoodoo?
.

That's our 7th win from 17 games at Gosford so still a bit of a hoodoo ground, but twice we have played Canberra there and both times we have won so no hoodoo as far as playing Canberra there

[The Skeez]

Now that we have played the Waiders, I wonder if we announce the signing of Tapine??

mmm where would he play though and in place of whom? - he's a lock / back rower

I had little confidence tonight, but I am so glad my judgement was misguided. They were solid and I was mighty proud of that display. Our players can hold their collective heads up high - they wore the jersey with pride.

I was also happy that I stuck solid in both my footy tipping competitions hahaha.

[Rooster_6]

Thanks some good stats there, you have any on missed tackles ?

Found then.

7 missed tackles
1 penalty conceded.
1 try assist
0 line breaks.

Oh no, we’re back to measuring our halves on defence.

Lam and Walker are done for

[Grant Hedger]

what's that song

There were 10 German Bombers in air
10 German bombers in the air
10 German bombers
10 German bombers
10 German bombers in the air

And the RAF from England shot 1 down
And the RAF from England shot 1 down
The RAF from England
RAF from England
The RAF from England shot 1 down

and so on to no German Bombers in the air cause the RAF from England shot them down

.

Imbecile.

I was shocked we were $1.30 favourites, like you hard to have a lot of confidence when looking at that 17 and seeing all the talent sitting on the sidelines.

Tonight probably said as much about the Raiders as it did us though, they really were horrible. I thought Robbo’s half time assessment that we got lucky was pretty much bang on. 2nd half Raiders just seemed to roll over and we just turned it on.

Time will tell Wob

[King Salvo]

Imbecile.

I think your an example of why they need to reduce concussions.

[King Salvo]

Time will tell Wob

your telling the story epod

[Lydon]

On a side note I was interested to hear Robbo mention Crichton will be back for the Titans game..

As far as I’m aware Crichton was suspended for 2 matches, so either he is including the Origin game or Robbo got it wrong (which i doubt)

Raiders were always without Klokstad, Papalii and Williams. Living in Canberra, the mood was very glum amongst Raiders fans.
