Raiders tactics.

[Defer to the coifed]

I noticed 2 distinct tactics the other night and both worked.
First was they kept flipping us. Lifting shins after first contact. Got us on the ground trapped slow play the ball set their line.
2nd thing was the one on one strips attempted. Got us a few times too and IMO tightened up our offloading.

The stealing the ball thing is as weird
They kept giving us 6 again.

We get better dummy half service, jimmy shifting it better and blokes just friggen running harder and the opportunity to pinch the ball all but goes.

Im only going of supercoach stats but it appears our offloading was well down. perhaps that was the intention.?

Makes sense. Be natural to hold the ball a bit tighter if they're always trying to steal it. Sezer seemed to be one of the main culprits. Not a bad ploy when they did it on zero or the first tackle, deep down our end.
