Round 18 v Canberra Sat 05/07/25

[Number of the Beath]

When Debelin leaves our middle is going to get destroyed.

Unlike now, where with de Belin they get destroyed.

 

[Dragons4me]

Full time and we went better than expected by everyone. It's a long climb from the bottom. KFlan may not be a 7 but he's a trier, and the best we have at the moment so I'm not going to fault him. Ricky got the win but was unconvincing. Not a real contender on that effort tonight compared to the usual suspects. Roll on next week.

 

[St Tangles]

Im not upset with the team tonight

We put in effort

f**k Sutton

 

[This Year?]

Unlike now, where with de Belin they get destroyed.

As soon as he goes off the field it's like a dinner bell ringing.

 

[John moz]

Ref had a shocker sloan try in the first half disallowed
Jayden sua had a blinder and ref won it for Canberra

 

[JohnnoMcJohnno]

Seriously dudded by Sutton. When are they going to sack that clown?

 

[jeffdragon]

Errors at crucial times typical of the team.
Happens too often.

Some bad Ref calls and bounce of the ball cost us.
Why not challenge Allen one?

Effort can't fault that.

Weekes 3rrd try was terrible defence.

Just knew we couldn't get it done even at 4 down.

For all his short comings Sloan burnt Weekes off the park.
No communication for a bomb againworh Gutho.

 

[R&WTILLIDIE]

I’ll be very surprised if Canberra wins it this year

 

[Hound of Dracula]

If we can keep them to 12 I will buy GF tickets for the whole forum. How's that?

dick head!
we did f**ken awesome
Go procrastinate elsewhere!!!

 

[Dribble&Yarn]

Mick Molo was lowkey good tonight - deserves another run next week tbh

 

[sammymills]

kris clearly knocked that ball backwards, bunker didn’t even look at it just go jayden sua knock on challenge unsuccessfulll. ripped. The ref deserves the Steve Clarke Jubilee treatment.

 

[Lovemedragons]

Not overly unhappy with the loss. they dug in. Just some really dumb plays at crucial times. Why is our team so f**king dumb? What does it take to be a smart team like the Storm? They hardly ever make dumb mistakes.

My 3rd glass of red is settling me down, they played about 70 minutes of good NRL and the other 10 minutes playing like clowns.

 

[SEAT 1A]

It is simple tonight.

We lose by 4 and was robbed by at least 4.

Need to put aside everything else.

 

[matPORTS]

I don't have too much to say.

For the most part, we play way too conservative in addition to making errors when they aren't needed.

If anything, the lesson tonight has to be off the back of the adlib plays which led to us coming back at them late. If we can see more of that between now and the end of the season, we will win more games.

We've heard Flanno say this many times over the last 1.5 seasons... there is a football team in there. It just needs to come out.

Raiders road trip is tough even in the best of times. Even tougher due to the season they are having. Wish them all the best. They are a serious team this year.

Yep no slow mo zoom in just show once at normal speed and call it a saints knock on fox we're even saying we got a hand to it after Canberra knocked it back

 

[saintmar]

Sloan burnt Weeks
well done
The only speed we had

 

[thebigredv]

All i can say is...that's 5 losses that could have easily been wins this season, not even stretching to say (drop ball on magic round v tigers and 3 choking 1 point losses added to tonight)

Give us just two of those and we could play finals. Instead, we simply won't be...again.

You call that paper thin defence on Weekes with two of our most experienced players arm grabbing effort, is that effort. I call it petulant

How about hitting him hard with a shoulder.

 

[VodkaSaint]

What a pleasure watching a true speedster
Oh Sloane
You could be something extremely special and sadly it won’t be with us and maybe not in the nrl
