They had an easy schedule and got lucky a couple of times in close matches.

At no point did I ever sit there and go jeez this Canberra team is good they sure will be hard to beat in finals.
Can't all play the worst team in the top 8 in Week 1 to get to the Prelim.

Raiders fans commiseration’s

You had an amazing season and some great young talent has matured into real star potential. If it wasn’t for Hosking taking out Reece’s legs last week you’d be having a rest tonight.

I know you’ll be hurting bad tonight but you’ll be back next season and at the pointy end of the comp. The future is bright at your Club.

After last weeks Canberra game, I knew I should’ve thrown a $100 on Sharks to win
It was obvious Canberra weren’t coming back from that horse shit that happened to em

Some weird posters in this thread …. Raiders had nothing after last week add in no Strange well I would have been surprised if we’d won.

Yeah it’s poor to lose but after playing extra time last week it’s not like it wasn’t expected at least not from most people who have a clue about footy.

good game sharkies
Diddums lovey.

Still blows my mind that any other team that gets the minor premiership, everyone’s like oh yea they are the team to beat, and raiders just kept getting shat on. This game could’ve gone either way just lost some momentum with some questionable calls and imploded unfortunately and last week, well last week they were robbed.
Apparently Dragons 09 was the last straight sets out in the finals from minor premiers and we know how 2010 went for the Dragons, so fingers crossed history repeats in the Raiders favour
Hold up mate, those 2 finals games are vindication for anyone who doubted the Raiders. They did things they haven't done all year.

I think sharks are a better opponent for storm. Before the sensitive Sally sharks fans come at me, im not suggesting raiders are better than sharks, im saying that IMO sharks style suits storm better.

Perhaps.

I cast my eye over their team and they've got threats all over the park. Great bench at full strength as well. Their backline covers Melbourne's with ease. Iro and Ramien will hurt the Storm.

And I'm happy for Hynes. Way too talented to be a bum his whole career. A win next week will be pretty big for him.

The Sharks were down a middle for the majority of the game and Ricky didn't operate dual hookers before and after halftime to try and tire them out.

Coaching malpractice.

He should of by the 50th minute. Only way I could see them winning the match.
