Its been coming for a few weeks now to be honest. Since Herbert went down we have bean beaten by the Cowboys and just beaten the Bulldogs.

The injury toll was just too much, not saying we would have beat the Sharks anyway. We would have certainly been more competitive with another playmaker though.

Losing Justin Carney who is a solid defender outwide was pretty bad as well.

I don't disagree that the Raiders aren't playing the standard of footy required at the business end of the year, but these f**king clowns couldn't referee an under 8 game.

After the Sharks let the Cowboys score three times in 8 minutes to finish last week there's still plenty of time for the Raiders to do something, no matter how unlikely it looks right now.

Canberra were fodder tonight. Disappointing by their own standards.

The refs/video refs are just going to their usual standard throughout the year. No surprises there, and no reason to explain how flat Canberra were tonight.

I don't normally rate the Sharks, and they have snuck home with a few close games where they weren't really the better team, but tonight they're streets ahead of what the Raiders have dished up.

Bartman the Raiders have looked average since Herbert got injured. As I said earlier we got beat by the second last team and just beat the Bulldogs.

I hate to be negative against the lads, but we are just a playmaker down. Herbert compliments Campese.

Yep, Buttriss just hasn't cut it at halfback tonight. I'm sure he'd be disappointed with his performance.

I can't believe Raiders called up for a forward pass after the one by the sharks let go

Best has no case to answer
Yeah I was going to blow up about that one too but waited for a replay in case I was off the mark.

However, this is a Channel 9 game so there were obviously more important things to show, like some dudes sitting on a bench.
