Doesnt matter anyway, our luck is shot as was just shown by that accidental offside......
Sure you can't help accidental offsides but the ball should NEVER have been at that end of the field.

We should have gotten the penalty and we'd be playing the ball about 20m out.

Why the f**k is that a dangerous tackle?

There's been at least two or three others in this game that have gone unnoticed.

The Raiders played a lot better than the scoreline indicated. The referee completely changed the momentum of the game with the worst call you are ever likely to see by penalising the man with the ball for being blatantly pulled back down while he was trying to play it, and that was that.

That second Inglis try was an absolute corker, one of the best you'll ever see and completely un-defendable.

Melbourne deserved to win in the end, but boy am I sick and tired of seeing them drop forearms, grapples, chicken wings, you name it in every tackle, hold down for 5 seconds after the referee calls move, and still continue to get away with it. If the referee called the game according to the rules, they'd be the most penalised side in the comp.

Both Melbourne and Manly have that ability to grind until 8 points in front, and then open the throttle. Very hard to defend against, and pure class out wide.

Replay me thinks for 2008 GF

Why would anyone write off the Raiders for this year?

They only lost to Melbourne in Melbourne, like most teams do!

They can still make a play, just like the Knights.

Well with only 8 games left you'd think they'd need to win at least 5 if not 6 of them, and I can't see that happening with our draw.
