Deadset, if Skeepe blows up about that no-try, I'll be in his corner. Fair dinkum, an absolute bullsh*t call. So does this benefit of the doubt for a try only apply when they feel like it?

I don't think I need to. Everyone knows it was the wrong decision. The commentators called it - it should be a try, but given it's the Raiders, no try.

Watch us go on and lose by 4, only to hear Bill Harrigan say it was the correct decision and the video refs are always right.

 

[nickraider]

How unusual for the video ref not to award us a try. That was bullsh*t!! Whatever happened to benefit of the doubt?!!

 

[bileduct]

f**k me dead I've had enough of the video ref.

I'd rather the guy in the middle make a wrong decision than have someone still make a wrong decision with the assistance of mutiple viewing angles and replays.

Bad call from VR. No doubt about it. Someone at Canberra must have screwed Robert Finch over in another life for such bad karma.

Yeah well we did sack him from the club.

Or in this one. He was sacked as Raiders football manager before he took over the refs.

I think its fair to say you should expect consistency from the VR for being inconsistent.

 

[skeepe]

Regardless of the result, I hope Neil Henry spends $10,000 and finally says what everyone is thinking about the standard of the video refs.

He worked for us and we sacked him when our current management took over.

Too right. If we lose this I'm up for another donation.

 

[Garts]

FMD, that was a terrible call. Clearly BOTD should have been applied, I swear monkeys must be in the video ref box randomly hitting buttons.

Had a feeling i would be bringing this article up today.

The Raiders completely outplayed the Dragons in the first half and should probably be up by more. I haven't seen the Raiders play this well all year.

For the Dragons Cooper has given away atleast 3 stupid penalies and Gasnier looks as if he doesn't want to be there. Brown has had a brain explosion - I'm not sure what he's done with our backline - with Gasnier defending at fullback and sometimes wing and Cooper is playing at right centre, I can't figure it out.

We deadset play better without Gaz in recent months.

Good god... well no one can take this away from Purtell.

Cmon Canberra, put a score on these merkins

 

[Hutty1986]

20-0. It's over. Playing for 8 in a row, against the Raiders (who are away from home) and they serve up this disgusting f*cking tripe. Absolutely ashamed right now

F*ck off you bitter little turd. We beat your team fair and square last weekend, grow a brain

Did you watch Gasnier during the leadup to that try? Either he's injured or doesn't want to be there - no effort whatsoever.

 

[PARRA_FAN]

These Raiders backs can play, I mean that Milne has got some pace.
