And the thing is, we've been pretty ordinary compared to the last month's worth of football too. Not trying to take anything away from the Knights, but that's the truth.

The Raiders were ordinary againt the Broncos and that was in the last month.

The Raiders have been far too good today and we have been our own worst enemies. The penalty count alone, which were all justified, killed any chance of us winning the game.

I'd love to see the Raiders continue with this run of form, good for the game to have a new side doing well in the comp...

Very ordinary performance by us today. Seemed a little off cue and it noticed we were missing a genuine hooker. Happy with the win none the less though. Campo was solid.

LOL, Thurstons just come back from surgery and the cowboys are way below what even Newcastle were today.

Solid win by the boys , Knights defence was OK.
TLL in a bit of trouble , it was a bad tackle , no malice , but bad all the same , might not see him for a month.

Well it wasn't our day out there today. That try before halftime really killed off our chances and made it difficult. The errors and stupid penalties cost us and we really just gifted the Raiders field position. It was probably one of our worst performances for a while. The game itself wasn't too bad but it didn't live up to its potential.

Another thing I noticed was the referee, I didn't like how he kept stopping and starting the game to call Buderus out when he obviously had no intention of sending anyone to the bin. There is no need for countless warnings and we all know they don't have the balls to send someone to the bin.

Makes it a tough road to the finals for Newcastle now. We must win either the Storm game at home or beat the Broncos up there. That is assuming we beat the Cowboys which is no certainty on todays effort.

Congrats to the Raiders, played pretty well and made the most of our poor discipline. Will likely win all of their last 3 games and get a good position for the finals.

Couldnt agree more there mate, either send some bastard to the bin or get on with it.

Canberra 's form since round 20 soft draw

They played depleted titans

Lost to Brisbane the only serious top 8 side who took canberra seriously 34-6

Beat penrith played poorly & newcastle

Canberra will not go pass week one of the finals ,alone being the only threat
