Warriors hold out Raiders in wet

14-6

The New Zealand Warriors have held the Canberra Raiders out at a wet and empty Mt Smart Stadium today, taking the match 14-6 in atrocious conditions.
With rain falling from the opening whistle, it was the Warriors who drew first blood, a penalty goal following a tough opening 20 minutes. Shortly after they boosted the lead to 8-0 with a great try finished off by Brent Tate but the score did not change from there until 13 minutes after halftime.

Ive just fielded a call from Dave Furner, he is contracting me to play next week, seems the comedy festival is having an encore and has snapped up all 17 of the raiders boys along with grant rovelli, so they will be unavailable

 

[lockyno1]

Hope witty is ok. With the kick, just a small loss of concentration, even the greatest kicker in NRL misses one every so often

 

[Dutchy]

He missed 2

 

[wittyfan]

Technically one. The other one was hampered by injury.

 

[Dutchy]

Stats say 3/5

Technically 2

 

[Martli]

No, technically 2. There is no provision for an injury.

 

[wittyfan]

He was just injured just before he struck the ball.

WHAT THE F**K!!

Tell me somebody is kidding. Take a look at the leagueunlimited 3-2-1.

Tuimavavae 194m
Lauaki made 99m and set the tone for the match with an aggressive yet controlled opening 20 minutes.
Henderson was fantastic off the bench.
Witt created a great try but that was abot it, and Rovelli??? I'll say it again. WHAT THE F**K!!

 

[lockyno1]

Hope it is a minor injury, don't wat to miss him. Rovelli can f..k right off

 

[Rovelli]

We got the win. That's all I care about

 

[Raider_69]

They'll get no argument from me. That try put the Raiders on the back foot for the rest of the game.

 

[Martli]

He was just injured just before he struck the ball.

No sh*t, and it still counts as an attempt. You're an idiot.

LOL I was just about to mention that!

Yes, it counts, but it wasn't exactly a regulation miss.
