09 :: R17 Sun :: Raiders 34 Titans 28 @ Canberra

[Pete Cash]

The only really bad ones that come to mind was the shocker on that TLL tackle and the mystery penalty that was blown heaps late.

 

[Eelectrica]

Titans have shown how far they've come since last year. Last year the Raiders would have ended up with 50 or more. This year time just ran out on the Titans from coming back and forcing into OT.
Congrats to the Raiders though on a brilliant first half down a player. A half which won them the game.

I think it says as much about what the Raiders have done since last year as it does about the Titans.

WOOOO go the raiders! i love them so much. god poor Justin Carney, hope he's on lots of painkillers.

exactly.

most other sides would have continued on in the 2nd half and put the game away. Canberra went into their shell and let the titans back into the game

 

[Kiki]

Even if the Raiders manage to win today, at least it's good to see them sustain crippling injuries

what the f**k is wrong with you?? what a completely sociopathic thing to say. you are reprehensible.

 

[VictorTheViking]

Some of those refereeing decisions were absolutely disgraceful, the dangerous tackle? There two on us in the first half that were just as bad as that, and that bullsh*t penalty against learoyd lahrs....Lafrenchie take a bow, thats the best acting ive seen all year.

 

[VictorTheViking]

They had to have knocked him back at open trials or run over his cat, not even ink is this much of a f**kwit.

 

[Pete Cash]

Justin Carney is an upstanding member of the Raiders community who does a lot of work with young kids. He really is an example of the good in the Rugby League community and one of those players the media ignores in favour of the idiots.

So Spike that is a stupid comment even for you. I guess you are just feeling the pressure with the wheels falling off Newcastle's season.

 

[VictorTheViking]

I thought that even Spike would've had a bit more integrity than that, he's a f**kin disgrace to all league supporters. f**kin scum

amen to that.

A game of two halves ... onya Raiders you may just sneak into the eight.

Unfortunate injury to JC ... a compound fracture will heal quicker than Henderson's shattered break so he'll back. Who was that moron that made that ridiculous comment? Should be banned.

Titans stood up after a woeful, complacent start. I friggin' hated Friend's comment that he accepted less than a win before we came down. However, Bailey, Harrison, Minichello, Cannings and Rogers due back shortly and the move of Walker into the centres perhaps showing the future our finals shot is looking good.

 

[Paullyboy]

That second half was dominated by two decisions - the one where TLL was penalised for absolutely nothing which took away our momentum.

The penalty given to the Titans where I ask anyone to justify it. The tackle was completed, you could count to 3, then the ref blew the penalty because Meyers dared to keep whinging. Ridiculous pathetic officiating and it continues to be the sole biggest reason for the Titans being competitive.

 

[skeepe]

Not a bad performance by the Raiders, if they could bottle that first half they'd be a top 4 side. Sadly we've seen more of the second half type of performance this year.

Learoyd-Lahrs was again sensational and must be very short odds to make his Origin debut. Campese was back to his best, Tongue was again sensational and Dugan backed up his great performance last week with another solid showing. Gee that kid's going to be good as he grows into his role.

Shattered about Justin Carney... out for the season with a broken tibia and fibula... ouch.

Now, Chris James is the most incompetant maggot to ever hold a whistle. He simply has to be dropped for his absolutely baffling decisions in the second half, penalising TLL for a phantom elbow that surely only he could see, and then blowing a penalty, apparently for holding down, about 5 seconds after the players had got up, got in position and the ball had been played. Baffling, and an absolute disgrace to the refereeing profession. Yet another example of how Robert Finch's reign encourages absolutely mind-numbing mediocrity. The man must surely be sacked if this ineptitude continues.

Spike, shove your head in a mincer you oxygen thief. Whilst I have no great love of the Knights or anyone who plays for them, I would never be happy to hear a 20 year old had broken both bones in his leg. You are scum.

:lol: And as sure as the day is long, skeepe bitches about the refs.

I can't wait for Saturday :lol:

 

[Spike]

I don't know what the big deal is, he's just a Raiders player

 

[skeepe]

:lol: And as sure as the day is long, skeepe bitches about the refs.

I can't wait for Saturday :lol:

I was happy with Badger's performance, it was that Chris James maggot who had a shocker and you'll see that I'm not the only one who thinks so.

The Titans were offside ALL GAME. Not ONE tackle were they back with the referee. Sometimes they were standing as far as FIVE METRES offside, and nothing. They committed 2 spear tackles in the first half, nothing. The Raiders make an identical tackle in the second half and it's penalised.

Open your eyes you goose.

 

[Pete Cash]

I can't wait for Saturday :lol:

Both his complaints were fair enough. TLL got dudded by a blatant and cat like dive from Lafranchi (At least I think it was him) who went flying to the ground clutching his throat like he was an extra in a Tarintino gun fight scene.

And the other penalty looked like Meyer just asked the ref for a penalty and the ref thought a man with your beard can't be wrong and gave it. He blew that penalty so late it might have been during the Raiders post match celebration.

 

[Kiki]

tibia and fibula...argh poor bastard.
