'10 | Close the Gap R24 | Sun | Raiders 32-16 Dragons | Canberra

Interesting ruling here.

He most definitely was tackled. Dragged to ground, ball carrying arm touched the ground.

He also most definitely reached out afterwards, and the only reason the ball got to the ground was because he reached out.

And yet, because he rolled onto his back, he is allowed to make a 2nd movement??

Doesn't seem consistent to me.

And don't give me that momentum bullsh*t. Carney got pinged (and rightfully) against the sharks for extending his arm after it touched the ground, even though there was still momentum in the tackle.

Nothing set from Canberra. We're out on our feet here.

 

[Ladmate]

worry about your team.

multi-tasking

 

[Timbo]

5 to go, still holding a 10 point lead.

Heart attack specialists here. Keep holding boys.

 

[Dragon]

Soward and Gaz getting more involved, Fien also. Too little too late

 

[cleary89]

wtf was that.

 

[shear_joy9]

buttriss f**k yeah!

 

[Timbo]

Butts in with a dummy half sneak! That's the game!

But jesus, how much better did we look with Butts on instead of Tongue?

 

[aussies1st]

That's more like it, Dragons defence has gone out the window in this half.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

WTF are these idiot Raiders doing,tackle

Aye, Tongue really slows you guys down

Should be case closed on that debate. Although seems Tongue isn't even on the bench, hope hes good as hes brilliant at lock still.

You're on the money there. We are just as likely to come out now against the Cowboys and play like a bunch of special school kids.

We beat the Cows and the final round at Suncorp will be a cracker.

Jesus, you cannot possibly show that you hate the Dragons anymore if it was possible. Try. End of story.

Carney is a merkin anyway, why stick up for him?

Well played Raiders, I can't put my finger on it, but we just can't beat you. Nevertheless took the first half in your stride and slapped us bigtime in the second half. I hope we face you week 1 of the finals and spank you.

The Dragons just don't have points in them. If they fall behind they're in serious trouble. They remind me of the Sharks are few years back. All defense.

Great win from Canberra. They stayed patient and then blew them away. Campese, Croker and Dugan were outstanding.

Where's Skeepe to complain about the Costigan double movement?
