2016 Wk 3 Prelim - Storm 14-12 Raiders @ AAMI Park

[Walt Flanigan]

Canberra went away from what worked so well in the entirety of the second half of the season. One loss and then tried to reinvent the wheel.

I didn't see it like this at all. Just about every time we had the ball we were moving it around and attacking Melbourne's edges but they're a harder team to crack than most. Didn't help that both our centres were busted either.

 

[Pete Cash]

Yep

The storm are very good defensively. We couldnt hold our nerve when the try scoring opportunities were presented.

Finals are about taking your chances. We couldn't. What was funny was our broken down right hand side edge of paulo, tapine and whitehead put on a simple shift play and lee bombed a basic cut out pass

Lee's was woefully inept

 

[Pete Cash]

It was certainly a bad game from him.

He might be facing some competition next year from the likes of kato ottio for his spot

Haha, funny guy, enjoy watching the storm beat the sharks next week, that would have been you.
And geniused jokes are bottom of the barrel, they always say more about the person saying them.
And enjoy the exact same thing happening next year with Ricky at the helm.

Wowsers nice meltdown mate

 

[Light Reflections]

Well league can f**k off now. I'm. Or watching another game where the storm just grub it up like merkins and get rewarded with a premiership.

Next week will be a carbon copy of the boring as f**k 2012 GF, culminating with one of sports true assholes being lauded as a hero at the end.

League is being slowly raped to death by he storm and the weak sauce officiating that has allowed their cancerous tactics to spread

[gitano]

P.S. Get it up yas!

 

[Chief_Chujo]

Your clubs to shit for anyone to care about your trolling Gypsy.

 

[The Undertaker]

Will the Raiders recover from such a devastating loss?

Will it affect them next season as much as it did the Broncos?

devastating loss ?
its not 30 nil
they had their opportunities right to the end but blew through inexperience and shit refing

 

[gitano]

You're alright, Cujo. Considering your team hasn't won a title this millennium (we've won one this decade).

Was more directing this at Pat, AlwaysGreen, Skeepey and esssspeciallllly Walt.

When Raiders were playing well, they rampaged up the field on the back of strong runs just wide of the ruck and then threw it around. Tonight they were either throwing it about too early or trying to grind forward.

 

[Desert Qlder]

A year too early perhaps for Canberra. Iron out a few kinks and they will be there again next year.

 

[gitano]

Plus all the bandwagon viking clappers. Years of pathetic 5k crowds, before a few wins dragged yas out. May you go back into your sterile, pasty-white existence. Cheers.
