Both sides lacking intensity. If wighton doesn't work his way into this match canberra will lose in a kick out.

I wasn’t talking about the one tonight, just the rule in general. It’s a bit difficult to judge intentionality.

Anyway, I said the try was probably fair, as it was very obvious he wanted to play on.

I think its pretty straight forward to call tbh

'There's some really tired players out there'

There's also some shit ones Fatty.
Maybe Fatty is only trying to add weight to the point that there should be fewer rounds in the season, which would be disadvantageous towards his employer, and the players would earn less. I'm watching on Kayo BTW.

Canberra just shit the bed in that first half.

the lack of effort by basically the entire raiders side to not follow wighton’s linebreak was simply disgusting. Stuart should be tearing strips off those lazy pricks right now.

The only hope Canberra have is building up a 2 try lead by the 70th minute. If this game goes down to the wire, Souths will best out these mental midgets

Great to see the refs keep the whistle in their pocket.

The Raiders aren’t getting the milked penalties like they usually do.

I wonder if the rest of the raiders team will come out of with Hodgson in second half, they’ve been missing for most of the first.

Souths to walk this if cook gets his act together

Bj has something lined up. Its either a try for the ages he either sets up or score himself or its a prelim brain fart that makes ashton sims look like a MENSA member. No medium

I find it amazing how fans simply dont know the rules. Is it because they are changed so often ? The rules clearly say the ball must be intentionally grounded in goal by a defender to force a line drop out. Thanks whoever posted it and saved me looking it up
People are probably confused because there's been a bunch of similar plays ruled as a grounding.

I think the home ground advantage will still get the Raiders home despite their attack being shit.

I think you mean Sezer tbh...Simple Jack has been in heaps.

Sezer's only contribution so far is a knock on

I can't work this team out. Sezer had a great game against Melbourne and was getting lots of ball in good space. Now for some reason he is not getting any ball in this game and the couple of times he's got it, the defence has been right up in his face.

I distinctly remember a try scored in very similar circumstances last year. Also fullbacks get up and try again all the time

There are a lot of posters who think they are experts because they listen to Gus whinge constantly.

When I was searching for the rule, google came up with a couple of previous occasions it has been called, so definitely not a first.
