2019 GF | PREMIERS - Roosters 14-8 Raiders @ ANZ

[Babyface O'reilly]

Stick's so rusty on big games of late that we considered nicknaming him "Rusty". But there's already a decor-throwing Rusty in the NRL, so we're going with "Richard" instead. I hope the mighty Canberra Richards can overcome adversity to only trail the Sydney Sponsors by double digits on Sunday.

But the Raiders fans have got some loud/slow applause thingy they’re going to unleash on us. Our players are gonna get psyched out.

Hot tip: the horn and clap are played over the loud speakers to supplement our apathetic fanbase.
Fun fact: the clap audio was sourced from the standing ovation at the ESDRLFC 2015 AGM.

Our crowd is actually CGI. A terrific job from Weta Digital

I paid good money to be uploaded into the Raiders crowd matrix on Sunday.

Fine
I concede
You win.
Just another win to add to the Raiders enormous, unbeatable tally.

Yes, we win the adversity stakes. But the adversity mountain will likely be too high to climb, - a mountain almost as high as the pile of brand new Fords and Mitsubishis at the Tedesco family property.

All of corporate Sydney is red/white/blue as the other thread states while the Raiders 17 are currently standing in the aisle of a Murrays coach on their way to sharing four rooms at the Ibis Budget in Campbelltown.

The comfort and pampering in one of Politis' mates hotels will have us unprepared for game day.

The Raiders will be angry and battle hardened from the discomfort of their bus trip and the added challenge of dodging the local needle-wielding degenerates in C-town.

I just phoned Russell Crowe to ask him.....

Apparently screams, smashing sounds and a line drop are the answer to that particular question

 

[Lambretta]

I voted for Canberra because Brett Mullins wants them to win

By afternoon we'll have played our grand final. The pinnacle of the Raiders in this century will have transpired with only a few barely conscious witnesses in attendance.

Its crazy. I should be doing my job but I can't focus. Everytime I turn the TV on, the first colour I see is lime green. We're supposed to have checked out a month ago but we're still in it somehow.

Canberra channeling their inner QLD with Josh Hodgson "struck down by a bug"

Even as a Panthers supporter living in Canberra, I'm finding it hard to keep my focus on my work.

Wait til the nerves hit properly about Friday evening.

You’re reading all editions of newspapers. There’s still the GF edition of Big League to get through. Yeah, work’s a lost cause.

Last Friday in the hotel room was bad enough.

We are officially underdogs
Gonna be a huge achievement to stop the all conquering Green Machine
I give us no chance tbh

Welcome...

Would look exactly the same if Canberra were playing Storm or Broncos (and Broncos were good).

 

[nick87]

Have barely done a f**king thing and the week is half way done
