2020 R17 Sat - Raiders 6-18 Roosters @ GIO

[Sparkles 2001]

It's fairly accurate how the table sits now, raiders aren't a top 4 team

f**k imagine being stuck in a car with Bwaith. Think of the dribble levels he talks in a professional setting, then think what it’s like when he’s got someone trapped in a car with him.

“There’s numbers right if you go there quickly”

“he is a player...”

I’m concerned for Ricky Stuart’s health after watching the press conference on fox sports news this morning. He was truly out of breath and struggling with his words. He probably should see a doctor.

 

[Captain Apollo]

only semi was better

Semi is no longer in the game though is he? So your answer is not relevant as the question referred to "in the game", which he is not.

Just life as a raiders fan

I watch the 19 GF in review on fox last night and Robbo came across as a smug c**k face on those controversial moments that favoured roosters.. winners are grinders in his case.

He is and yeah exactly

To be fair robbo clearly stated off field in regards to the first 2 points.

Don’t disagree , was a fair wank though haha

Agreed our attack is very limited

Listen! I'm working through some things at the moment!

I can't think of any player that uses any combination of speed, strength and footwork to break a line like James Tedesco does. The Sonny Bill Williams return was a huge distraction and took any focus/pressure off the other Roosters players who were all great tonight.
Their defence is the best I have seen in the modern era and they play an attractive style of footy. What a great 300th for JMoz.

The Raiders stretched the Roosters but just lacked a bit of polish in the big moments. It was great to see Wighton running the ball more. I hope Papali isn't on the sideline for long.

Thought the Raiders attack stunk actually. Halves going sideways cramping the edge for room instead of straightening up the attack.

Jack barely ran it- kept dishing a crash ball off to Croker at the line instead- who is exactly the wrong target for that sort of ball. If you must pass to Croker, go early so he has some space to use his agility a little bit, as at his best he slides through a gap that doesn't seem to be there. he can't break through a tackle to save his life though.

If the first half effort could have been carried into the second half it might have been different. The first Tedesco try was also incredibly soft. You can't leak cheap early points like this against good sides.

I just want to see him get booed on to the field.. followed by getting smashed 1st run

Does it include the amount of times Cronk touched himself about SBW's return?

Nah, it was shown in a G-rated time slot

Croker didn't have the best game and Wighton had a mixed game, but you could see what Wighton was trying to achieve in his play. The idea was right, it was the execution that let them down. Losing Papali didn't help, his surges would have made those plays easier with more time/room. Next week should be an easy game to work on their set plays though .

Looked like he had emphysema.
