I think that game showed Ricky's cleverness as a coach. He knew that they had no chance to win no matter how well they played so he rested some of his best
5 of those penalties were mandatory. So in the area of discretionary calls it was 7-2 to the Raiders.One of the positives of the 6 again rule is that you can very rarely argue against penalties any more because most of the discretionary calls result in 6 again and TV broadcasters don't have the itme to analyse them.
There have been a fair few instances like last night where one team has dominated penalties and the other 6 agains. Smells like game management.

You guys won the score count, so it all evens up I guess.5 of those penalties were mandatory. So in the area of discretionary calls it was 7-2 to the Raiders.
It's just as much a lack of adaptation to the new rules. We got by last year as teams were still working things out resulting from a mid season rule change. Now, all opponents have had close to a full offseason to change things up, and we're still bashing it up the middle and kicking it straight down the fullback's throat every set. We're losing both the territory and possession battle on the back of a game plan where the forwards desparately need a breather when there isn't one to be had, and the resulting fatigue contributes to the second half capitulations. The back 5 are nothing to write home about, currently but they hardly get a chance to shine with how the ball is distributed in attack. Their defence is another issue altogether.
The season is a write-off imo, and it needs to be one in the hopes that Stick realises that grinding isn't going to win you a majority of games anymore. Tactics and personnel need to change as a result.
Goodbye Joseph all the best at your new club.
