Why did we not go for a drop goal there? Unbelievable, but also very believable given the attention to detail evident in this game.

It's all squared up. Lazy stuff from us. No attempt to keep him out wide. No Croker from Milford.

LOL Canberra score in the corner and Fusitua lets the Canberra player run around close to the posts for the crucial conversion. Like, literally lets him do it.

Lol what an ending !

Raiders doing everything they could to not be in position for a drop goal, and the Warriors showing no effort in trying to stop it on the last play of the match

Stupid play = lose the game. Hope they learned something.

Such a dominant back end of the game only to be undone by a couple of lazy moments.

Scores tied, 5 seconds on the clock, and of the 13 rocket scientists on the field none of them attempted to put pressure on the drop goal.

Classic Warriors :lol: That flop penalty near the end was ridiculous, there was absolutely no point!!!!

Oh well, at least they get a second chance.

Fusitua actually waving the Raiders player around to score behind the posts has to be one of the most ridiculous things I've seen on a rugby league field. I can't even imagine what must be going through a kid's head at a moment like that. Surely the fact you're playing a game of rugby league and the opposition need a converted try would be fairly close to the front of your mind though.

Well, that last 6 minutes was humorous. Halfback decides a field goal is a silly option so the team goes away from the sticks and looks for glory plays... halfback gives up a dud penalty... Raiders go around the outside to score, #5 runs casually along the line making no attempt to stop the attacking player who then jogs around without pressure towards the posts... next set, #3 knocks on knocking down a pass, if he falls on the ball there's a scrum and at least 10 seconds wasted, instead he casually strolls up and lets Canberra pick it up and make a bust... last play, clearly set up for a field goal, only Havili has the brains to realise it, the rest sit back and slide on their line. Dopey stuff.
