Was always a bridge too far, but a brave effort all the same boys.

#Three plays #six. Another must win game you'd expect. They dwarf our for but against are almost identical.

Didnt I read that King-Togia was replacing Flanno at 5/8. Team list has Bird playing there and the debutant at #14. Flanagan just refuses to leave Bird where he belongs, Ressies.

Raiders 12, Dragons Zilch - 34 minutes to go.

No LKT must be hurting them

Looks like no finals for either Flegg or KOE unfortunately

I was out for both games, bugger to lose both.. I feel fine because we won first grade lol.. but yes Flegg is definitely toast and NSW Cup wont be far off.. they have had a sh*t of a draw.. I think they are being punished for some of those crazy last minute losses from earlier in the year.. they shouldnt need to be beating all the best sides to sneak into the 5.

I did notice Marshke had gone off very early though, I wonder if he reinjured that damn hamstring.. ill to find out.. we had no coverage for that.. they threw HFinau to fullback and ran 4 forwards basically from the bench.

I thought JF would have been a good show this year but pretty disappointed with their season, I always thought KOE would struggle once NRL started to take players, but I suppose thats what its all about. Anyway lets hope we have a better showing in these grades next year.

Haele to fullback is cooked

How did horsborough go yesterday ,

 

[KogarahWarrior]

Wtf Haele actually went alright at fullback?? He had 23 runs for 211m. Is he Keano Kini now?

KW, maybe he is the new Damien Cook, but in reverse??
Average hooker, but found his proper home at fullback.

I think he started there, but watch the first try in the highlights to see why he might not have stayed there , Tamale is there later on in the game, I have no idea who was playing where, Marshke went off also.. it was a hot mess... and tbh it would have been really difficult to take on such a good team with the 17 we had.

Was another try there where Tonga seemed to miss an easy tackle on the tryline, but maybe it wasnt his man? Let me know what you guys think, the video quality isnt great though.

Haha Stats lie

Shit who were the 3 Dragons arm grabbing for Raiders last try?

There was a few there, Shereb was at ctr, Glover missed him, Rava missed him and Tamale went low for some reason as he fell over the line.

The other try thru the middle was Tonga, Muhleissen and Tamale again, not sure who to blame on that one.. he went over all of them... but just overall a lot of gassed and broken players left in that game, everyone playing out of position.

Looking at the draw for the last two rounds of the competition for KOE Cup, the teams competing with us (7th - 28 points) for 4th and 5th spots (Warriors, Bulldogs and Panthers) - if we win both our matches against Jets and Eels we should be in the top 5.

Bulldogs (5th - 30 points) play Warriors (4th - 31 points) this week and Panthers (6th - 29 points) play the Raiders who are coming 1st. If we win and Bulldogs lose we are equal on points but better on F/A. If Panthers lose we leapfrog them.

All we need to do is win and hope one of Dogs (and hope they don't flog the Eagles in the last round if they win that one) or Panthers lose at least one match. Alternatively the Warriors need to lose both matches.

So 2from2 and were in with a shot.. the game is saturday so I suppose a player could play and back up as 18th man on sunday.. but prob we wont take any risks.. the NSW Cup side is playing busted and missing quite a few thru injury.. will be a hell of an ask to beat the jets.. its got NSWRL coverage also.
