Huge Gamble

We did a Joey style trick shot or something to catch them out. I don't think we're a field goal to win the game in extra time kinda team.

He's one that hasn't dogged it today

This is our GF.

 

[K-Man]

This is it. This is the moment. We need to come at them big time.

 

[K-Man]

It's all about the kick-off now. SWITCH ON. Do not even think about anything but protecting that ball from the short kick. Get Dom up there. Focus.

 

[Tom155]

FFS Hold out boys

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

Should have kicked it out

 

[Alex28]

Never in doubt.

 

[Tom155]

You guys still alive?

 

[perverse]

You guys still alive?

I can't do this 3 more times. We need to be better next week.

 

[Tom155]

Won despite all our dickfingers

 

[aqua_duck]

Ultimate get out of jail there, we positively did not deserve to win that, if you look at the stats the raiders edge us in every category

Hangin' by a thread

 

[Woody90]

I don’t know if I’m happy or angry.

Did not deserve to win that. We’ll get smashed next week but good to win a finals game.

 

[Tom155]

It worked out barely but Phoenix going the wrong way at the end there about ended me

I don't think that's necessarily the case. We looked very very nervous today. Big occasion, at home and everything to lose against a team that was willing to play finals footy from the first whistle. There will be a lot less pressure next week in many respects.

 

[Tom155]

How lucky are we to have Ponga even hurt he's incredible

 

[Zoidberg]

Haven’t read the thread since half time.
I had tears in my eyes when we were on top in the 2nd but we couldn’t keep it going and my heart has been racing for half an hour.

 

[Alex28]

Week 2 of the finals. What’s there to be unhappy about?
