Tense GF, compulsive viewing... neither team deserved to lose TBH
Hate the Roosters, but losing Aubusson, the (IMO) ridiculous binning of Cronk, the (IMO) poor selection of Friend, and some strange decisions along the way meant they were up against it...
Similarly, the (IMO) ridiculous changing of the 6 again was crucial - Wighton clearly thought he had 6 (and he was a beast generally), and Canberra on balance were slightly better (largely IMO because of the Aubusson and Friend issues above) but didn't take their chances... Leilua's desire to initiate contact might haunt him... Papali'i is so hard to handle, but they are a good side... so happy that CNK has been able to show how good he is...
I think they probably got the 6 again call right in the end? But you can't change your mind mid-stream... terrible, a good reason not to have two refs... of course if it wasn't 6 again and the Raiders score, the Roosters are blowing up...
Roosters (ironically) remind me of the great Canberra sides - defend like demons when not at their best, and then from nothing can strike with the talent in their backline - Keary, Mitchell... just classy move
