R9 | Raiders 44-14 Knights @ Canberra | Sun 2.00pm

[Dave_]

We are a very frustrating team to follow. Getting out to a big lead then giving up has been part of our poor culture for years.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

Will be almost impossible to win this. The raiders have all the momentum and we have the dropsies. Will probably get 30 put on us in the second half

 

[Rod]

If we play like we did in the first 20 we'll win. Play like we did in the second 20 and we'll get done by 20. It really is that simple.

This is a carbon copy of last week, just cannot maintain intensity

 

[Dave_]

Is it me or is Uate pretty much always responsible for a try a game and often a match turning error. He is always good for a dropped bomb a game when we are well on top that leads to the other team scoring straight after.

Seriously over his incompetent hands.

It's not just you mate. I'm seriously over him aswell. Ever since we gave him the big bucks he's been sh#t.

He's got Jarryd Haynes laziness syndrome.

 

[NoSchitSherlock]

We need to cover getting short on defense down the right side on the line. Boyd needs to be out there for cover.

 

[aqua_duck]

I can accept errors if we're pushing the envelope and playing expansive football with long passes, offloads, etc but we're not, we're making absolutely schoolboy errors. The difference between us and a team like Souths is they're players don't make errors when they're grinding a team into submission

 

[Swarzey]

Half time couldn't come any sooner. Understandably we suffered to score off the two or three chances we had at the end of the field however, we need to toughen up on our left ede. That's how they're getting their points. However, Clydsdale is doing great. Great speed from hooker.

 

[aqua_duck]

Seriously we are f**ked

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

Yeah we are a basket case. When shot starts going against us we fall apart.

 

[aqua_duck]

Next bloke to drop the ball/give away a dumb penalty needs to be hooked just to make a point

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

Bring back Michael hagan. We need a coach who can coach to our shitty culture. Bennett is killing his reputation coaching us.

 

[aqua_duck]

Absolutely pathetic

 

[perverse]

What the f**k tackle attempt was that from Darius? soft as f**k.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

What the hell is going on.

well Tahu just went off... limping, but he always limps.

 

[K-Man]

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I'd rather support a team that's inconsistent and ill-disciplined, but actually plays some entertaining football.

Bring back Rick Stone.

We are so boring to watch, and yet we don't control the game well either and we lose our composure in a heartbeat, then never get it back.

Random guys at the pub were saying Knights were going to put 50 on them. I just laughed at 14-0 and said "Raiders will be in front by half time". Wrong by 2 minutes. Over it.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

Yeah, Bennett doesn't suit our culture. I think gids would make a good captain coach tbh

 

[macavity]

game plan: give it to me

 

[K-Man]

Yep it's going to get embarrassing. Is this really what we brought in Bennett for? So we can bore our way to a 12-12 win-loss record just like we used to before, but when we were great to watch at our best.

It's all so predictable. And once a team coached to not play any football starts dropping the ball and giving away stupid penalties, where do you go from there? We don't have the spark or the game management and awareness. We don't really have anything.
