aside from handling issues, there were two major problems I saw for Canberra.
When defending, they had players lying all over the ruck, Cronulla's dummy halves scooted at the gaps all day and made easy meters and meant their forwards didn't have to work so hard in attack, preserving their energy for defence.
No game plan in attack for the 4th and 5th tackle. Not once, ever, did the Raiders look to threaten the Sharks defence. their service from dummy half was slow and their was just no game plan in attack.
Their tries were from a loose ball and a kick which Pomeroy was a bit too lazy at catching (thought he had it covered). Croker made that kick look like a million bucks when it was really just plain snot.
