Rd.25 v Raiders

[Murraymob1]

well if you are all feeling down just imagine if you where Souths or titans fans or worse still parra supporters some guys hoped they would win before there balls dropped to late now there banking of there sons.They may be grandfathers before they win
There will.be a dissection by coaching staff.But there was a big lot of bad luck also with feild goals 2 weeks running both times we could have had wins
But bad luck now could mean good luck when it matters Cleary is to good for it to not happen

Thought we were unlucky not to get a penalty for the bomb that Edwards dropped. Canberra player just backs into he legs, not contesting for the ball. They scored the next set.

watched that but he dropped it before contact

I’m not a conspiracy theorist but I have no doubt that we are “reffed” differently to other teams. The worst result for the nrl from a business perspective is us winning 5 in a row.
Not saying that it lost us the game either, but we have to be better.

And Nath Cleary is meant to be the best half in the sport. I know his forwards aren't doing enough but hes been very passive

Get Mary down here to sort him out or s#ck him off, one of the two might work.

Shouldn't matter, he got his legs taken out from under him while in the air.

The penalty we got in extra time was extremely soft. But if we get a penalty for the Edwards drop it doesn't matter.

 

[PennyPanthers81]

Swings and roundabouts. I agree.

They always rule on the first offence in this case he dropped it before contact

Dangerous play takes precedence I think. He didnt drop it either, it came off his leg.

 

[Murraymob1]

We can complain all we want about the ref .But it could be argued before half time the raiders where robbed simultaneously touching the ball is a try.We need to look as others have said at another forward on the bench and play him

 

[Chins]

The one on Dylan was fine he jumped like a spastic.
The ignored tackle on Jenkins earlier was ridiculous though

 

[Girds89]

Anyone blaming the refs is on the pipe. We lost that fair n square.

 

[Pjf04b]

Don’t we ever get a 50-50 call anymore? The bunker doesn’t even give us any!

Did you watch the game? Im highly doubtful Marto got to that ball first

 

[kinghippo]

We didn’t put it away and Canberra took it away.
Crazy play for them, let their fans enjoy.
Same as last week, we were in control but didn’t put the points on the board to go with the dominance.

You cant really tell if Smithies is actually grounding it though. The angles weren't right. He didn't look confident either.

To be clear I dont think the refs influenced the result much. Both teams copped some questionable ones.

 

[Port Panther]

Anyone think we might just need to change things up a bit it's all a bit predictable to my eyes .

Hard sport to play in 2025 with a 1 and 9 who offer no attack

 

[CCJohnC]

Dissapointing result after lwaeding again. I agree with a lot of the comments already made but no one has mentioned that we have lost both games on wet grounds.

 

[Thirsty Panther]

Its not all doom and gloom.
I'm as frustrated as the rest of you guys.
But we have taken the best 2 teams to extra time.
Admittedly we have lost those but gee we made lots of mistakes in the process.
To lose to a field goal rebound length of the field try is just nuts.
