Rnd 12 Raiders vs Bunnies

[canberra_raiders2k2]

They had sets where they went 80metres for a try. That was disgusting. Cannot believe how soft we played in defense. I started thinking our best defensive plan was to hope souths make an error, as we couldn't tackle.

I've never seen us play worse in defense.. No effort.

Croker needs to be dropped and I know some of you would gladly hold his dick but Sam Williams was hopeless. His another mick Dobson. Slow as f**king bat shit, no defense and predictable kicking game.

Also props for shillington for pushing burgess in the face lol.

When only 1 forward makes over 100m ( and he wasnt a prop ) your team isnt going to win.

Heres our props super efforts

Tilse 98
Shillo 85
TLL 44
Mataora 54

Add the fact we suck balls at defending

Well TBF none of the Souths props made over 100m either. Although TLL only having 5 runs is lazy, he should be easily over 10, same goes for Shillington.

That was one of the most disgraceful performances I have seen. There is no intensity and the defence is beyond a joke. Croker is terrible in defence - how much longer is Furner going to persist with him?? Williams is not much better and TLL is getting worse every week. Thompson is not a centre Furner FFS!!! Where is the pride in this team? Only players who can hold there heads high after that game are Fensom, Robinson, Berrigan, Lee and Pelo imo.

They dont need to when their dummy half and back row make over 100 each.

It was very poor go forward and then equally poor defence from our boys.

God last night was heart breaking. it has to be the coaching. these same kids were world beaters in Toyota cup. that ability doesn't disappear overnight. defence like that, from a team worth of NRL players who, apart from Waddell, would all get games with other teams, can only be down to the coaching.

it was one thing last year to be coughing up matches that we already had won. it's another thing altogether to be completely uncompetitive in defence.

it's almost enough to turn a generation of raiders fans into brumbies fans.

Playing at U20's level is a little bit different to playing consistently at NRL level.

There is a gulf of a difference between the 2 comps

They don't have a winning culture any more Raiders. They haven't since the 90's and it doesn't appear that they will any time soon.
