Week 2 Finals: Parra v Raiders GAME DAY THREAD @ Commbank 16/9/22

[King-Gutho94]

I’m certain when ja came on the booing wasn’t for him. It was bc the Moses incident didn’t go on report and no penalty

Yes that was my thought as well. As it wasn't when Jake was on the field it was Moses being forced off by the ref or bunker.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Full credit to raiders fans though they always bring a friendly atmosphere whenever they play. And they stayed to the end. The green really stands out when they are bunched together.

I know we take the piss out of the Viking clap but there fans take it in good spirits.

There premiership drought is as old as me though 28 years and we do need a team to stick with us in that long premiership drought. We don't want to be all alone as the only team in the past 25-30 years without a premiership.

I wanted to say sivo was quite good.

Ba did good too. Thats the style we want to play.

And that was one of the best games rheed has put together. He did not get in the way and just fed the ball perfectly on a platter to the players who need it.

I dont think i even recall 1 crash play

 

[King-Gutho94]

Was the matto at first reciever passing to junior a super secret move we haven't seen that all year and unleash it in the finals.

 

[yy_cheng]

Loved the ba presser

He said the loss to penfers was on him and now we will play our way.

Lokking good

James Graham I will give some respect to on Triple M.
He is the best analyst on that station, and even being a former Bulldog and Dragon, he holds no grudges.
The rest of them I'm not so sure.

I'm still on such a high after tonight.
I've spent the past hour and a half on the phone since I got home to a sister and then a brother, talking about the game.
FFS, all I wanted to do when I got home was re-watch the game!!!
It's 12.23 am and I'm going to watch it now.

What a cracking night it was!!

I'm watching today and tomorrow and Monday.

 

[Rocket man]

That’s my understanding. He taps the ball forward whether intentionally or not and Mahoney makes a tackle simultaneously. Could not have been a penalty

I think we we're penalised for the same thing once. The referee explanation was he was not given the opportunity to regather before the ball hit the ground or something similar.

It doesnt matter what the rules are, these days its a referee/bunker lottery - they always find some spin to put on it, theres always some controversy

 

[Delboy]

Was in direct line with the pass Klein called forward, definitely wasn’t, was passed backwards and Klein wasn’t in line anyway. Don’t think I’ve seen that sort of pass called forward for a long time when it’s executed at speed.

Klein definitely reffed it differently after sending so many to the bin last week, possibly a bit gun shy after some media criticism. Great atmosphere and have to admit the Raiders supporters are a decent bunch, including the loud maniac next to me, was gracious when he left early.

 

[Avenger]

Massive penis too I've heard.

Biggest ćevap in Parramatta.

 

[Joshuatheeel]

Did I not say we will blow them apart? I just don't understand why people feared Canberra. Honestly would of been embarrassing had we lost.

Gould summed them up. They are capable of a poor performance and you don't know when it will come. They won't go to far.

We actualy where robbed two tries also. Sivo arm was always on that ball. Browns pass flat.

Ha ha, one of many predictions that is 50 50 each way!!

Your first prediction was we wouId lose week 2 and not score a point….

all you did is copy my prediction…..the first on here to predict we wouId win comfortably….

Copy cat!!!!! Ha ha!!

Brave Ricky.

Would have made top 4 if not for Injuries.

Just very brave Ricky very brave.

What a low gutted dog who refuses to see the bigger picture. Excuses, excuses, excuses.

 

[strider]

Biggest ćevap in Parramatta.

3.25 inches at least

 

[Parra Cheeses]

Good point, leaving Marata starting with Matterson to follow has been working a treat over the past month or so.

Would still like Brown and/or Cartwright to get a look-in on the bench - dare I say it might be time to use the old "rotation policy" on Jake's bench spot...

Certainly agree. If Mitch goes down push DB to half and Cartwright, Nukiore, Matto to 5/8

Na they were booing Loltrell. Because they all booed Adam Goodes too

Well done Parra. See what a home advantage brings.. Now go up to Townsville and play the Cowboys on their home track and you will get my respect if you win.

We are coming to get you

That was when I felt Storm win. I never once was frightened of the Raiders. Just an average footy side who had a soft run home.

Well done Parra. See what a home advantage brings.. Now go up to Townsville and play the Cowboys on their home track and you will get my respect if you win.

And then (with your respect in hand) we'll come back to our home territory and beat you guys in the big dance??

(OK - waaay too optimistic on my part. But it is clearly a GF matchup worth manipulating results to get!!)

Pretty sure Barlow scored off a crash play.
Big Red made a valiant attempt to tip him though

 

[lucablight]

Anyone else notice how Moses has improved his passing game? He didn’t have a money ball pass before but he does now.
