Raiders just had to turn their home record around for 2010 just before they play the Cowboys In saying that Im happy Canberra won though.
I am still fuming over that bullshit call the refs made when Gordon was jumping for the ball. It was total bullshit and caused Canberra to score. Lewis tried too hard in the last 5 minutes. Was pretty disappointing... really hoping Elliot sees the light now and finally drops that useless **** Purtell.
Really? Hows about the bullshit call when the Raiders were hot on attack and Jennings stripped him? Gordon took his legs out from underneath him. Regardless of weather or not he was contesting for the ball
Bullshit he took his legs out from underneath him. Gordon was going for the ball and only had eyes for the ball. There was another dubious call but I can't remember which one it was which lead to a try. I am normally easy going on the refs and normally say that it was the players but that was disgraceful. AND NOT TO MENTION ADRIAN PURTELL IS SHIT!
I'm not doubting for a second that he was challenging for the ball. But he fair took his legs out from underneath him
What other bullshit calls can you think of? I'm thinking of randomly giving a penalty try for something that hasn't even been a penalty of late. How about the blatant Jennings rake to slow down the play the ball that was borderline professional foul? Or what about giving a random penalty while Canberra were on attack because Monaghan mouthed off. Led directly to a try.
You had a bitch about the kicking out during scoring tries, now you change your mind? It's been a penalty many times before, they missed a couple in recent weeks, but the rule is there. Monaghan mouthed off at the ref, their is also a rule against that. The tackle was dominant and he's allowed to hold on longer for it.
If it is an 8 point try each time from now on I am happy with it. But I can guarantee if Slater or Hayne do it it won't even be a penalty.
Agreed. Lack of Walsh was probably the main one. We did alright with Coote but I would like him back now. Purtell needs to go. Elliot won't drop him though because it is too close to the finals.
