Oh well, 7th on the ladder aint all that bad for us.
You got Bill Burr!As a pale ginger I cannot endorse this bigotry

We'll finish above the Raiders now. Maybe Vegas was all an illusion and it didn't actually happen.
Wondering if DCE would like a couple of years in NZ

If the poor old Raiders concede 50 they'll know deep down it's season over. What a weekend, we're in the 8 and Vegas didn't happen!
This right here is why you don't make premiership evaluations in the first month of the comp. Canberra looked hot stuff in the first.2 weeks but are now clearly demonstrating that they are an edge 8 team at best. They are a high effort team and if they deviate from that, they can drop off very quickly. We owe them a hiding back at Mt Smart after the bye. Likewise, I don't think we can draw too much from Manly's performance tonight given the extreme circumstances underpinning this game. We demonstrated last week that they are still lacking the defensive steel to being a true premiership contender.
Weekes caught a ball, well done lad.

Who knew he was Billy Corgans’ (Smashing Pumpkins lead singer) half brother?!!!!

Add to that twelve men period.
The Raiders fade is a function of the team being exhausted and completely shot, look at the insane defensive load they had to carry before falling apart. They kept up their kick chase for most of that and were offensive in their defence.
I believe the fade came about because physically they hit the wall.
Unfortunately they might not even recover fully before their next match after a game like that. Give them a week off Sticky.
That saddens me that you had to explain who he was.
I saw a video, the other day, of people who had (apparently) never heard Creep, by Radiohead before.

Good- the Raiders have been getting away with murder in the ruck the first two games- good to see it being addressed.
You are denying the Raiders any agency here. Sure the sin bin period precipitated everything but they essentially gave up towards the end of the first half. They kicked the ball out immediately after the first try and the next two tries came straight off the kickoff. That's on the team. Any serious team looking to challenge at the pointy end of the season would find a way to overcome this adversity and get back in the game. I guarantee you if Penrith or Melbourne were playing tonight at 4pines, they would have found a way to win. Raiders by collapsing like this just proved that whilst they are a fair team, they are not quite at the level of the very top sides.
