Media will probably still pump the Raiders as a contender but this game and last weeks demonstrates that they are a side with serious defensive frailties. They're just lucky they've come up against two teams who don't know how to close out a game.
Dolphins had a few forward injuries leading up to half time. It was going to catch up with them towards the end of the game. Reminded me of that game against Canberra we had in 2021 where we were trailing 25-6 but came back and won in the second half because Canberra had lost their entire bench.
maybe it is the crocodiles/dangerous animals that make them so fast in QLD. I guess I'd have to be quick if I was being chased by a croc and my life depended on it.
