@canefan haven’t bothered reading the article, but I assume it refers to the Egan no-try.

That was honestly one of the worst calls I’ve ever seen.
He didn’t have complete control, it was partially knocked backwards but even then there was never any separation between ball and hand.

Someone should do the stats on how many points we are cheated out of per game, and in turn competition points due to these consistent dud calls against us.

Yup Egan's try. If we score that we have all the momentum. We had enough possession to win regardless, and our halves could have done more. But it is a gut punch to be denied in such a blatant way. Pretty much any other team in the comp gets the benefit of the doubt there. Its sickening

Yeah, it's been B/S years, and if you call it out you get labeled a whinger. It's like the Warriors get Williams as their own personal TMO every week while the rest of the NRL gets the bunker.

unlike the AFL in the NRL tonight's game is almost game of the round in Panthers v Melbourne.

Roosters v Souths tomorrow arguably bigger, and a possible GF preview.

Rest of the round pretty irrelevant.

Warriors scored immediately after the Egan try though. There was no material effect.

Warriors just didn't fire enough shots. I doubt the Phil Gould factor will make a difference.

Why won't sportsbet let me add "1 massive error by Justin Olam" to my same game multi?

mariner4life

Is Addo-Carr still the fastest man on the planet Gus you fuck head?

mariner4life

You will not see a better last minute and a half of any game ever. Unreal finish.

Bad night for the roosters. Well beaten by the bunnies and looks like they have lost Kearey for the season.

ACT Crusader

Good start from the Warriors. Playing direct.

Dice

Just 10 minutes in and Fonua-Blake has already run 62m. Adam Blair would need 3 games to get that.

ACT Crusader

So Raiders could be in some trouble here. Lost one player to injury and they have two others off with HIA.

Dice

RTS' positional play has been exceptional so far.

canefan

Warriors not quite good enough in a few moments. Maumalao poor defence allows the raiders a big gain that leads to a restart and a Canberra try. We need to keep it close, raiders only have 1 player on the interchange bench

canefan

We cough up the pill after just getting a set restart right on the raiders line, then the raiders come down and score under the posts. Getting ugly

Fixed

Dice

Fusitua's defense is so dodgy. No need to come in like that. He does it every game.

canefan

Warriors roaring back into the game. Of course we will fall short

RTS is a freak. His fitness level is insane.

canefan

Australians are dirty fucking cheats. That is all

canefan

Jeez we make things hard on ourselves

Dice

RTS is a legend. Give that man a statue.

Well done the Warriors.

This RTS fulla can play a bit.

But just on the Rapana dive, I've seen more than one try get ruled out due to a weak dive, stick arms out and losing the ball. Both loigue and rugby

Rapana drives in hard he scores.

Should never been given the chance. We secure the restart kickoff and its game over. Bloody heart attack warriors

Gunner

How bout them Warriors then?

Takes me back to the early 2000’s when the Warriors were famous for their miraculous comebacks.

Was saying to a mate when the Warriors were still 2 tries off hitting the lead, ‘at least these Warriors have some ticker and show some fight’ but didn’t think for a second they’d actually do enough to get the job done.

Wowee!!!!

The key thing about RTS is not that he doesn’t make mistakes, it’s that his workrate is incredibly high (reminds me of the great Bradley Clyde) and he is looking to make an impact with everything he does.

High work rate, does the simple things right and then the brilliance of the footwork. Great to watch.

Wouldn’t make a bad 2nd 5....

Ricky Stuart. Such a sour, bitter, angry little man when he loses.

I'm a Raiders fan from way back but have always thought Sticky was a piston wristed gibbon.

Love this shot of the try saver.

That’d be a red card in rugby for tackling in the air.
