Re: Is this last straw for anyone?

It's not, no. The refs didn't rob us of the game. We had the majority of the ball and more than enough chances, but we didn't take them. It's disappointing that we're taking the easy option of blaming the officials, instead of looking inward and asking how we can be better. There are plenty of area...

Re: Is this last straw for anyone?

I don't see how the ball freakishly hitting a trainer can be linked to the shadowy NRL conspiracies hinted in the early posts in this thread. It's a completely dumb piece of ill-luck. But the actual application of the rule was correct. Unlucky for us- yes. Unfair- no. It's just a rule. I don't poin...

Is this last straw for anyone?

Before the game I was chatting to my cousin and said the Refs better not * us! Just trying to compute everything the last couple days and i'm still fuming, I've always felt the Raiders seem to get the rough end of the stick more often then not and to have what happened is sickening. For a long time ...

I stopped caring a while ago, while I used to hang on the injury reports, team line up and weekly news in the last couple years I just check NRL.com on Thursday and then see when the Raiders are playing.

Re: Has anyone else noticed this about Croker?

He's very good at getting to his stomach on those runs, he gets there quickly and initiates the milking very quickly so the perception is he's being held down longer. He's incredibly agile so when he gets hit, he just gets himself spun into a position where he can get into it. It's in its own way a...

Re: Has anyone else noticed this about Croker?

So Jarrod Croker gets an occasional penalty for being held down. Not to mention all the penalties he doesn’t get for being obstructed in the chase. And there’s a whole thread about it? I’ve now seen it all. Ridiculous. What is rediculous is that you as a forum owner will see an issue with someone p...

Re: Has anyone else noticed this about Croker?

Yeah completely agree and have seen it without a doubt. He does get a few soft ones our way but if he doesn’t get it then obviously it creates a slow play the ball so it’s semi-risky move really. They generally don't want a quick play the ball when most of the forward pack are ambling back to the r...

He does successfully milk a lot of penalties. But he also whinges at times where a quick play-the-ball would be the preferred option to an unsuccessful milk. He is quite the cow. Yeah agree, on Friday there was a point where he did infact get a quick play the ball and Jacky got confused and the bal...

This is something I noticed years ago and told a friend about it and we laugh about it weekly because it happens pretty consistently. When the fullback or winger finishes their kick return run Croker from time to time will step in and take a run from hooker, this almost every time either results in ...

Re: We have two five-eighths

I think Austin needs to focus more on getting at least a couple steps in before passing.. put the defense in two minds. His catch and pass is very poor imo, it's like a lobbed pass to the next player like something you'll see in junior footy.
