NYC Match Preview: Raiders v Tigers

After a come from behind win against the Melbourne Storm, the Canberra Raiders NYC team are heading into this week’s match with the Wests Tigers looking to secure back-to-back wins for the first time this season.

“They are a really well drilled side and getting a comeback win over a team like the Storm gives us a lot of confidence” last week’s man of the match Brett Solomon said.

“The boys stuck together and our structure gelled as a result. We also kept the negativity out because we knew that mistakes were going to happen but we just rolled off them and moved on to the next job and kept going.”

Where are Lewis and Croker?

Broken hand and shoulder injury respectively.

Any word on when they'll return to playing?

[The Greenhouse]

Teams are on the field, it is not raining, but there's a bit of wind and dark clouds around. Wests Tigers kick off, we are underway!

[BrisbaneRaider]

Where are Lewis and Croker?

Broken hand and shoulder injury respectively.

Any word on when they'll return to playing?

Round 8-9 for both apparently.

[The Greenhouse]

6th min Canberra Raiders defence holds the Tigers out; they were over the line, but held up and pushed back.

[Dr Zaius]

Where are Lewis and Croker?

Broken hand and shoulder injury respectively.

Thanks

[The Greenhouse]

13th min Raiders receive a penalty for being tackled in the air. And now another gets them to 30m out from the try line.

[The Greenhouse]

14th min Raiders kick towards the in goal is knocked on by the Wests Tigers. Raiders scrum just 10m out from the try line.

[The Greenhouse]

15th min Brenko Lee knocks on over the line, just can't quite keep the grasp on the ball just before it was planted.

[Dr Zaius]

I assume that McIlwrick is related to Killer?

[The Greenhouse]

18th min Raiders force a line drop out on the Wests Tigers through a Brenko Lee grubber. The Green Machine ran almost 100m in one set, after an error from the Tigers.

[Rick]

Lee is very busy out there

19th min TRY RAIDERS Cameron Booth goes over in the corner. The referee says it is held up, but Canberra is making a captain's challenge. It's clearly a TRY. Decision overturned on the video. Ballard cannot convert from the sideline.

Raiders 4-0

[The Greenhouse]

21st min Brett Solomon mishandles the kick off and it goes off his hands over the dead ball line. Line drop out.

[The Greenhouse]

22nd min TRY WESTS TIGERS to Matt Woods, lock and captain for the Tigers. It's scored near the posts, an easy four pointer off the back of the Raiders' error. Converted.

Wests Tigers 6-4

[greeneyed]

I assume that McIlwrick is related to Killer?

Brother.

[Johno]

Anyone watching?

22 minutes in and I'd say we have made 15 mistakes, Brenko Lee thinks he's Jonathon Thurston, sadly he's nowhere near.

The guy won't make first grade,hope I'm wrong though

[The Greenhouse]

27th min Thomas Cronan cannot handle the bomb from the Wests Tigers and another line drop out is forced on Canberra.

[T89]

Does anyone know if you can buy this Holden Cup jersey anywhere?

[The Greenhouse]

28th min Brenko Lee penalised for a high tackle, while defending the try line. There's nothing much in the incident. Wests Tigers on attack in the red zone.

TRY WESTS TIGERS in the eastern corner to Tom Satterthwaite. Matt Woods converts from the sideline.

Wests Tigers 12-4

Brenko Lee on report, which is absolutely ridiculous.

[The Greenhouse]

34th min Raiders receive a penalty for a strip, and they will attack from near the 40m line.

[The Greenhouse]

35th min TRY RAIDERS to Jordan Aiono after a Speechley kick pin balls off the Wests Tigers' feet. There is a captain's challenge, but the TRY is confirmed. Jordyn Ballard fails to convert after the long high kick gets blown off course by the wind.

Wests Tigers 12-8

Wests Tigers kick off is well out on the full. Penalty for Canberra on the half way.

[Johno]

Have we always had the blue flash of colour on the front of the shirt...upper chest ?

I like it!!!

Go Brenko!! Lol

[The Greenhouse]

39th min TRY RAIDERS to Brenko Lee. Wests Tigers are complaining about some obstruction, but there's no captain's challenge left for them. There's no obstruction in any case. Ballard's conversion attempt sprays to the left of the posts.

Wests Tigers 12
Canberra Raiders 12

All level at HALF TIME, though the Raiders have scored three tries to two.

[Raidersrawesome]

There is a game day thread for the U20s match

[Johno]

Sorry mate!

I can't see a link though

[marcofski]

Can brenko kick goals, he seems to be doing everything else.
