2015 Holden Cup: Rd 19 V Sharks

[Raiders666]

Haha suck **** Cronulla...big defense from the boys

[julian87]

Well deserved try after some brilliant defence.

[The Greenhouse]

63rd min TRY RAIDERS to Jack Hickson! It's stunning, stunning defence from Canberra on their line, Williams then breaks up field and he passes to Hickson. He's under the posts. Woolford converts.

Raiders 20-10

[Raidersrawesome]

Nicely done

Absorbed all the attack from BS calls

[Northern Raider]

That was pretty special. Tre Williams has plenty of raw talent. Look forward to seeing how he progresses in the next couple of years.

[VictorTheViking]

Sharks fullback is quick

[The Greenhouse]

69th min TRY RAIDERS to Cameron Booth. Try Williams involved again in the lead up. Great defence from Canberra has been critical in what is shaping as a win. Tre Williams misses the conversion.

Raiders 24-10

[The Greenhouse]

75th min TRY SHARKS from dummy half to Jayden Brailey. Converted Clarke.

Raiders 24-16

[The Greenhouse]

Cleveland McGhie is man of the match. Tre Williams unlucky.

[Northern Raider]

Sharks fullback is quick

You would swear you were looking at a young David Peachey.

[Botman]

Sharks fullback is quick

You would swear you were looking at a young David Peachey.

Exactly what i thought

Raiders deserve to hang on here... *gulp*

[Raidersrawesome]

Why are they challenging it

It stops the clock

[The Greenhouse]

79th min TRY SHARKS to centre Curtis Scott. Having a Raiders captain's challenge. Look like they're just wasting some time. TRY awarded. Converted.

Raiders 24-22

[Botman]

They've got one, cant take it with you, might as well take a shot.

Now watch them score off a bad call

[The Greenhouse]

There's 1.09 left.

[Northern Raider]

Why are they challenging it

It stops the clock

They had to defend 1 set regardless. Gave them an extra breather.

[The Greenhouse]

80th min Sharks knock on! Sharks captain's challenge. DECISION STANDS.

FULL TIME

Raiders 24
Sharks 22

[Botman]

That'll get reversed, the sharks still alive

[Northern Raider]

Challenge but a blatant knock on

[julian87]

Jaden Clarke is so much like Owen Craigie.

[Botman]

Decision stands!
Wow, they almost always call that against the defender.
Great stuff

Much deserved win

[Botman]

Jaden Clarke is so much like Owen Craigie.

Fat ****, isn't he?

[Raidersrawesome]

Correct call. Hard to tell if he touched the ball

[Northern Raider]

Let in a couple late but overall that was an exceptional defensive effort by the Raiders. Held out under massive pressure so many times.

[greeneyed]

Fantastic defence Canberra!

[Travis]

Is Tre Williams related to Sam?

[greeneyed]

No.

[bonehead]

Jack?

[greeneyed]

No.

[Brewdle]

Tony?

[greeneyed]

No.

[reptar]

I hope that helps.

[Toviii]

No.
