2009 Rd 1 V Wests Tigers: Game Day and Post Match

[GreenGuy]

I also hope that the decision to take the 2 points when we had them rattled doesn't come back to bite us.

[thickos]

.... and we are back on the field.

Come on Raiders, a win on the road would be an epic way to start the year

We have to be worried that the possession will even up though

To those who aren't watching - It's basically the backend of 2008 all over again.

Campese is on another planet.

My boy Thurling is hitting the line, driving the legs, carrying defenders and looking to get quick play the balls away. My step son Purts hasn't had much of a chance as Turner seems to be intent on killing all momentum, but scored a try the only way he knows how to, by trailing the ball at every opportunity.

Herbert really needs to lift his game. He's not taking up any responsibilities to distribute and his defense (Shoulder charge on Tuaki 5 out from the line?!) is lacking. The holes between Monas and Herbert have to be addressed. The Tigers have found atleast 3 clean breaks down that edge.
