Love me some Viking Clap. Sounded and looked fabulous on the TV.

The Cowboys come out, led by Johnathan Thurston. There’s not a bad group of Cowboys fans in the away bay. Marshall Chalk sounds the horn. Now the Viking Clap! Here comes the team! Cowboys kick off!

Interesting bench. Two impact spines and a forward that Ricky won't use.

4th min TRY RAIDERS to Jordan Rapana, off a Sam Williams kick to the try line! No conversion Croker.

Raiders 4-0

That might actually be the try of the round. Widderstein had hold of Rapana's leg and Rapa just hopped, turned, and planted it.

Darn, hit the post.

Croker’s kicking has looked nowhere near as assured this season.

The fact they didnt run it towards him at all that set speaks volumes
Cowboys look VERY keen to get it out toward him

Cowboys player failed to take the pass, it bounced off his chest pretty much straight into Croker's hands, and as Croker stepped sideways his knee gave way.

They've strapped it very heavily and he's still out there, but I am very worried.

The most important thing in this game is that Cotric gets a try and maintains the streak. Only thing worth saving in this season!
