How are the raiders going? I left the NRL after last weeks refereeing debacle, enjoyed watching the Edmonton triathlon tonite

They have tried man. They just have a few that let them down every game.

They've been outplayed by the storm. Too many errors and a few soft tries

Thats good news for us, we could use some of those.
How about a trial?
That's a little out of the box.. But it just might be crazy enough to work
I know it's a little crazy, but it could be used to figure it which players are good and which ones are bad.
Gina Riley: Oh, come on, John. That’s a bit old hat, the corrupt IOC delegate.
John Clarke: Old hat? Gina, in the scientific world when they see that something is happening again and again and again, repeatedly, they don’t call it old hat. They call it a pattern.

The Equaliser 2 was awesome. You should watch The Equaliser first though. It’s on Netflix.
I recall watching the Equaliser as a TV show back when I was a lad in school
Denzel Washington plays the lead and is amazing. Highly recommended.

Yep where are the people saying Hodgo will get more respect from the refs?

That was always going to be a penalty... **** knows what he was doing there... If this is Hodgson under the stress of the captaincy lets give it to someone else who has actually earnt it... Go for Papa or Soliola.... He doesn't seem to have it :(

Far out why take the two. As a Raiders fan the storms professionalism is indistinguishable to magic to me.

70th min Another penalty for the Storm and Josh Hodgson is upset with the elbow to the head. He went back in for a second attempt... and it is a penalty for a flop. The referee doesn't listen.

PENALTY GOAL STORM to Cameron Smith from in front. Cameron Smith now rested.

Storm 44-10

Wow... The effort there to get the ball after it was lost.... Guys... wake the **** up.... Trust me we are just as over it but you're actually getting paid to produce this ****, we are doing it for free (and in most cases giving up our limited spare time and spare cash to support you).

The refs do listen to Hodgson more. Not that it makes much difference. I think it just takes longer because they're stopping to figure out his accent.

Yeah, that’s a real shot. Hooking two eighty minute players because they really don’t need them anymore.

Recruit some more halfbacks to play hooker, obviously.
