And to think we could have had matchwinning field goal kicker Lachlan Lewis... at 5/8. Wonder why he never got a chance? No I don't.

Teams coming out now, first the Roosters. 9C in Canberra... 2C is the apparent temperature. Now the Viking Clap! Here comes the team, led by Josh Hodgson! Very hardy crowd in attendance.

He isn't a particularly skilful player but you can't fault his effort. He really puts in.

7th min Raiders have started well, getting a couple of penalties in a row as well. They're going to attack in the red zone!

A penalty on the ten. 4 hits ups under the posts and then a kick for the wing.

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

10th min TRY RAIDERS to Jordan Rapana. It has been all Raiders in the opening stages. Line wide open! Sam Williams converts from the sideline.

Raiders 6-0

LOL at Lui. If you're going to run straight at the defense make sure it's not Napa and Radley.

We are absolutely rolling the Roosters at the moment. Won't mean anything when that 70th minute rolls around though.
