After a rough start we are in the game. Souths showing why they are contenders for the GF with some outstanding defence. Sam Williams execution on the tackle 2 kick was awful but with the speed of the Souths line a couple of kicks in behind might give the defence something to think about.

Someone needs to tell Blake Austin he is 100kg, I've never seen a bloke so big be so weak in defence, just awful. Sam Williams needs to aim for some repeat sets early in the second half, get some fatigue into Souths, game starts after 70 minutes if we hold the ball and make our tackles.

We are not going to get that many tackles in their 20 again. Time for the old Canberra to come back and score long range tries.

I think half the time he has a plan, picks the footy up and looks around to find the rest of the team in another time zone.
That's a big part of the problem. We're really predictable with a distinct lack of decoys and inside options when we're attacking the line.

Just cut out dumb ass mistakes, kicking straight into arms on 2nd tackle, downfield straight to opposition player, losing scrum feed, tackling fresh air.

The stats reckon Jnr made 82 meters. I must be watching another player because I wouldn't have thought made anywhere near that.

41st min Brad Abbey follows a Sam Williams kick... and if he took it... it would have been a try. Knocked on.

49th min Brad Abbey knocks on the kick through from the Rabbitohs in goal. Line drop out forced on the Raiders.

Line drop out goes 60m... and the Rabbitohs knock on first tackle!

Well milked by Blake. Ran straight at him then flopped on the ground.

Is it just me or is it obvious that the bunnies when they are tackled they are actively trying to break it but we just take the tackle and play the ball???
