Re: 2019 Rd 10 V Rabbitohs: Game Day
These games have been fantastic for our young blokes who have really stood up. At the start of the season we were all very concerned about our depth, including the players on our bench.
Now we have hudson young and horsbra getting into personal battles with the elite, and we will have them coming off the bench! Very character building period of the season and ive seen nothing im too disappointed in.

I think if Bateman, Rapana and Leilua play then we win that one

2019 Rd 10 V Rabbitohs: Game Day
Once again, I was absolutely stoked with our effort and the result. I’m not going to read the gameday thread until tomorrow sometime because it’s probably filled with bitching and complaining and blaming of the referees, but as raiders fans, we should all hold our heads up high
This team is finals bound, and destined for great things

Good point simo.
I like the look of Young and Horsborugh balanced his aggression better too tonight I thought.

Definitely a great effort with our personnel. Just one of those games that can well end up being the difference between earning some home finals games.PigRickman wrote: ↑May 18, 2019, 9:38 pmNo doubt, but you're telling me we got into a semi against Souths and we have Tapine, Raps and JB back on deck (beej doesnt seem like he's in the picture) and you're not saying, we lost this by a bees dick and now they have to contend with us PLUS 3 of our best 4-5 players?Roger Kenworthy wrote: ↑May 18, 2019, 9:34 pmGotta be disappointed in a result like that. A club like ours isn't going to sustain success year after year, the competition isn't designed to support that. So when we have a start to the year as we have we really need to make the most of it, and we let that one get away.PigRickman wrote: ↑May 18, 2019, 9:28 pm Settle down guys, we just took a very good team all the **** way missing Beej, Raps, JB and Tapine.
That was a good hard game, won in the margins.
It sucks to lose, would have liked to win, think he would have if Croker just goes to the corner... but there was nothing seen tonight to suggest at our best, and WITH our best we cant beat them.
The top 3 starts to pull away from us with that loss which is my main frustration. Big game next weekend where we really need the 2 points to avoid falling back into the pack.
But yes for more patient supporters there are plenty of positives. I'm just of the opinion that sustained success is so tough for us that we need to make hay.

You’ll be disappointed. Now too much complaining about refs. Lots of positivity about how well we went. Really close to the top teams, just missing some key attack players. I believe like you we should be round of the team - a really top effort for the full game. Didn’t give up and kept trying until the hooter.

Horsburgh held his own against Burgess and played the longest stint of any bench forward. Ricky is doing a great job with him.

Yeah, all our forwards did a great job tonight. Papa and Lui led by example and Young and Horse looked like they had a zillion cups of coffee and some red frogs. I also thought Oldfield and Simonssen did some good work too.

By the way how good was Lui’s first stint tonight? In attack he did the tough stuff and continually found his belly. He was also really solid in defence.
Re: 2019 Rd 10 V Rabbitohs: Game Day
Hard not to be proud of the boys after that. Every single player can walk off the field and know they gave it everything. They matched it with the benchmark of the comp.
That last play, with the benefit of hindsight and slo-mo, should have went out the back from Hodgo where there was a 4 on 2 overlap.
P.s how good is Foxsports. Post game interviews from 4 Souths players and 0 Raiders. Hah!

Hudson Young was immense. I know he's getting a lot of well deserved praise here for his game today but i want to get in on that. Hell of a game from the kid.

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.
If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

In 2016 at this point we didn’t think we would make the finals. A lot can happen in the next few months. We looked very good tonight.

Hopefully can grab a couple of wins in the next couple of weeks and get into that top 4 a bit more solidly again.
I tipped the Raiders tonight. I suspect this is my fault.

Cracking effort. Last two weeks feel a bit like those 2016 finals losses to Sharks and Storm. At least this time we’ve got four months and three gun players returning to bridge the gap.

I think he's done a fine job. Does the hardest stuff, running hard lines and defending tight. And he does it well.

Re: 2019 Rd 10 V Rabbitohs: Game Day
We had our chances to win this game and couldn't get it done again, 1-3 over the last 4 and we're starting to fall down the ladder with the teams behind us finding form. Really needed to get the 2 points tonight instead of taking away a moral victory, given the quality of players we are missing a loss was always the realistic result but its still disappointing.
Re: 2019 Rd 10 V Rabbitohs: Game Day
wooooooooo hooray for 20 hours straight of rugby league
and Shorten lost the election... only thing that spoiled the night was a heartbreaking raiders loss, oh well!!! hopefully next week we destroy the hapless cowgirls.

Re: 2019 Rd 10 V Rabbitohs: Game Day
I’ve literally loved both of the last two games
Can’t think of too many times in my life I can say that about losses
It’s just so great seeing the team play defensively minded football. We’ve rolled through the hardest teams now, we keep playing like that the season will get a lot easier
Just need to not get complacent like we did in the manly game now

It’s only if the team now takes their foot off the pedal against the “lesser” teams that we’ll be in any trouble

Re: 2019 Rd 10 V Rabbitohs: Game Day
Garbage. We got up 12-nil, decided it was all too easy and got run down circa 2017/18. It’s the only time we’ve done that this year thankfully, and hopefully it’s a stark reminder for the rest of the season what happens once you stop taking your opponent seriouslydubby wrote:We weren't complacent against Manly.

Re: 2019 Rd 10 V Rabbitohs: Game Day
I absolutely loved the way we played our footy tonight. Key players out and everyone ripped in 100%. We’ve made it through the hard part of the draw and need to make it count over the next 4-5 weeks and if we can reproduce that effort we will win most of them.
I am hoping that this experience at this time of the season will only make us hungrier and harder and give us the grit and determination we need to get the wins when it matters at the end of the season.
I hope the team feels the loss but holds their heads high. We are in the mix this year.

Whilst the boys have greatly improved and they are staying in the battle most of the game. Maybe they might need a sports psyc revisit.

Re: 2019 Rd 10 V Rabbitohs: Game Day
Just got back from the game and after digesting the election result I haven't had a chance to read the thread. I strongly feel that taking the 2 penalties after we had squared at 2 all in the 1st half was a waste of possession and lost opportunity. We needed to go for tries. I think we lost it there.
It's a simple game; tackle, back-up, pass, hold the ball! What did I say? "Hold the bloody ball!!"
