2019 Grand Final V Roosters: Game Day

[Green Taipan]

Two ref dubious decisions cost us :-(

[InFernos_Raiders]

Appalling refs .. The first half call was bad enough but the second half six to go then ref changes his mind after a tackle is just mind boggling.
The refs changed the game. Disgusting

Five star refereeing performance

Robbed

Interesting to hear what cummins has to say about his reversal of the decision. Can you even do that? Or will he lie and say he never waived 6 to go.

Except for the fact that he's on TV waving it.

[Manbush]

The better team lost, both their tries came off the back of Bull

The first half call was, sadly, correct. That second half one was bizarre.

[Christos_Raider]

Devastated, can't deny the effort from the boys though

[Northern Raider]

Have to say Roosters celebrations very subdued.

[Makaveli]

Refs ripped teams off all year, hardly surprising is it

Was it correct? Trainer interfered with play, not the officials.

So proud. Outstanding performance from our team. Got at least 10 messages saying we were robbed. So typical for the referees to screw it up. Nrl, you have issues.

Two wrong decisions.

The rule book states referees, touchies and spectators touching the ball leads to the attacking team retaining possession.

Nothing about other team staff or a 14th man as using common sense that is a penalty against the offending team. With the Cummins and coach's son intepretation why wouldn't teams just throw a trainer into first receiver when they are attacking?

No idea, I changed channels in disgust after that they scored following that crap 6 again call

[nodrog]

Gutted. Absolutely gutted.
The raiders and the crowd were awesome though, I'll take solace in that.

[Makaveli]

Ben Cummins never liked him he's a **** of a referee

The better team clearly lost tonight.

[Goldcoast Raider]

I’ve put a hole in my wall, this was a **** discarse , honestly if you put money on the Raiders tonight you would be asking for your money back from the tab , the refs are absolute pieces of ****

[edwahu]

Proud of the team. This will keep us hungry.

Hopefully we can keep the lads together, because the Roosters surely will.

[yeh raiders]

He was phenomenal out there all night and made a huge impact in a big game, but Joey has to throw that pass.

[RedRaider]

Thanks for a wonderful season Ricky and the Raiders. You know we'll all be back next year.

[The Greenhouse]

Jack Wighton is named Clive Churchill medalist for 2019. His speech is drowned out by the booing of the Roosters fans. Ugly stuff.

[Begbie]

Jack! Bittersweet.

Classy

[Begbie]

Get Cummins up there to get an medal so we can fling rotten fruit and at him.

[Manbush]

I want to see Ricky’s press conference, happy to chip in for a fine.

[The Greenhouse]

A shattered Jarrod Croker climbs the stage with his co-captain Josh Hodgson. He thanks the loyal supporters who've made it to the game, and tells them to 'make sure you're back next year...this is just the beginning for us'.

The Raiders side files up onto the stage to receive their medals.

Next up is Ben Cummings, and the booing is as expected.

Whens its true, and its a grandfinal, you dont have to pay.

[The Greenhouse]

Sportsbet have announced that they will refund H2H bets made on the Raiders.

[Billy Walker]

That sucks! It is just the start of bigger and better things but it sucks because the 2019 Raiders deserved premiership rings. There is good reason to think we get a premiership or two in coming years but not all these lads will be part of it and they deserved it. I’ve questioned many of these guys over the journey but hard to fault a player tonight. Jack was brilliant but BJ, Croker, CNK, Sezer, Cotric and Raps were all outstanding. Lui had an unfortunate error but all the forwards were strong. It just was an effort that deserved a premiership result and it sucks that we didn’t get it. I hope this builds a resolve within that creates an empire! Nothing but love to Ricky, the players and all the supporters - classy effort Canberra!

[Johno]

Proud of the team and the fans at the game.

This really stinks, I mean really really smells.

The trainer flinched but didnt move, surely he could have moved out of the way.

Can anyone say why he was on the field on the 6th tackle?

The 6 again..it HAS to be brought up and not ignored, the final game of the year is..... decided by a ref.

Anyone surprised

[woppadingo]

Wow. Cordner didnt even thank the Raiders for turning up. Pretty poor form not surprising from a Sydney team

[Hong Kong Raider]

Ben Cummins - there was no way to explain what happened. Definitely six again. Can Hasler share Annelsey's number?

But BJ - although he had a great game - cost us the game - twice. One was his late pass, the other being out of position for the Roosters' try.

Wighton had a better 4 weeks than Munster and Keary. Should be Australian No 6.

We played very well to keep Tedesco, Keary and Latrell quiet.

Liu and Tapine are liabilities - I told you so.

Referee is the sole judge of a mutual infringement.

Viking clap going strong at the station
