Meninga and Daley with some incredible defence there!
And to all the people who doubted me, hello to them as well. - Mark Webber, Raiders Ballboy and Unluckiest F1 Driver Ever

I'm attacking in the right way, instead of just...attacking in the general direction. - Max Aaron (also eerily apropos for the Green Machine)

Wow! Why would you take off Steve Roach at this point? He's been having an incredible game!

This guy they're bringing on must be really great.

69th min Tigers get a penalty in front... a rebounded kick finds the Raiders in technical off side. Daley getting some medical attention on the sideline.

PENALTY GOAL TIGERS to Andy Currier from in front.

Kevin Hardwick is one of the great defenders of the NSWRL. I hope we can get through him.

7 mins to go Elias attempt at a field goal is foiled and Meninga smashes him! Now another attempt! IT HITS THE CROSS BAR AND BOUNCES AWAY! That would have sealed the Grand Final.

We're struggling at the moment to break through. This could be a real master-stroke from Ryan.

If he puts Michael Pobjie on we’re really stuffed.

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.

78th min TRY RAIDERS to Chicka Ferguson! O'Sullivan puts up the bomb, Daley regathers and throws an overhead pass to Ferguson! He steps inside once, twice and gets to the line! WHAT A TRY! Meninga converts! That'll be extra time!

Tigers 14
Raiders 14

It is all level after 80 minutes!

Those replacements by Balmain could be really important, fresh legs in defence...
