Tigers all over them. Starting to smell like 2019 climbing into fourth to ambush the minor premiers with a rested team.....,,

Had dinner guests tonight, but was keeping an eye on the live score. I'm so proud of the baby Raiders! What a great job!

Watching the replay now. Oof. The reffing is garbage, and there's still fifteen minutes to half-time. We're playing very fun though.

They'd be up by more if they could kick worth a pinch of ****

Honestly, watching other teams this year has just made me so grateful for Croker, it's genuinely infuriating seeing so many misses

I agree. Have no idea why Parra got that ball back.

5 tries to 4 and the Tigers only lead by 2.

THE IMPORTANCE OF A GOOD KICKER.

I'm still on our replay. We are looking very good. Lots of fun footy.

I'm still torn about if we want the Tigers to win this or not... Penrith V Bulldogs was basically a training session so they will be coming in fit and ready, plus we always find a way to lose to them...

Just watched the Team song - those young guys still had plenty of energy to do the song with heaps of passion. What a terrific game and great result. I’m especially happy for Sammy as he has been a Raider through and through his whole life. A dream come true for him. 💚💚💚

You 100% would prefer to come top 4. A chance of earning a home prelim final and you avoid having to play Panthers/Roosters away in second week (if you beat the Sharks).

It’s a no brainer.

Para have basically had every advantage this year and still haven't been convincing in getting into the top 4

We had to rely on Wests Tigers to win and it came down to Will Smith...

Go away 2020.

Eels win 28-24. Poor ref decision with 2 minutes to play to say the ball was passed forward by Tigers when it clearly went backwards along the ground. Anyways 5th place to the Raiders in season 2020 and we have the Sharks at home next week.

He got better the longer the game went
Natural replacement for Sutton. Easy and done.

Does anyone know what the call was there? Why did Parra get the ball back?
