31st min Raiders forward pass on the attack in the red zone. Very clunky. The six again calls are horribly unbalanced.

I've gotta say despite that mistake, I am really liking Seb Kris here. Real breath of fresh air

He looks like he's a natural left handed carry, but hoping he can still play on the right once Croker comes back

Leilua keeping us in the game here. If the Tigers had 12 men they'd be up by 18.

Where are those folks who wanted BJ back?

The Raiders are collectively playing real dumb. Yet still BJ is giving them a run for their money.

They have an obvious defensive weakness with Garner and the Jet - and we have Wighton on that side. Completel;y unable to get him the ball with any space. We should be attacking that channel, going away, then coming back to Jack. Those blokes should be making 3-4 tackles a set. So frustrating

Try off a kick feels like almost the only way today.

Get some bodies in motion ****! Where is there any signs of coaching on the attacking side of the ball? There is no plan or structure out there

36th min TRY RAIDERS to Jordan Rapana, following the George Williams kick. Finally, SOMETHING came off! George Williams converts from the sideline!

Raiders 6
Tigers 6

HALF TIME

Poor first half from Canberra, no composure, no patience in attack.

Hodgson finally starts passing off the deck and we look a lot better.

His two step then pass stifles us way too much

Despite a few balls that have gone to ground, George has looked very strong

His link up with Jack in particular looks like one of the few parts of our attack that looks fairly cohesive and likely too

Finally get there. Our attack been very out of sync. Have to give some credit to Tigers defense. They've been tough.

Makes a noticeable difference. Hoping he’s self-scouted and not had to be told
