Even full strength we are so far behind the top clubs. It's very painful and has been for a long time.

To be fair I think we aren't going too bad in the ruck. We are making good metres, Hodgson is clearing the ball early. We haven't had a lot of ball because of penalties and general incompetence but I don't feel like the halves have that much of an excuse here

Sucker, I'm listening to it on the radio and fell asleep for most of the first half

I just can't be bothered

Raiders kick off to start the first half. Mid range kick, but the Sharks regather easily. Now the Sharks produce an early error.

Wade Graham is out of the match for the Sharks.

42nd min TRY RAIDERS to Joey Leilua. It is off the back of a penalty and quick tap from Austin, he passes from over the goal line. Williams converts from close to the posts. Desperately needed try.

Sharks 22-12

Yeah buddy!

We’ve had some horrible moments with Austin over the years, but of all the guys leaving the club I’m actually going to miss him the most.

45th min Now Valentine Holmes knocks on a bomb on his try line. Abbey put him under pressure. Raiders scrum 10m out.

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.

That is such a bull**** rule. It should be considered a professional foul!

46th min Now Josh Hodgson held up, he's tackled and Holmes is ruled to have legally stripped the ball in goal. NO TRY and the Sharks are forced into a line drop out.

47th min Abbey dies with the ball on the last, a few metres out from the line. Poor set in the end.

Sharks have come out snoring this half. Did they put the cue in the rack?

49th min TRY RAIDERS to Joey Leilua... it is grounded! It's a try alright! Great pass from Rapana to Whitehead in the lead up! The Raiders are on a charge! Hodgson gets a good ball to Leilua from dummy half and he just goes over! Williams gets the goal!

Sharks 22-18
