Raiders will be hard to beat next week given their performance tonight.
Really? Raiders first two tries came with a massive slice of luck and Souths didn’t throw much in attack. I can’t see them getting close to Storm or Roosters but hope I’m wrong.

Well any dogs fan that lived through the late 80's to mid 90's saw how good they were we had some epic clashes with them. Glad that they back in a GF 25 years a long time.

So many players in the Raiders have hit a purple patch of form. Papali, Wighton, Sezer, Hodgson (was always class but has found another level) Nikol-Klokstad

Raiders defense immense.

Storm(Smith) or Roosters(Cronk)will annihilate them... Just can't see enough class in the Raiders team to beat these two teams in the big one...

Cook has been shit in the finals, is he unhappy?
Maybe he wants to come back home to Belmore.

I can see Papali getting off. He was square with the ball-carrier when he effected the tackle. Pretty hard not make contact with the shoulder in such circumstances.

That kick on the 5th killed them.
You cant get that wrong, not in that situation with the stakes so high.

Probably sick of a team mate like Burgess giving away too many penalties..

He was shit in last year’s finals as well. If he doesn’t have a platform set from the forwards his running game is non existent.

Canberra play good footy with great defence but I think that tonight was their GF. Roosters will roll into town and go back to back

Sezer is shit those soft inside balls to a runner are a waist of tackle.

It looked like a try live to me, and no amount of replays showed anything different.

Papalii has been good in the last 10 minutes. Questionable that he is on report, penalty at worst.
Totally agree. How many times do you need to see a replay when it was perfectly clear that he kicked it on the first.
I've been watching the world cup rugby, and almost as soon as the ball is over the line they cal try. They very rarely go to the video ref!
As for Papali, penalty at best. Burgess' shot on Corker minutes later was worse contact. The only reason papalii is on report is because he smashed him. NRL is losing its identity. They just want to sanitise the game and make mums like it. Fucking joke.
