When Rapana loses, We all win

6

u/JoeyJoJunior Dargons 8d ago

Would love to see an all time Grub team list, with like Rapana, Justin Hodges, Will Chambers, Reed Mahoney, etc.

2

u/Joh951518 Redcliffe Dolphins 7d ago

No way Reed gets hooker over Ennis.

1

u/JoeyJoJunior Dargons 7d ago

Was thinking about Ennis afterwards yeah

12

u/kobashi120 8d ago

I wouldn't want to be one of them raiders players in the dressing room after the game. Ricky Stuart will be giving the hair dryer treatment x1000. Rapana was shocking today!

u/Goku_Kakarot91 QLD Maroons 7d ago

have you considered the fact it wasn't them out there today?

u/lettuceo0 Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs 8d ago

9 tries in a half is crazy gotta be close to a record, in the nrl era at least

11

u/sour_dawg Wahgone 8d ago

Storm put ten second half tries on us Anzac day 22

u/MrBlue8erry Melbourne Storm ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ 8d ago

repeating constantly they only have 4 wins kinda undercuts the mood

Raiders champions of the forward pass and sideline

u/Desert-Noir I love my footy 8d ago

You can really see why these teams have no one in origin.

19

u/KavyenMoore Wests Tigers 8d ago

Can you? Api must be close to (if not) the best hooker in NSW

-5

u/Desert-Noir I love my footy 8d ago

Well yea 48-24, it wasnโ€™t a quality game.

Api is great but heโ€™d be the only one.

15

u/nick170100 I both love and hate my footy 8d ago

Great intercept by Douehi on Rapana, just tuned in how has Douehi been today?

u/Moisture_Services Newcastle Knights 8d ago

3

u/Benji_McLaren Wests Tigers 8d ago

Really good other than a couple of defensive decisions when playing 12v13

3

u/KavyenMoore Wests Tigers 8d ago

Pretty incredible considering he's been out for so long

3

u/Disastrous_Acadia962 Canberra Raiders ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ 8d ago

honestly he's played great

3

u/TrueDonut3673 Canberra Raiders 8d ago

Pretty decent considering his return. Not sold on his defence tho. A better team will test him out

3

u/Aussiefgt Penrith Panthers 8d ago

He's been Douehi in defense but has had some strong runs and decent kicks

2

u/bleachbrigade Wests Tigers 8d ago

Really good

Please stop fucking edging me. Just give me 50

72 points scored. The same as The Titans Warriors game.

2

u/robopirateninjasaur Canberra Raiders 8d ago

That doesn't mean the Wahs were only as bad as the Raiders

3

u/SomeRandomNZ Auckland Warriors 8d ago

The Warriors were much, much worse.

That was a knock on off Rapana there

19

u/Adz932 Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ 8d ago

Triple M commentatator "maroon" was just chatting shit about the attendance at the game, saying it's pathetic and they should move to Perth. It just felt like such a weird thing to say considering how well the tigers were playing.

And then dismissed the other comms mentioning that they had bigger attendances a couple of weeks earlier

5

u/Disastrous_Salad6302 St. George Illawarra Dragons ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ 8d ago

They spelt moron wrong

7

u/shaker8989 Gold Coast Titans 8d ago

Maroon is a moron.

u/AdministrativeIce696 Newcastle Knights 8d ago

He's a flog who's terrified of the tax man.

8

u/ColeTrickleVroom Penrith Panthers 8d ago

They sold out games earlier in the year and have been dogshit. The crowd isn't bad at all.ย

u/Adz932 Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ 7d ago

Yeah I just meant they were playing well today, and it was weird hearing him keep going on about it, instead of praising the performance. At one point I just thought he was trolling because he kept doubling down

11

Jesus christ Fainu has some wheels

Tigers in one game have score 25% of the F / A it was 200 before this game nearly 50

Hudson stole his shoe thoughย

Fainu is going to be one of the best backrowers in the comp in no time. He's a monster.ย

u/HeadacheCentral Parramatta Eels 8d ago

We're going to. I don't doubt it. And we're fucked for at least another 2-3 years, I reckon, unless they revamp the recruitment and retention team

1

u/aatrain96 Parramatta Eels 8d ago

And we deserve it

We have the worst defence

Raiders to concede two more so they can chill until 2025.

u/FalconPunch84 North Sydney Bears 8d ago

Seyfarth off the field Raiders score 16 points, Seyfarth back on the field Tigers score immediately. Seyfarth is Tigers most important player. Facts.

If this Raiders team turns up next week they might have 100 points put on them in 2 weeks

2

u/failuregoat1 Canberra Raiders 8d ago

Iโ€™ve been saying for years that Ricky is running this club in to the ground and needs to go. Every time you say that around Raiders fans the response you get is โ€œwHo WoULd bE A bEttEr cOaCh THan rICkYโ€

Im pretty sure my dog would do a better job getting these players motivated at this point. At least we wouldnโ€™t be playing a crash ball every play

1

u/Friction74 North Queensland Cowboys 8d ago

You're wrong. It's not the coach, it's because your in a rebuild. You have 2 halves who have less than 50 games between them, that inexperience is going to hurt you whether you like it or not.

1

u/failuregoat1 Canberra Raiders 8d ago

I agree to an extent, this year was never meant to be an enjoyable year in that sense. My problem is that there is maybe 5 players out there tonight who from an effort perspective you can say gave it their all. Every single Tigers player has played like their life depended on it and thatโ€™s been the difference. That portion of the game is purely down to coaching, and Ricky has clearly got no idea how to get the best out of these players

8

u/IndependentWork1033 Wests Tigers 8d ago

Imagine if we could go a couple of games in a row without a bin

Raiders can't get Fogarty back fast enough. They need his calm head. Move Weekes to 1 because Rapana needs 80% less touches.
