NRL 2024 | Raiders v Panthers | Full Match Replay | Round 25

[Music] so we're ready to go we've had the nrlw now the start of the NRL on Super Saturday you've got the best seat in the house on Fox league penrith first use and it is James Fisher Harris with the first run of the day conditions lend themselves to some bright attacking football today both teams coming off to feed on the 20 mid line summon big day for him third game in first grade for the season early shift by the Panthers Isaac Tango at on the right center and eventually captured just inside the 30 Cory hbra being the tackle welcome back Cory now yo with the ball would be surprised if camra come with an offloading game today we know it's it's worked in the past for param against penr Hudson young last week produced seven off against the Cowboys in a team flogged could be one to watch Raiders let's see their first use of the ball La off a Savage pass and CRA start there set 20 out from Their Own Line yeah nice confident start there from the Panthers bit of early ball movement out the tong out on this right hand side for penr and Isaiah yo a handful as always through the middle tall rangy great post contact mutter and now the Raiders making it difficult for them the Panthers to find mut back three all had a run to start the set and Smith's back up as far as the 40 he's do a try hasn't got one yet smiies we saw Paul get a did he not last week smiy still on the duck egg last tackle camra Jamal fogy oh yeah he's as good as any kicker in the league this is a monster what a kick I know the catch has taken but that kick is what 6 5 70 M and as high as you'll see any ball as well absolute brilliant take that was wobbling around everywhere and that stiff breeze made it extremely difficult for Brian to to even find his range where the ball was going to land and seven tackles now for the Panthers he's Steve Austin he's got he's got a boning boot or something he there's something doing in that that foot of his no one can kick a ball that big pth outside their 40 yo on the edge to fiser Harris moving freely Michael highlighted the fact it's three games in a row that penth have conceded the first try most unusual for a team that have become perfect starters when they're at their best L going nowhere across field there yeah good signs L looking to run the ball early summon on for Schneider admitted it was a tough call Schneider or cold to start ringer underneath it and Campell with the ball five minutes out from their own line L now with sideline judies what do you make of the breeze Lara now well we said off the top it's warm beautiful conditions but there is a very strong Breeze blowing and the weather forecast is that it's going to stick around until sundown I definitely think it had a part to play in that very impressive kick from Jamal fogy it is hard to tell though who it's going to favor in this first half good run there from Savage he split straight through leot now short side with press he's left Tango on the ground he's less than 100% the Panthers set is still getting back on S side getss a second kick and that is a St contrast to his first and On The Run top he's lost it he lost the ball well a kick of radical difference to the first one uh produces a different result he's going to challenge ring knock challeng from but you're right it was the depth of the first kick that has unsettled to starting position he was extremely deep and when Fergy didn't hit the ball as sweetly as he would have liked he to cover to you want to be sure of this Brian Brian wiggers Challenge 3 and a half minutes in bry's polishing up the guillotine he's shaking his head as we speak I don't know they can overturn this the ball wobbles oh now yes he this is good he get gets his right arm back under the ball before it hits to the ground and he pulls it into his own body the challenge is successful sit tight Brandy I'm happy with that yeah are you yeah that's a good call and a confident Challenge from Brian too but just seeing how the wind's playing Havoc there how deep was Brian too after the first kick from fog all right so good start to the day eventful three and a half minutes and now lifted up Moses leer suddenly looks like he's 9t tall sum in at of w half saw in round one of the year against Melbourne also played round 15 against Newcastle now L left side little opportunity there Casey McLean the 18-year-old tackled they're inside the Raiders half Garner back in first grade this week they've had a lot of players that have missed a big chunk of football during the year he's one of them Edwards another now L tackled as he kicks play on the call then it just bounc is up off his shoulder fish Harris not happy with the challenge on Lui but Atkins saw it live and said play off yeah I thought he arrived at the right time Danny Loui and you can see Casey mlan there just knocking the ball forward and into touch but the the pressure there down the short side from Danny Loui on L was was energetic and it was fair I thought Raiders with the ball outside their own 20 we get through the first 5 minutes nice and tight they both look up for the contest Loui is starting hooker Tom Starling back to the bench to come off the pitch T well down went Schneider in all of that he's okay now Loui left side oh TR to get up on Hudson young there's the young offload and it creates for weeks I think it's the X Factor the Raiders have a go early five inside the Panthers half fog and cross with smiies engages with leot and yo there and summon last play Raiders fog what's he got for us this time it's conventional and it's held in the breeze again Savage Savage got the ball in the front all out the back and stretches out remarkable try fog's kick Lara said it the breeze is doing all sorts of things and Savage comes up with a beauty yeah what a take this is from Savage over the top of to there's been a deliberate tactic from fog's kicking game going towards to but how good is it to see a Winger contesting the ball he's lofted it into in the air again fogy which has caused some Havoc to start this game with the bruise it holds up right Poss he doesn't it and beautifully taken then tippy toes down the sideline mle desperate lunge to bring him down but the acceleration from Xavier Savage brilliant this will show it perfectly look at this twists stays inside positions his body beautifully and and again penth ConEd the first try and it's fog at his kicking game that's causing Havoc here he's an exciting play do that a finish yeah the catch the turn speed bit of strength balance and stretch what did he do in this try his eyes just locked on the footy and never left and then the acceleration Off the Mark put down he's had some wonderful moments this year Savage the Buy in the crowd have bought it now into the contest and again penth can seeed the first four pointer it's becoming a trend it's four straight and over to Fergy well this is uh this paper rock scissor stuff they kicking today with this Breeze how how to judge this oh yeah we're going to have a look in at the variation that he's come up with with his first three kicks fogy but it's causing some Havoc here in the bruze now from the sideline this a big kick when you're playing penth you need to go up by Sixers good point fog his first kick of the day big swing yeah this is going to be tough it's uh it's going to be real tough for the goal kickers here's the three kicks Mar yeah the first one look at that that great camera work there just catching the spin and the elevation there of the torpedo bomb to did tremendous job then the next two look how deep Brian too is there waiting for what he saw with the first kick and he's had to come forward to the contest on the last two kicks This Time Savage gets it right the kicking game of fogy has been key early he's a gem Jamal fogy he's kicking it's it's a tri to watch he has become the best I think he's the best bomb kicker in the comp now he's got a remarkable boot on so Raiders with the ball and Cor hbr to bring it back they lead 4-0 certainly look up for I think we all thought there would be response definitely and we're seeing it from last week's disappointment well can I say vosy that Jerome Le has not made a tackle he has not made a tackle in the opening eight minutes of the game yet Brad Schneider that's his sixth tackle so you know where they going they have put this right edge of the Panthers under the blowtorch physically early we got the Speedy Kyo weeks playing out at the left side that's 5'8 today he has got speed last tackle back to fogy here we go again hello Brian you're in for a busy afternoon he's underneath of him with the ball the crowd went up and penth with the ball just inside their 20 D Lor on the other Rings going wow this is this is good I love this right wing stuff t that pulls the Raiders up a little there and we give pen chance to go up bound and about halfway they needed that uh you could just see leot who's from the commentary box here just getting some water from the trainer the middle forwards they know they're in for a game the Raiders have started really physical and fer Harris leot yo just taking a moment to catch their breath after that penalty to mclen that mean there Ricky Stewart will be wrapped with the start Garner now into the Raiders half G on that [Music] run and interesting too just on Ricky jet Stewart today is the replacement player um so possibility been activated Fisher Harris with a run for penth 20 away from the Raiders line so now the Raiders have got some defending to do Schneider Bobs up on the left DBI and run and gets within five of the line oh Raiders with the early try Panther's looking for response it's delivered by sumon well I don't think we saw that coming the old doubles ticket did anyone have the number nine for penth and keep their ticket once they got it yeah first attacking opportunity down on the Raiders line they'll be disappointed with that camera but you can see L here L Edward swinging to that left hand side so the Raiders pile number numers down there and you're right they're not predicting summon to get out of dummy half and catches them napping on their line nice bit of deception bounces off the left foot on the inside there of Danny Levi who gave away the penalty and on the inside of smiies who goes low close to the line summert to too strong and what a response there from the Panthers side and a chance to go in front K be watching second got four in the career this pl's got two and five now what's going on then you bring on Trent tayor he's got a try MIT just saying what about my stri I rarely get a try yeah it was nice work two in five games Luke T and Dylan Edwards First Choice kicker he's happy to have one close to the posts sideline conversion rate has not been good this year Dyan when he's had to stand in his kick up and he does turn four into six and through 11 minutes it's two points the difference I clear just watching on closely but it was really nice work from suton who just scanned The Ruck there and saw exactly what the Raiders were doing ring a whitehead all rolling around when they saw L and Edward swing across and then really nice deception and gee that's one of those moments of concentration that the Raiders have just they've had them in their game since that mid part of the season so Kyle wigs on the restart places it down to the goal line and it is fiser Harris bringing it back into the clutches there of Whitehead and Tim gner now for pen comes the shift again yeah they're set up right although the play the ball they get the penalty from the play the ball well they got a piggy back the last set 2 minutes ago now they'll do it again yeah that'll infuriate Ricky Stewart not only the tri that was ConEd and how easy it was for summon but now backing it up Morgan Smith he's just staying down too long in the tackle and an easy exit for the Panthers 100% completion rate for both sides but again if you're not aware when there's a penalty blown that counts as a completed set and then they go again after the penalty the second ball tle one stand up busy in defense that was his 11th tackle for Cory in 12 minutes L across to Edwards both Edwards and tole light on for meters last week against Melbourne was one stat out of the game Liam Martin fearless and fearsome summon wide for yo then for L they're moving on the outside Schneider doesn't position to oh goes a long way Schneider and then raber comes in with a shoulder which isn't uncommon he could find himself in a little bit of bother Jord yeah back into the side Jordan rener and it's nice work great withth of pass from dummy half linked up with yaan Lui and then coming across from his right hand side it was Schneider the former Raider and Jordan rener coming into the Collision there is he unlucky or not you think wasn't quite a didn't appear to be it was very quickly ruled on and of course that's a ref's job but yeah it was flashing across Rena penri so what if they had three penalties in a row their 10 m away from the line yo back inside oh he's been hurt oh he lost it but they've got it for offside there was a bit happening there with Moses on the charge yeah four penalties in a now discipline hurting the Raiders and penth want to they they're going to stay on the task here they feel like they can find more points 36 take another run at them right in front of the CRA posts now we got a set restart legp so penalties and set restarts it's like an avalanche against camra Now High tackle five penalty in a [Applause] row I'm happy to take that out then no no but I'm we're coming down here having more but I'm just saying tidy it up giving opportunity it will change your direction there and then [Applause] go yeah not much in that one they stay on the joben [ __ ] penalties in a row one set restart as well and that is coming a short space of time summon too fish Harris with a skip in his work there they'll do well to hang on here CRA summon to Lui he kicks Edwards cop to check and the ball goes over the dead ball line oh they got another penalty listen to the crowd of goas kick chase you hook they're scrolling the gum tree now to see where they can get a penalty for themselves can you buy one it's a Raiders penalty wow it's uh it's a busy day for the man with a whistle yeah so a little rush of blood there from Jerome L just trying to dab it into the in goal for for Edwards boy look at that from K weeks poor touch finder and he manages to get about 3 or 4 met up field if we had a game with six full penal look at that count in 15 minutes well they had to hold on there the r they they had to hold on when they've done so got to get through this set oh boy th this this is the most penalties bring that streak up again have we had have we had five in three minutes like we've had seven for the match well the game had great flow early didn't it and then all of a sudden in the last four or five minutes it's just been one after another there it is look at that 12 13 two in the 40 minutes 16 that's outrageous 80 minutes of that and the whistle end up in the Hall of Fame be an amazing performance yeah now tpy on the edge there for Hudson young he's lost the ball was it reefed out okay well they made challenge widads rushing in let's have another stoppage boy okay we Captain chance from knock they're claiming it St well if they win this it'll be another penalty Andrew well we we I don't know whether the Fox Sports lab keep records on schneer moves his left arm from the body to the ball and with more than two people in the tackle it out Cheng is successful ladies and gentlemen Super Saturday we have a penalty of Thon and I'm not I'm not saying that I'm not saying that as a criticism of the referee I'm just saying facts a facts we have eight count where we have had eight penalties in 16 minutes and one set restart he must be close to binning somewhere you would think we've had seven in five s Raiders with the ball 35 away from the penth line Levi HB Cory there around the legs Liam Martin now Levi for Tony and fogy through the defense right foot step fog's got his first four-pointer for the year but guess what there might be a penalty for obstruction instru uh it did open up yeah it did it opened up far too easy just watched the lead run here of Morgan smithies and it might be ongan SM in fact it's on Luke Garner and there's no doubt that L gner is looking to slide Morgan smi's runs to the outside shoulder and Jamal fogy plays back through this space we have a decision yeah you're almost hoping that Edwards made that tackle aren you because then it's probably allowed to to play on but another penalty and it's a shame for camra because they' weathered the storm they've got through a big defensive block on their line earned themselves a penalty to get down fi the only one enjoying this of Rugby Union fans ball up near halfway again for penth Extraordinary count last 5 minutes eight penalties I don't know where it's ever happened I don't know 41 away from the Raiders line the Panthers with a ball quite a start to Super Saturday ball with Fisher [Music] Harris Tim got in there smiies he's a worker working smiies now L show show J L just caught there by weeks now suan Edwards they're set with yo Schneider through the tackle of fog then had to put the brakes on that's the fourth tackle leading by two the Panthers yo back towards the posts they good kick left or right here they'll keep the Raiders guessing they come to the left Lui doesn't kick and the Raiders defense effective well done C hold on Jerome Le see I'm not sure there's many other players in the competition that were going to stop Jerome L when he took on the line but the speed of Ky weeks great to see L running the ball threatening the opposition but the speed of Kyo weeks on the left Edge for the Raiders is going to be hard to trouble he he just can recover even if it's not right if he doesn't get the initial decision right when he's got that amount of grass behind him he can just mow them down Sebastian Chris now trainer just with Jord rer out back he's okay he should have shrug the trainer away now horra to tarpening there's another blow kicking offload can I can I say again we're almost 20 minutes into the Game Jerome L not one tackle F here's another one Brian to do your best that's his best take the ball back that was rather timid by comparison to other kicks challenges L's had to go looking for work he's ready to run he's he's looking up he's wondering when the ball will go across to him Cas him a clean slay to his feet that time L's had just the one run and and and no kicks have come his way so finally he he get to run with the ball under the wing now for yo yo ear terrific look at this post contact [Music] MERS down to La okay I was doing some numbers around yo P was to make the grand F could be that's the day that he becomes the number one games record hole for the in in the Grand Final could it could be that way that's getting ahead of ourselves of course he will eventually break the record but this year or next oh no drop ball from Sebastian Chris was really soft 25 M out from Their Own Line a gas the fans the camper fans yeah they've given away six penalties in the opening 20 minutes after scoring the opening triy to Savage which was an absolute beauty and a yardage air up and you can see the frustration there on Ricky Stewart's face a cheap turnover there from the Raiders and you just canot continue to invite this Championship side down attacking your line you just can't do it Edwards and L will kill you penth side with 64% of the ball and a 12 from 12 completion rate boosted by the penalties but they're not sitting on one try through 20 minutes too often on the back of those numbers let's go down Ricky Stewart wasting no time as well Josh Pap coming to the sideline for the Raiders it's a penal from the scrum and tongle Edwards Lor's on his way Lori oh Chris may have got some Redemption he tried to make the try saer he will be the most anxious man of the stadium he was the man who dropped the ball he's the man who may have prevented the try yes the lunging Sebastian Chris trying to reel in Dane Lorie and it's bounces from Lorie and it's this Next Movement does he get it down before no good work does that touch the L that yeah he he just watch the the boots up doesn't he I think there it touches see D L's feet are into touch prior to grounding we have a decision question marks have the initial pass out of the scrum I thought that may have traveled forward and Sebastian Chris you're right chased a little harder didn't he chased a little harder knowing that he was the one that well done well I'm happy for it that would have you know he would have had the double out and they they scored he'd be he'd be worried about what spray he was going to get from the coach but he's done a terrific job there it ends up a a fantastic prizing tackle now hsbr so Raiders with a ball 15 away on their own line H with a run H coming from the field that's the first change for the Raiders papal out there now as Hudson young again trying to work over this right edge of the Panthers Cory worked hard Michael four hit ups and 16 tackles horra RAID 10 inside their own half Levi on for tapy and he had big Pap there there's an offload through the center ringer with a ball for camra support player Levi was bowled over fogy with the ball he runs she's had some numbers on the outside had been able to find a pass pogy now it's the last tackle a set restart on the last now will discipline from pedre Young almost barrels his way through the defense there leg paole no set restart tarpy with the ball now there is a set restart they need none at all Kyo Wicks flashes over and then throws a 40 m flick pass into the crow yeah he's an absolute Beauty Ricky Stewart speaking of about him and Xavier uh about Ethan strange I be your pardon before the game and just how important they've been to their season this year Kyo weeks just the speed and it started with that man toning and it finished with him beautiful offload there you mentioned are the Raiders going to bring their offload game today given how much the param side trouble penth a couple of weeks ago that started the onslaught and then they go out to that left hand side and a charging run here from tarp the beautiful sighted offload on the inside the blistering speed of weeks who has been great for them at different stages this year but it's their big man their leader Joe tarpy bustling his way through offloading back on the inside and the speed of weeks finds a hole in the Panthers defensive line and the Panthers go from down the other end potentially scoring a try and Chris saving one they're going the other end and the Raiders get their second that is seriously good from Joe tarpy the first offl but the second offline when you see that that head on replay in Fox League yeah you you think of front rowers back and like blocker blocker had a great offload in him but not necessarily the step the the step and the swerve with respect to the big fella tarpy's got a bit of everything there there's great athleticism oh yeah then the offload back yeah he is that's a great piece of play one of the best forwards in our competition no doubt about it and yeah I know I know I've halfed on about it but but Schneider again that right Edge like Ricky Stewart has come here this afternoon with a game plan to go after the right edge of the pen side and they are have been extremely deliberate he adds the extras now fog in so plan from Ricky 10 points to six not a tackle yet from Jerome Le not not one tackle and and we are 24 minutes into the game further to that Casey McAn he's only got the one tackle man outside jro y Brian to not a single tackle so so between one two three there's one tackle between the three on the left side of penr that is quite a quite a number 16 1 half to go first half on this uh Super Saturday afternoon and night here on Fox Le coer on the run back up over the 20 he [Applause] goes well he's made an initial impact hasn't he T powerful on that last set but it was Pap that was pushing through him through the middle that drags some Defenders off him and then a great carry off the kickoff there from Josh Pap and the Raiders starting to roll here yeah and and the crowd now there really is serious by and they they're cheering every hit up they're they're looking for penalties and that just takes the wind out of their sails not for the first time today the Raiders an error inside their own half clock on yeah an error that time from the man we've just been waxing lyrical about he's been tremendous and this time offloads and how they could have they could have challenged that referee saying it went forward first and then bounce backwards and again they give the Panthers some easy possession on the halfway line it is right there there's the center of halfway just to the side of scub great watch K is like he's just so quick across the ground on to Snider the run there at Sebastian Chris 25 from the cell line they're going to go try for try these two teams Moses leot now on the [Music] run away summon to Yo good service there fori straightens him up Edwards with it pushing him towards the corner Green Machine had to get active there in defense Casey mle for Lui they're deep and ripe he picks out the short man in front the short pass anyway for f Harris it's the last tle pin right side yo Schneider floats it up Lor's got another crack Lori this time he's hit hard by Hoppa D is missed out oh this one have a w a try he's not confident the camra teammates are convinced HOA has saved him yeah well he's saying now you can see the reaction there of Dan Lorry just watch the work from hoti here the desperation on his troll on Yo's ball playing through the middle is really troubling them the former Raider schn a lofted pass over the top was a beauty to Lori and again it was a foot race this time it was hopa oh I think he's got it he's the he's given himself up he has well it it'll be a dry they if they prove it it's it's going to be a great finish that's brilliant that is brilliant from Dane Lorry cuz that was a physical effort there from HOA charging it full speed from the inside legs in the air oh boy that that is close I think yeah I think that's a try there is literally centimet in look at the reaction yeah [Applause] no well he went agonizingly close any moments ago Dan lorri and he's been great for them it's been great to see him back at pen he can't believe it he can't believe he's got he's still shaking his head still Shak for 10 all so over to Edwards now I mentioned the the the sideline stats I'm going to do the reverse commentator curse here I'm going to help him see land this well I'm just telling you that he's he's one he's three from nine on the right touchd L three from nine here he goes Dylan Edwards it's in all 12 and a half to go first half there he go yes yes no no it's three from 10 the speed in which isai yo uh accelerates through the middle just condenses The Ruck defense of the opposition look at this you can see how tight weeks is caught in field and so he plays out the back to Schneider who sights the line hopa he caught in field did well to turn and adjust but he's quick across the ground Dane Lorie and that's a wonderful finish these two clubs Michael will be in Vegas sat next year camber Raiders in the home of the Vegas Raiders Panthers will be there as well eight teams four matches one Epic ticket tickets and travel packages are on sale right now at nrl.com Vegas at least have a look teases it and see if he can work it into the schedule we enjoyed oh now Raiders have G out on the full theyve made some mistakes in the first half haven't they yeah and they've been unforced the offload from tarpy that invited the the Panthers back down there now kick out on the four from weeks that hurts a lot of their own doing the errors here now Smith on in a really strong 80-minute game against Mel wsy Smith try as well into the bargain Lui show and then arm extended out to Liam Martin terrific now he's sprinting back around to the left side Fisher Harris with it yo short to Smith legs tackle there fog 25 away yo Schneider Martin into the Raiders 20 they go they've had 13 tackles inside the Raiders 20 today they're about to get a stack more here on the back of a set restart again this is all because to kick kickoff went out on the full sum Lou dummy just caught that is as close as Lei could go then at a WBY half pen held up and just a fraction short slow play the ball back it comes Schneider Edwards Chong looking to put a move [Applause] on the score in four straight games Isaac in the centers here for pen now Edwards they're moving the Raiders around here lay with a ball B like pass out in front of Brian totle back comes Bryan get last tackle pen at 10 all Raiders under big pressure lise's kick is gone and they're not grounded the big front rower will hold fish Harris was he hit with a leg find a grounded with a leg Yeah he's saying penal TR when he has the ball ready to ground it can you please review that couldn't believe he's Lo the big front row Fisher Harris it's set up beautifully looked like it was going to be too long off the boot from L the bounce here it's clean run to the ball sits up on its point there for him and ring a lunging oh gee no I I don't think has that played any any role in not getting the ball down just looking to determine if James F Harris has possession already knocked it on and the contact from Jordan Rano no he's already lost it he's already lost it and and the contact minimum minimum yeah I I know he's ended up with a a not but uh certainly not um penalty cry areas there but again in normal speed and make a call and send it up absolutely there's a lot happening in this James fiser Harris has already knocked on prior to some high contact from Jordan rapana it will be a penalty for the high contact we have a [Applause] decision I think that's a right call there wasn't a lot of force in it but it definitely was high and report we have a penalty and he's on report rer but a penalty now for the P so if it had have been the reverse though I think well would have been if they if they're saying that's enough for him to drop the ball then it had been the other way around the the arm into the head first and then the drop yeah there's only frames in it not even a full second so Dylan Edwards is brought out for itad not too happy about it they're right in this raus if they can tidy up their discipline and a couple of their unforced errors physically and even on their edges their decision making defensively has been vastly improved from what we saw last week in Townsville so there has been a response which Ricky Stewart was after but you just know this Pan the side are going to be there for 80 minutes they're just going to keep coming that's the breeze playing the factor ball off t you won't want to rush any kick even though this is beside the post when you're not the First Choice kicker and there's Breeze back through his process [Music] now with had the lead again two is be there big is lead 12 points to 10 just under 9 minutes remaining first half plenty happening uh this week not just on Fox league but what about main event Wednesday from 7 the Dark Prince of the Australian boxing's royal family returns theu puts his undefeated record on the line at a soldout IC the only place you can watch it is on Main eventu versus mudia Wednesday night boxing Fisher Harris off for penrith injury assessment so w't see him until the other side of half time weeks is a little more delicate on the restart and has the angle right this time Smith brings it [Music] back 11 penalties and five second restarts in the first half just keeping tally of that through 32 minutes that's one every two it works out at that and now sumon has a bit bit of Joy there at a w half been good hasn't he sumon Henry was the man who followed up now yo on to Lui and it goes for Edwards mle all the way across to totle it's lovely to watch last tackle pen L and left foot he's everywhere Jerome Lis so much energy in his first half performance tongo hit by rer camra on the back of presentation OC yeah showed great composure there Jordan rer just waited for tongo to catch the footy and then launched himself forcing the eror Hudson young there to collect the ball in a bit of pain a bit of discomfort some fatigue really starting to settle in now at the back end of this first half and we're still on Jerome Lei watch not a tackle yet to be made in this game yet so nothing going over towards Jerome Le's left hand side of the field is on halfway ball smiies oh he's in there Jerome is that is that his first tackle of the afternoon there it is sorry Raiders of the ball 42 M out High one they're chasing hard have a look at Savage Edwards M gets it back oh there's some luck in there for the penrith fullback Savage was at Full Tilt get the [ __ ] off but that is really chasing half yeah that was another enormous kick enormous kick from Jamal fogy and greatness Su Savage who's really started to make it part of his game very similar to Zack LX for the dragons where he's Inc competing and it was only Edwards shielding his shielding the ball with his body that saved him from any any damage to the scoreboard now Henry with it for the Panthers at 12 points to 10 last play here they've eaten up the was a quick time L the kicker and he's got rer on the run so Jordan to bring it back what a bad position to start a set outside the 30 a lot of the other Raiders play very slow there's some hands on hips I see right hands above the head portion of the pack only now getting back on side Hudson Young's ready to riing though and that brush is is aside from [Music] [Applause] Snider staring G can the P forwards Tire he know he loves to run if he gets an opportunity young back inside weeks well read by the pin defense five tackles up it is fog the kicker or is it run and kick low chasing hard ball wobbling there for tottle was on to him he did well there F the under pressure from lindsy Smith who came out of the line but did well just to get onto the outside and keep the ball along the ground Maverick g into the action now Luke Garner coming from the field he'll be happy to get through his first in after being out of the side for eight weeks with that hamstring injury and the Panthers again for another set really struggling to make MERS so guy in with his first run Maverick today his 11th game he loses the shorts he's made his entry he's he's got us watching last tackle pen you're right Michael on the me is game 42 from pen No dominance at all kick takes a handy left foot turn tell you what um it's almost an accidental 4020 Jordan rer was sh no emergency once it bounc left he was very confident it would keep an angle you watch where he takes the play the ball he's probably 20 cm over the 20 M line that's a huge kick too into the bruise bang it's it's going that could have been embarrassing for the camper fullback Raiders with the ball can't get any possession down inside the Panthers 20 that's glaring the differ there just one one tackle inside the Panthers 20 today as opposed to pen 19 in CRA 20 oh gee been awkwardly there Morgan smiies right leg caught under there that was that was nasty styling on [Music] to made a short of halfway three remaining styling working right for fog this time C's last tackle and yeah there's no there's no dominance here either way with the set at the moment Edward retreating good catch rebalanced brings it back oh and then loses balance as he falls into the tackle of white [Music] [Applause] here this is this is a physical period of the game maybe and there were so many stopping early you would have thought they might have been all cylinders going at the end of the half and now ball lost by Lori well hello door open camber Raiden right in front of the sticks inside the 30 forever in a day you know the last four seasons The Pen side have just charged downfield with their plays one two and three and really allowed Moses leot and Fisher Harris and joseo not to have to travel too far back get behind the ball after some powerful carries in the opening parts of the set but haven't Raiders haven't given them that opportunity today they're doing a good job on top dane Lorry as well there and Dylan Edwards another so the Raiders doing a really good job starting their sets on the back through the Panthers so cra from the scrub and those that follow the Raiders closely will know how important the halftime lead is when they scan the stats for Sports lab back it up they've L it halim only seven times this year you know what's happened from there they've won all seven level or behind they've won only twice so they've got a chance 18 M away smiies and fogy floats it over the top not much opportunity there for hoba that does well to stay from the sideline that's four tackles we [Applause] to then for Hudson young got to find more passes than that they just keep resetting their attack penth handle that easy last tackle and it's KY weeks left foot de it's rolling fast L had to make sure of it with a big Palm over the the dead ball line for lion drop out just 35 seconds on the clock so there will be some football penth can't chew up all the time here and Chris they were right on it so basic one play in fact they might even look know it's 1210 if you want to get something out of it you might just take a snap you just don't know Edwards will go long when he sees the time that's what he does and I don't think Papa's kicking a two-point field goal from out there rer ends up with it so r a tackle it should do us half time sounds and a rather eventful first 40 minutes nothing is easy for penrith here in camber today they've been made to work Jerome L's been outstanding but at halime we got a real game here penth 12 leading the camber Raiders [Applause] 10 and Dyan Edwards kicking the penalty goal to take it out to 12 point to 10 second half underway Breeze just as strong that dipped a little is the first runner back for the Raiders see if possession squares up in the second half it so often does that will make things interesting caders get the ball that pth had played by marota there on young straight away the Raiders going back to penis right Edge they just put them under the blowtorch didn't they in that opening 40 minutes Hudson young putting a Target on Schneider again and I've got some news for you from the lab we did not credit Lui with a tackle as Third Man in he was not credited with a tackle in the first half Mar last tackle for the Raiders and a slow play the ball you don't want that on a kick that puts pressure on fogy gu coming at him and Edwards on the catch B actually playing four in the back they they retreated quickly he had two on his right and one on his left he could have passed two Dylan Edward yeah this is where I think in the second half we'll see a real Resurgence real energy out of the back three from penth who were well contained in the opening half Loui uh bran Dylan Edwards Dane Lorry they did a great job the Raiders to limit their meters I total one tackle bus last week and only one today that that's what Dr are Brian the man who double figures quite often now L up on the advantage line back in for GU they Advance a little too easily there last tackle Jerome Lui kicking from the short side back in Fai big Lea and knock back was massive long ball now tongo flick out the back nicely done chip over the top Lorry and all hits on Deck Kaio weeks got across there for it was the right decision from lri a beautiful skill from the right winger Dane Lorry chipped over the top of H and again it's this speed to be able to recover and save opportunities from Kyo WIS he is absolutely electric across the ground WIS Raiders back with the ball on the 20 shortage of penth fans here today too plenty made their way to the ground just his third run of the day mat Timo he's just got he's got to go looking for more work he side needs it you mentioned Brian to and his tackle busting ability timos he's in the same M two three runs and FY kicks from inside the 40 again it's big if it's allowed to bounce oh it it straightens up oh and then beats Edwards back to the end goal he almost got a 4020 if it went left L pit on the sideline I I reckon Ricky Stewart fancies his chances here yeah told a great energy in the Raiders sheds at halftime plenty of players doing the talking about how they can get in this game in the second half and go on with it Ricky Stewart really happy with effort plays because that's what they spoke about all week and he just wants to see more of the same here real short and sharp from Ivan clear you know he's usually a man of few words he just felt the game in the first half was to stop start for them they've got to build pressure to get into their game and as you can see J F back into the action after passing his H last tackle here for pen and oh Schneider he left it very late to kick Hudson young is entitled to something there and then rer is under pressure scrambling back into the 10 m Zone he goes well Sebastian Chris just didn't have the awareness that Tango was pressing down on him and cracked him in the back and and jolted the ball fre it was great work from Tango but I'm not sure Chris knew he was there he needed to have more awareness there's The Challenge from Yang on Schneider he waited too long to kick we're reaching we're reaching ridiculous St players complaining but he held on to the ball so long Young's allowed to do something to him can't just let him kick the ball and uh 10 for the Raiders they keep saying Score first but this might stay 1210 for a while outside the 30 last tackle no great meter games from either side to start the second half it's where we it's where we finish the first half now now Lorry to bring it back the out of square keep an eye on the meters made in uh in the SE the moment Edwards on a shift no held up again again they limit his meters great work from Starling good line speed and then smi's responding from the inside call this high energy running the ball Backle there five short of halfway they look a bit flat don't they penth yo with it maybe they get going this time out on the edge to Maron ball dogging his way into the Defenders into the camber half nice scoop up there from summeran that's bit a moving from Smith one run then an offload yo with the ball confronted by Defenders yo breaks through great pass Fisher Harris out of nowhere penr leave it leave it the forwards rally yo magnificent Fisher Harris explosive and Pen scor the first try of the second half yeah started with a bit of energy from lindsy Smith The Interchange forward just getting a cross field on the back of some nice work at dummy half from Summerton just brought him onto the ball and he just examines his way across field here with some footwork and ball in two hands showing it gets a nice offload back there scooped up by L by oai Yao and just sliced his way through some pretty ordinary attempts at tackle from the Raiders and great leg speed from fiser Harris Lara said back onto the field after passing his hi yo did a great job great reaction to pick up the loose ball then fends off fogy gets through the tackle of widad and offloads with Starling around his legs and Fisher Harris well the Harvey Norman replay shows he's running so fast he almost went have the dead ball line he was coming that quick flash past the goal line with no thought of diving over to score the production line vosy and we we talk about it a lot at penth I know Fisher Harris this man's moving on at the end of the year to the Warriors but shown some great science hasn't he Lindsey Smith this year he is really elevating himself and looks ready to become a household name in the front row with Moses leotta next year I said 80 minutes against Melbourne last week yeah that's that's a big uh tick next year 16 hit-ups 41 tackles and a try yeah uh so great Try by penth 8 lead is the biggest of the match for either side figures for James fiser Harris Warriors bound but a bit to do before then in fact he has uh he has the big 200 game Milestone coming up James Fisher Harris it's 198 today that's a great work from a big man I know it's only six or seven minutes after half time but to be there they just continue to compete and poor old Smith is's there well he's surrounded by black jerseys doing his best he can't understand a word Morgan saying but was try to please him drive here from CRA so we talked about making the running now they have to score next the Raiders try really came out of the blue no the penth offload yo that did the damage cross with Edwards out Schneider there confidence now that's like a a shot of adrenaline for the Panthers suddenly they live it up now they're full of run hard offload we got a penalty the ball well and truly gone a late shot here on well and truly Luke summon out of dummy half got deep into the line when he hit Liam Martin and hit hard there from the inside from atam Mariota just launched him into the ribs there Adam G having none of it some ill discipline there from the Raiders and very similar to what we saw in the first half they they their discipline just invites penth into good field position he's back taking a breath he's back on his feet which is good too many hom sides find themselves on the end of 93 penalty counts through 49 minutes so it stands out at the moment 93 Harris with the ball for pen be a dangerous set this one for the Raiders pen is summon L Liam Martin run awfully hard today another one who hasn't had the full season this games of times yo with it Schneider little show back for mle 25 away from the Raiders line they're building the Panthers Yo's got his fingerprints all over it can't get him to ground sub's already got one Panther's on the right Lui I get it wrong there Martin didn't end up with a ball last tackle so L out of the play who steps up it is Schneider he's ready to kick little one over the top missed by pen and then dropped by camra that was a sort of a an climactic the finish of all of that no catch by pen no clean catch by C leg speed and ball playing ability of Isaiah y on backto back plays there really challenging the def the defensive line of the Raiders Savage now doing some tough work carrying the ball hard as we see Ricky Stewart about to get tpy back into the action he was great to start the game Raiders on the 30 the run for staling good hard there l [Applause] it is Wicks who kicks this time on the angle out the way of Lorie penth be a set well up field Fisher Harris races off for the Panther so to summon and Henry and to will go into the game for the first time today very defense to able to offload Edwards with it keeping it alive L the dummy ducking flick pass where' that come from been a few offloads from penth in the in this second half they're taking some chances great work there from tarpy who's just come back onto the field great scramble from the Raiders but it's getting quick and out the rock it is indeed and they're going straight down the center Snider did his task there on halfway Henry Fresh Off the Bench cting Defenders with him last play pis Le time to put this bomb to place it short of the line rer is going to feel a bit of hit here from the Panthers there's nowhere to go there and P back to within 5 minutes of the line they're the moments I think that everyone's recognized with the leadership of Jerome L the kicking game there not trying to overdo it not looking for a big play just happy to turn it over a couple of meters out from the Raiders line and then he side responds now physically with their defensive line and that's what's made Nathan clear the champion he is at times he's decision making with his kicking game when to be patient when to pull the trigger I thought that was a classic play there from L clear watches on for the Panthers smiies with the ball stands at Raiders overall only 40% 40% possession here and they have to kick from deep inside their own half again spiral on this one Edwards with it but penth not having to work out from inside their 20 at the moment Edwards with the ball [Music] go so they're winning the battle and they're leading by eight the Panthers the Raiders are just hanging on at the moment he's starting to get going bran to he's had a couple of powerful runs now in backto back set so to this man starting to recognize there's a bit of fatigue in the Raiders defensive line on the back of that possession that you spoke about SMI off [Applause] L him down [Applause] yo look at the speed Yo's out he's going so well for this pen side at the peak of his powers zo last tackle penth slow play the ball from Edwards still time for the kick from Schneider rer needs a catch and comes up with [Applause] it never left the ground Jordan rer Raiders again have to run off their own line so penther starting sets outside their 20 CRA just Meers out from their own line there's the difference at the moment it's all hard work for Ricky Stewart's team release there you go Raiders haven't had a tackle inside pen territory this half to on a carry yeah you feel it's going to have to be some one out play that gets camra back in it weeks offload ni it a step double step [Applause] there release did well to get back to the 40 St last tackle and they kick from inside their own half penth kicks are all attacking tole underneath it for pen and era from this pendra side who have just clicked themselves into autopilot to again offloading the [Applause] footy the Raiders you feel it they need to bring back that offload game just to try and break up the pen defensive line try and earn themselves a penalty or get themselves some field position at the moment they're just getting suffocated from penth penth Seven from Seven completed sets the second half they are the team offloading they've had five offl since halime the pan slow play the ball there from to and now Edwards spreading it across for L there was an overlap oh he's in trouble briefly Savage he hit the there Savage back on his feet now yeah he's trying to make go to in a moment Smith running it last tackle penth another attacking kick incoming uh and it is to kicks it oh Big Bounce r with the ball for camra Beats one does well they needed that the Raiders and Jordan's boot just went flying about 20 M North I saw that now that can be you know what well the Raiders are still blowing up they well they they latch on to these things these days once the bunker will put a little word in the referees here they've charged players with that this year be standing in North coin land just clapping Stand The discus throws at the Olympics didn't throw it that far as the that boot went you might have found some Talent Raiders still trying hard s there just no ball inside the Panthers half at all fogy kicks oh the ball has been dropped there's the error from penrith Lori with a benefit of hindsight didn't need to attack it and uh CRA will finally get a tackle inside the Panthers half yeah now had a lot of time there Dane Lorie and the breeze just holding it up rocking it off the boot from foged and it just dipped on him late and he was well and truly committed by that stage Lori but that was exactly what the Raiders were after and it was a tenacious run at the start of the set from Jordan rer with one boo that got the set going and the Raiders with their first opportunity first opportunity in the second half attacking penis line big chat between the spine before this scum pack down for the Raiders 20 M out from the line finally they get a chance s with the ball we know how good penis defense is though 20 away Starling to the right laugher now points for camra bring the crowd right back into the contest Starling fog marota offload switch of play duby from Starling change of plan Harpy with the ball passes on the bounce still on Chris HOA penth everywhere The Tackle right in the corner five away from the line still on for the Raiders they bring it back with Hudson young Henry there in the tackle T from the line toy and that's been touched by penr offside offside anyway bsbr literally just ran onto the field replacing Matty and was available for the short pass from tarpy some space out the back but the direct mentality the call from the benches go for two they they're ready for the tap they've taken the tap overruled the the bench was uh going for two but if they've already told the ref we're tapping then that call has come too late I think I think the players on field have made the right decision T is held up yeah he found to in the defensive line there and just Chang gears Joey tarp would you have been kicking 18 12 with 22 to go tack two line no I would have got had no ball down this you got it going to make the use of it let's see what they come up with Cory horra where's he headed his comass there for a moment me to run hard and straight Cory and then loses the ball not a great moment for Cory horb there pinth come up with it that's a bit of disappointment for the Raiders could have taken the T yeah I agree whole hearted I agree I don't know what that would do where was Cory like he is just he is Ram he just runs hard and straight every time what was he doing there yeah it's a loose carry there from hsbor unfortunately just trying to get the arm free and penth well they held on but they didn't have to hold on for long did they so Panthers will ly inside the 4 T and he was still there putting pressure on R up to have his 13th carry of the day Jordan R good tackle underneath there from Tong had to be made second time these two clubs have met C away their support inside now haa his home for the chocolates the Raiders back in it it's a long range try good thing they didn't go back for the goal there cuz then they wouldn't have dro the ball got the ball back 70 M away to score there it is the Raiders outside backs backing their skill backing their skill they've got some wonderful individuals that can punish you and it was a great run from rer left the Defenders on the ground you could see there uh having to travel down the short side there was Liam Henry the middle forward and it left them exposed and it was great athleticism down a narrow short side there from hopa to find a pass to Sebastian Chris who did well just did enough to draw in Edwards and hopa back into the side today and he goes over for an important try for the Raiders great to see the outside backs linking up well you called for it and every every run there is a top speed exciting rugby league from camber there they've got some wonderful outside backs the Raiders and at times it's a conservative approach and I understand they they love their power game when when you've got middles like papal and tarpy hbra there today marota they're powerful men and they play that game and they hit a lot of leads but at times hoba Savage Chris Timo rener they can punish you they can hurt you I don't know what happens from here but at least I'm saying well done camera embarrassed last week Flo oh yeah this is wh been a great game and now they go into the last 20 against penth who are playing well not their best but playing well and they're two points behind and they've had only 44% of the ball Ricky he's not going to go in there you saw the emotion at half time he's not happy at 806 that's that's not the result he's come here looking for today they've had some pretty average performances here at different stages through the year now they're pushing the premier that they will want to win this footy game and they're within two and a bit of confidence behind the home side you can feel the energy now with the crowd starting to get behind them when does Ricky come down the sideline is he going to stay up in the Box he's just below us where we're commentating from Edwards on the restart CRA down by two got themselves in with a shot and a lot of time on the clock T made a difference came back into the game and straight away what Y is to pen with today taring he is to camera outstanding leaders great call here yeah absolutely you can just feel the energy shift coming he back onto the field T is purn now fighting for every inch inside their own half mes leot gets ready to go and the kick from inside the 40 onto the bike goes Edwards not a good result for C great result for pen yeah went the early kick but Edwards just perfect [Applause] positioned has been too many sets this second half that pen have had to work hard out of their end here is a gner nice left foot step there it's a good game right now 48 away from the line the back into it says Tom Starling see you later pther is 40 away L thought about left Schneider fingertip control Edwards pushed along now Lor's on his way Lorie the Road Runner and then back in field Edwards with the ball Edwards deception just caught by horb last tackle very jammed in defense here Raiders Lui trying to find the space jumping around kicks only Savage at home with the ball Xavier Savage you're bouncing around your own look L was looking to link up with his half's partner who is on his hes in back plight absolutely level by Kyo WS is Brad Schneider he is buckled and gasping for air and it's l that needed to take control on his own a de little touch off the inside of the left boot Savage back there dancing near the dead ball line but great pressure great kick and great experience from Lui how ambitious do they want to be do they go a short one or no they'll go down the middle the no man's land almost leot on the bounce he goes against darling how good the little blow 30 away from the line pen possession Henry bulling run Panthers have had the greater field position for the better part of the game here they are again inside the 20 another yo offload give me the go he is coming with a rush maybe all the way to the Del M where he's going L with the ball switch there to with it cam have to defend this set to play it you got come here tackle oh boy Morgan smiies has to get the Cut Above the uh the beak yeah well cleaned [Applause] [Music] up he's not fussed by it at all to going he doesn't want to come off [Applause] [Music] no there's two tackles left in this set this is where it happened for side of the head of there a great stop tongle who was powerful he ventured infield was at full flight what do you think got ready for camber here straight the look at the formation the big triangle looks absolutely brilliant yeah look look at that that is amazing that that is a big V they've set up it could go left it could go right both their service players so you can see they L and isai either side of the rck then you've got Edwards over there with L you've got Snider over here on this side so the threats both sides of the field it's like they've trained since November for this moment we've got something ready to go if we find ourselves in this position L duby and that takes L out of the last tackle play recovered Edwards sweeping round to the left that's the way they go Schneider little dab ball is there Maverick Gia was in close proximity Savage was able to more or less fumble it over the dead ball line I think it's time to go short from Jamal fog Mak it a contest he's got some big athletes out on his edges because penth are so comfortable here they will just sit and wait till they get the look that they're after until they get the defensive mismatch that they're looking for and then they'll strike go they've got to disrupt this they have to disrupt this to the difference 15 and 1 half to go we got a cliff and the start Super Saturday oh Schneider it was RA and then up and he comes up just re this a semi-final folks this might as well be a a sudden death go the way they're going at it BR sn's come back to camera this afternoon think he's going to run into a few old mates and have a good afternoon it's been brutal for him it it has been absolutely nasty probably get arrested by the AFP on the way out it's Cent up a the Panthers with a ball 21 away from the Raiders line they're showing great spirit the Raiders but pth have their noses in front Martin switcher play Moses Leota with the ball 15 away from the k line we called a lot of footy this end of the field Lui now Schneider guy of the offload straight to Savage what what a piece of play there from Xavier Savage got himself right up ahead of the line defensively and into the eyesight there of Maverick gu who looked to offload the footy and he swooped and a huge defensive period there for the Raiders look at this from Savage right up there jamming in hard and that's a big play now he carries the ball with some Venom good stuff good signs from Savage physical B and run spectacular try in the first half lers through fogy WS Mick held his breath Ricky may have done the same it ended up with haati 15 inside their own half the kick from weeks Edwards gets it on the full again they're not finding the grass with a kicks and Edwards comes back making 20 M at a time needed to do a little more with that Kyo weeks as we see big Collision again here underneath Starling really changing gears defensively they've given it to tango there and he's hurt Lor set a field for the Panthers now 13 1 half to go this time with yo what oh now oh he's bumped sang he's been left out here he's um he's not in great shape played by Henry Panther's 20 away Schneider tries to chip over the top and HOA he saw it coming and Schneider makes the tackle but again penth forc CRA to start a set inside their own team it's Relentless they're not at the top of their game but they fall back to this process and they're going to make camell work for any point they potentially might score long range is their only hope at the moment this is exactly what Ricky Stewart was after he just wanted to go toe to- toe physically with the with the Panthers he wanted the response he wanted the attitude shift after that disappointing performance in Townsville nothing mes last tackle FY kicks from inside the 30 spiraling away from Edwards one bounce great kick that's inside 30 to inside 30 Ricky Stewart oh oh talk about Runing moments he just needed one big bounce on there did he but he did the spin was taking it towards the the griam G lck stand just to paint the picture for people at home down at ground level the breeze behind the Panthers is only increasing and so to Rifle a torpedo downfield the way he did to get his side out of trouble the kicking game of fog gee that was a beauty that one this run back 186 we're off to Melbourne next storm doing battle with the dolphins you know what that means bam bet it live here on Fox league penth on halfway Henry is making a difference big CH he's a good L Henry 31 from the line Panthers L not quite as dominant over the last 10 minutes [Applause] Tackle by sangi on Martin Lei right up to the line dangerous Big Bounce Savage loses it Savage recovers for a knock on this is what I'm saying pen the process it's Relentless they're not at their best but this part of their game is and the composure of Jerome L is Savage there just reaching and holding the ribs it was a nasty bounce for him he attacked it had no opportunity but to attack it and look at Le here just eyeballing his teammates let's go he knows how important these next 10 minutes is for his side they've come here it's been a war through the middle and they are suffocating the Raiders absolutely strangling them and now they've got the error they are after savy janera 10 m out from Their Own Line the Raiders can they hold on 10 away from the line pen 58% of the ball and only lead by two with 10 to go SC by the bucket load from CA five away from the light they got to dig deep again allow back to Yo Henry brick wal tarpy and Starling tarpy's technique there spot on Yo with the ball keeps them guessing they don't get into his feet off his feet too often he's right up on the line play the ballell have It Go himself Raiders ready for that one that's four down penth still with the lead and the field position Schneider back for Martin angles back in field gy horber was calling for obstruction last tackle pen Lui ball intercept intercept Timo away Chase is led by Lui he'll give it to the sper Savage CRA go 100 Raiders Ricky still a pump the Raiders fans are up by the Numbers it is extraordinary that they're in front but Spirit has got them to this point Ricky Stewart we mentioned the word Ambush before the game was even kicked off just barking orders down the walkietalkie they come to this left hand side with L digs deep into the line and Under Pressure Tim M swoops Loui pressing and he sees the Ferrari on the outside Xavier Savage already got one today came up with the error that invited penri down on their line and L who has been terrific this afternoon for pen went the All or Nothing play looking for Garner and again the outside back stepping up for camra what a side it is Timo Savage the length of the field and the camber Raiders in front can you believe it no no I can't believe it I can't believe it statisticians everywhere are just shaking their head they haven't seen it in Pen's dominance four years I mean 59% of the ball 70% territory 31 tackles inside Raiders 20 Raiders have only had 10 tackles inside the Panthers 20 all game it F any logic but effort and spirit has got camra in with a shot with seven and 7 minutes and 40 to go what a great sport this is there been some tough afternoons for the Raiders faithful this year and this afternoon after well at the worst it was a bludger of a performance in Townsville last week they've come back home licking their wounds and and what tougher task than to try and turn it around against the reigning premier who have won five of their last six and marching towards another top two finish another final series and the Raiders here on Elliot whiteheads final day at goo Stadium are showing some absolute ticker roosters and sharks fans fancing what's going on here as well and by the way if the dragons and the Dolphins lose this weekend Raiders Still Still slim CH chance of final F he converts 7 and 1 half pulsating minutes to come at 228 Don ferer down on the sideline with Elliot W that's a nice moment but

play from Matt Timo and Ricky Stewart now just sitting there 7 and 1/2 minutes he's got his side in front of the premieres oh this is good stuff you're watching it live on Fox league and it's only the
