So we are not only guaranteed to get the win, but injure them too!

Raiders attack was pretty ordinary today.

Top 4 after Round 12. Not in a million years could any of us have predicted that in the off season, never mind after Round 4 when this place was ready to blow its brains out.

 

[GCBRONCO]

LETS GO BRONCOS!

Crazy to think Kevvie might have persisted with turpin and Niu had they not gotten injured.

Kevvie is a big part of the resurgence. Regardless of the team he picks he knows more than anybody on this forum..

Why don't we have a v the bye thread. I think with our outs we might struggle against that team

Oh ye of little faith...

Raiders have been going well lately and I don't for one second think we're suddenly a top 4 team after putting away a few teams who will struggle to crack the 8 themselves

Yeah, but it's not like Raiders have been putting away strong teams either. They have won 4 of their past 5 but they have been against struggling teams and teams hit with injuries.

If we turn up and play like we did in the second half against Titans, plus the added advantage of playing at home, this game is very winnable.

It's going to come down to whether the Broncos turn up or not. We have a tendency to struggle after a bye.

Charges:

Flegler gets a fine with an early plea:

Jordan Riki (Broncos)	Grade 1 Dangerous Contact	TBC	$1000-$1500 fine
Thomas Flegler (Broncos)	Grade 1 Dangerous Contact	TBC	$3000 fine-2 match ban

You have to feel for Flegs here. He's obviously set the platform for it to some extent, but they clearly scrutinise him on every play and basically loses a lot of his hard earned wages from it. In this case, 3k for a clumsy bit of bad luck that really would have not been looked at if Tino hadn't stayed down. I don't know, I don't think you can really "coach" that out of him or deter him from repeating it in this case.

Once again, if it were consistently applied to every player across every minute of play, I would be much more accepting of such things.
