Oh that was awesome.

Raiders are an exciting team to watch when they play like that in attack..

It's the worst trend in the game.

If you're taking on a great defensive outfit like Melbourne, Sydney or Canterbury I could understand it but against a team like Canberra that struggle defensively but have points in them, I don't understand it.

Now the Raiders score through Lee. Great work from Wighton to get his arm free and fling it over.

That was an interesting decision...

Cowboys get a couple of repeat sets, piling on the pressure on one of the worst defensive sides in the comp and then they decide to take the two..

I thought they would have been better off taking them on again.

But I guess 6 points is better than 4.

I hate the going for 2 thing almost more than anything else in the NRL at the moment. With the kind of attacks these teams have and the kind of defence too, just go for tries.

Sam Williams has to be one of the nicest blokes playing the game. He gets smashed, everyone rushes to fight, he just walks away.

Am I the only one seeing small hints of burnout in the Cows play? After that many games in a row, it has to be taking its toll

Jeez, 6 straight penalties for the Cowboys and none against them in this second half..

You can't say they have been perfect with their discipline..

Ricky's going to go off his nut in the press conference at this rate.

Why is no one running off Papalii looking for offloads?

They have been getting him one on one with his opposite, but he has no one to offload to.

Great work from Wighton to bat the arm.

I think that was a sin bin offense..

Blatantly took out a Raiders player in the air to stop a try..

That should be a professional foul.

But given the modern interpretation of sin-bins, a penalty was fair enough.
