Anyone else watch this game?
This would have to be the gutsiest win ever from my beloved Raiders in the 16 years I've been following them, what a miraculous field goal in extra time to win.
WOOHOO!!!!! :D

Cowboys and Broncos must hate it every year when Origin comes around...

Welcome to Canberra's world in the late 80s early 90s, except we lost our team to both NSW and QLD and not just a few players to one state's side.

Having said that, with the differences in climates and the way the teams are doing the Cowboy's reserves should have been able to beat the Raiders, and watching most of the 2nd half they had most of the running but the Raiders had the heart to hang in there.
One of the best NRL games I've watched for a long long time.

Good weekend as my beloved Leeds Rhinos knocked off their Yorkshire brothers 30-0 in Yorkshire last night! :D

At least they didn't play in deep fog, like the guys in the Super 14 final in NZ.
