TRY CANBERRA RAIDERS
Scored by Jack Wighton. Kick to come.

Well... it *looked* like Allwood had got a hand to it constituting a knock-on... Wighton then snatched the ball and ran away with it to score. The VR has ruled "inconclusive evidence" to overturn the original on-field decision of try.

Canberra Raiders 26-12

61

Now down the other end it's a VIDEO REFEREE decision, checking whether Lote has knocked it on, or if Allwood has done so.

Canberra Raiders 22-12

Positive start for the Bunnies, Inglis flies through a gap, stopped only by an ankle tap.

Canberra Raiders 22-0

Both teams trotting out for a second half where few were expecting Souths to start 22 behind. Can they turn it around?

Canberra Raiders 22-0

HALFTIME and an outstanding showing from the Raiders against a very poor Rabbitohs side, probably the worst they've played since 2011 or earlier. The Raiders haven't beaten the Bunnies since 2009 but that stat looks likely to be overturned unless Maguire can produce a heavy spray on his boys in the sheds at the break. Join us soon for more Sunday footy!

Now a penalty to the Raiders after what looked like a strip by Canberra... a bit odd that decision.
