PENALTY WAHS: Corey Horsburgh done for laying in the ruck.

Canberra tried a trick play and it backfired as badly as an uncertified bungee jump. Rocco Berry sprints up field starting the set for the Wahs in good position.

Fogarty knocked it backwards, but again, referee in good view and makes the right decision on that one.

The short dropout was batted back and then was knocked on by Luke Metcalf. Todd Smith in great position to make that call, and looks correct to me!

Berry failed to take it in the in-goal was then batted dead by the man in question.

Walker limping with the trainer, playing on for the moment. Niukore went off for a HIA if your just joining us!

Wighton tried to capitalise on some rare good field position, however is effort to reach out was judged to have been a knock on.

Canberra have looked good at times tonight, they just need to creat second phase centered around Papalii and Tapine.

Marcelo Montoya brought the crowd to their feet when he broke down the left touch-line but the final pass went astray when Luke Metcalf couldn't handle it and left points off the board.

Todd Smith calls it a knock on from Albert Hopoate in the contest - looks correct as it always is with the man in red tonight.

PENALTY RAIDERS Slow peel against Rocco Berry.

That kick from Wighton is OUT on the FULL! Has been an unhappy start for him tonight!

Have a feeling Berry and Pompey are playing for their futures tonight with the news RTS will be playing centre upon his return to the Warriors next season.

Warriors try to push their luck but have showed their attacking flare. Rocco Berry's pass goes astray.

SIX AGAIN WAHS: Too slow.

Crowd really getting behind their side in the early exchanges.

PENALTY WARRIORS: Out of play pick up which sees Jack Wighton not retreat beyond the point of the play the ball.

Warriors get to the end of their set!

Croker pushes the pass and Albert Hopoate puts it down. Opportunity squandered!

Chanze puts it down and they get 6 to go the Raiders. A big chance for the Green Machine so early in the contest!
