RAPANA KICKS THE FIELD GOAL!!! THE RAIDERS WIIIIIIIIIN!!!
RAPANA KICKS THE FIELD GOAL!!! THE RAIDERS WIIIIIIIIIN!!!
Isaako misses wide
SIX AGAIN DOLPHINS
RAPANA MISSES IT ON THE BELL
Katoa goes for it all. Rapana and he go shoulder to shoulder and Canberra will have a 7 tackle set and a minute to win it
We're off to the video referee. Katoa claiming he was run off the ball by Rapana. Hold your breathe
HERBIE IS BACK
A touch saves the game for the Raiders. Isaako's field goal is touched wide
A challenge can't same Sasagi who loses the ball
Jamayne Isaako nails the field goal but a Math Plath blocker means penalty Canberra
Max Plath with the charge down. Dolphins a chance here
Frantic finish but we're off to Golden Point
RAPANA SQUARES US UP AGAIN!!!
Canberra with the ball. 85 metres from home
Weekes misses the looooong field goal attempt
Challenge unsuccessful. Right call. Worth a crack I suppose
Penalty Canberra. Jack Bostock pushes Tapine off the ball.... CHALLENGE
Dolphins go 60 and have the Raiders pinned after the kick
The Dolphins go early and Isaako lands the one pointer. Brilliant set up and finish
Katoa on fire here. A huuuuge 40/20 has the Dolphins on the attack
Tapine takes a hit up on the last tackle. Dolphins escape. Horrible set
Ray Stone with a crucial error coming out of his own end. Canberra on the attack
AAALLL SQAURE!!!! From the sideline
Kurt Donoghoe scores in the corner. The bomb was tapped back and JMK shifts it to the unmarked utility.
Rapana was a million to one to catch a huge bomb from Katoa. Knock on and here come the Dolphins
Fuller comes off for a HIA. Unfortunate but what an amazing tackle from the fullback
Joseph Tapine almost bursts straight through. Trai Fuller puts his body on the line and gets the job done but his night looks to be over
Kaeo Weekes drops the ball after being leg dropped by Jordan Rapana
The Dolphins fullback fails to handle the kick from Matt Timoko. Dolphins under attack here
Canberra lead by 6 as Rapana nails the conversion.
KAEO WEEKS goes himself and scores a brilliant individual try. On the fifth tackle he burns Katoa and scores out wide. Magnificent from the youngster
Josh Kerr knocks on. Katoa then gives away a penalty. Awful from the Phins
PENALTY Dolphins. Savage probably saves a try and probably should have gone to the sin bin by tackling Isaako off the ball.
Kenny Bromwich with the grubber ... Not a typo. Canberra bringing it off their own line
Weakes puts it over the sideline on the full. Dolphins ball 40 out
Unlucky but that will go against Kris
A lapse in concentration sees Kerr put the ball down
Cotric grabbing at an ankle. Hip drop???
Jesse Bromwich ruled out with a rib injury. Far better than the suspected pec injury
We are all locked up again as Isaako guides it through from beside the posts
This is a tough one to describe. A knock on, in goal by the Raiders leads to a try to the Dolphins centre!!!
Kris knocks on from the high ball. He was nowhere near that
Teams going set for set until the Phins earn a six again. On the attack
Entertaining game this. Canberra lead 18-12 but this could be anything in the second stanza. Join us in 10-or-so minutes
AWFUL pass from Morgan Smithies. It's called forward and we're off to the break
Kurt Donoghoe on report for a high tackle
Savage, who had plenty of open space, drops the ball. Oh no!
KAEO WEEKES with a monster tackle
Six more for the Phins who are on the attack
Rapana nails his most difficult kick.
Whitehead breaks two tackles, spins and scores from close range. Power football from the Raiders
Milford on report for leaning his head on the down player. Dumb from an experienced player
PENALTY Canberra. The error is compounded and Canberra will be in the attack
A huuuuuuge tackle from Xavier Savage forces the error
Jesse Bromwich ruled out
Trey Mooney's first touch isn't a happy one
A poor kick from Katoa gives away a seven tackle set
FROM THE SIDELINE!!!
Jack Boston scores from a Herbie Farnworth offload. Can't take your eyes off the Englishman
Rapana kicks it into Row C and the Dolphins have the ball 10 out
Milford forces a dropout with a clever kick
Unfortunate for the lock. Bad pass in the conditions and Smithies can't handle
Rapana nails the conversion from beside the posts
Mariota rolls through the defence and scores. Brilliant stuff from the second rower
Bostock drops the contested high ball. Canberra on the attack
PENALTY Canberra. Tide has turned
Right down the middle from Rapana. All square!!!
The Raiders winger FLIIIIEEESSS above Trai Fuller to bring down the bomb and scores under the sticks.
Marshall King super dangerous out of dummy half. Brilliant set post points from THE
Too easy from beside the posts
The Dolphins take full advantage of the 40/20 and it's JMK who goes over beside the posts
INCREDIBLE kick by the youngster who nails the perfect 40/20
Canberra throwing the ball around despite the rain. Green Machine take it 87 metres but are tackled just short of the line. Entertaining set.
Katoa with an awful kick and Canberra are gifted a seven tackle set
PENALTY Dolphins
Jesse Bromwich is hurt after a poor offload. Raiders on the attack
Kayo looks a million dollars despite the rain. Teams going set for set here
Canberra receive. Hit ups will be the order of the night. Conditions are far from ideal
Raining pretty hard at Kayo Stadium but I'm expecting/hoping for an open game. Kick off in five minutes
