Bridgey came our firing kicking the first 4 of the game in about 10 minutes before Nairne woke up. After that the Rams controlled it for most of the day, with Bridgey coming at them in spurts. A couple injuries to key players didn't help the raiders but nairne were definitely the better side!
One of their backmen, had stupid hair with blonde bits going everywhere, was easily the best player on the ground, kept Wakefield unusually quiet and racked them up himself! Craig Evans was still great for Bridgey. Be interesting to see how good their depth is now with a few key injuries!
I hope the fella with the broken jaw is doing alright.
Heard Bridgewater had no rotations left in the last quarter? Saw the video of the clash where the Bridgey bloke broke his jaw - OUCH!!!
Hasn't been a great finals series for the Raiders injury wise. Steve Smith busted a collarbone in week 1 and CHF Sam Foutoulis did a hammy (didn't play against Nairne). Then on Saturday after kicking the first 4 goals, John McDonald limps off for the rest of the game and CHB Ben O'Donnell fractures his jaw in 2 places.
Will be a test of depth this week against Ironbank for sure.
There wont be a better chance for Narine to win a flag with them being at full strength and Bridgey & Ironbank having a few key personnel out.
Should be a cracker this weekend, obviously if John mcdonald doesn't get up that is a massive out which adds to smith already being out. Ironbank are without Coach Wendleborn & Chris Schneider which also hurts them.
