The problem with the Raiders is there backs take the first 3 hit ups of every bloody set meaning they can never go wide early. They need to play more direct both sides of the ruck early in the set and not have so many dummy half runs. They are better leaving Rapana and Cotric on the wings and going wide after a quick play the ball on tackle 2 or 3 instead of just plodding down the field. Their forwards have a lot to answer for. They should be the most intimidating pack in the comp yet they are ranked 14th for meters gained.
Also great effort from MCinnes in defence tonight. If Jake friend made that many tackles you would hear about it all night. Dont think it was mentioned once tonight. All that defence is taking away from his attack though. One run all night and he dropped the ball with that run. They have forwards who can play big minutes. Better off going with a utility on the bench and giving mcinnes a 10 min spell to bring back his attacking game otherwise they wont be playing finals and the Panthers will run them down.
