LFC8, you missed a battling and determined display by our boys on Sunday

Good to get that first win on the board. Hopefully we can move forward again this week v Adel Vikings

Will you be there to watch??

Good win yesterday by the Raptors boys to follow up last weeks victory.
That’s two wins in a row which now puts us up to third

Game versus top-of-the-table West Beach will be a good indicator as to where were at.

And with a few key players set to return over the next two/three weeks, we should be looking stronger.

B's though have hit a 'slump'. 1 point from 4 games isnt the start we were hoping for

Yes Maxi great result. Fantastic effort by the all the boys all day yesterday. As you said this weeks game v top should be good indicator. Great to see JM back. Hope TK will be fit this week to put the boots on.
B's are struggling and need to bounce back pretty quickly. If someone didn't miss a penalty yesterday maybe the result might of been different :roll:

Important game this weekend against our 'bogey' side Plympton.

Hopefully we can continue our good form and show the same amount of grit and determination to take away the points against the Bulldogs, who no doubt will want to get on the board for season 2007

great performance to come away with a convincing win against Plympton, who have given us some beatings over the last couple of seasons. Good all round effort and puts in a good position

LFC8, you missed a good night on Saturday.

not really anytime soon LFC8. hopefully will be able to start some running in a couple of weeks, but im just about ready to give up on season 2007, and get myself fully right for next year

but depends how things go over the next 3-4 weeks. ive still got a bit of work to do to strengthen my knee up

Hey LFC8,
Hope your recovering well.

Not sure if you saw all of yesterdays game, but it wasnt the same Raptors side out on the park as in previous weeks - attitude just wasnt right and we got punished for it

Missed a good chance to go equal top and 5 points clear. Wouldve given us some breathing room.

Thx Maxi and hope your getting there too.

I left just after half time and yeah the spark wasn't there. Very tough game against SK this week. But then on the other hand every game in this Div is going to be tough.

terribly dissapointing fellas today. I thought we had the knights all over the park. with wet conditions it makes it very hard to judge the ball. lets call a spade a spade..after 3-4 years we concede very preventable goals from lack of positioning and not being prepared to take a knock.

strange take on the game, call a spade a spade and say you were beaten by a better team! We hit the underside of the bar twice and but for a 15 minute spell dominated - take those glasses off - we have been beaten by better sides this year but a draw would have been injustice

i thought it was a fairly even contest. both sides had their chances but knights were good enough to take theirs. (though conceding these 'soft' goals from defensive lapses is becoming increasingly frustrating)

it was a well played game aswell. a difficult pitch, but there were no dirty tackles, no dramas and it was well refereed

i thought it couldve gone either way, but good on the knights for the win

Special mention should go to the Cs though on their 13-1 win - which i believe is a club record! :D

And good on the b's for getting another win under their belts. Hopefully its onward and upward from here
