'Wighton time': Raiders star's huge statement as bizarre Walsh call under fire — Big Hits.

“Jacko is a wonderful player, plays of instinct… “Irrespective of personalities or whatever you have got against your player over there at the Warriors, Reece Walsh is the kind of player you need to have on there,” Roach said. “His second for the game, Jack Wighton producing big plays when the Raiders need him most,” Warren Smith said. After kicking his first of the night, Matt Timoko was able to orchestrate the Raiders first try of the night. “The short ball from Shaun Johnson was a beauty, was a pearler.” “What a start for the Warriors,” Steve Roach said.

Rookie back James Schiller is a chance of being available after missing the Warriors game with an ankle injury. “The excitement got me, I think it was when Corey Harawira-Naera went over for his try, I went down and tore a calf. Wighton took full advantage of the inexperience of Chanel Harris-Tavita at fullback, and wing Marcelo Montoya's tendency to play well up the field, to burn the Warriors.

Warriors surrender 14-point lead; lose to Canberra Raiders (New Zealand Herald)

If anyone needed a reminder why the Warriors can be the most frustrating team in New Zealand sport, this was it. Producing their best first half of the ...

But that clean sheet didn't last long, with Albert Hopoate diving across in the 41st minute, after a Wighton 40/20 created the opportunity. The Warriors made a dream start, with two tries in the first eight minutes. From the next set, a towering Daejarn Asi kick had Raiders fullback Xavier Savage befuddled as it bounced off his head. The visitors also got no favours from the officials, with several debatable calls. But they were their own worst enemies and unable to defend lapses as the Raiders scored three tries in an eight-minute second half period. The Warriors only have pride to play for, but while they pushed the Raiders to the limit, their failure to punish Canberra's first-half errors was ultimately costly.
