It was a cold night in hell for the ponies tonight.

They caught us on the Hurrell rebound, and got.........

soundly beaten.

 

[Apus]

Great to see some positive footy again! Feels like we found our identity. For the last while we've just felt so...soulless it's nice to see a reversal. Long may it continue!

 

[jsmooove]

was on the nrl subreddit during the game. alot of broncos fans having a whinge about an NZ ref.

feels good.

although i thought perenara was alright

good win,

Im surprised those Broncos players backed up from SOO. Boyd showed some character in the aftermatch interview, not using it as an excuse.

 

[Grunta]

Thanks boys for returning our faith in you. Kata my man of the match because he runs straight and aggressively. That run over the top of Boyd reminds me of Lomu.

So what we witnessed here to day:

We played our traditional game. Freestyle attack. Offloading whenever it's on. Guys doing what they are good at doing.

But our defense was on form as well. It was scramble, unstructured, but structured at the same time...

Guys working for each other, helping out where they could... Very heart warming indeed.


Shaun Johnson is our best player. And when everyone else supports him we win... It's really that simple..

But we've got loads of x factor in our back line. Lolohea, Kata, Fusitua and the Beast can all make something out of nothing..

Ayshford is the stabilizing force amongst all that genius...

Luke was good, and I reckon this is why he came here...

Our forwards were running hard on attack and defense. That's really what won us the game...

The broncos were backing up after origin, but we still played well. Best game for us this year by far...

Oooooaaarrrrrrrr..

We won - good.

Next week - do it again.

If not - Back to square one

 

[Mr. Muller]

Leuluai needs to gtfoh

 

[Miket12]

Bully had one of his best games in the Warriors jersey.

 

[Jordan G]

One thing we absolutely have to do is maintain that intent in attack. We actually had players running up in numbers and as a result the opposition couldn't gang tackle. Even the few times they started to get a few tacklers into it we would just pass a couple wide, give the skill guys early ball and let them see what they can create.

 

[Jordan G]

Leuluai needs to gtfoh

Had a couple of poor moments, but he wasn't bad.

The important thing about this game was forwards going forward and Shaun Johnson playing both sides.

 

[kurgal]

I'm speechless

And for the first time in ages - in a GOOD way

 

[koolkat]

Thank you,stick to playing has a team.we got ya back

 

[Ziggity]

That was a really enjoyable win. It's nice to get positive feelings from supporting the team for once. If we can just keep this attitude...sigh...if we make the 8 and get into that mindset, we could trouble a lot of teams. I'm gonna keep the faith cuz warriors4lyfe

Broncos definitely not at their best but that was our best performance of the year for mine, especially that first half. Few soft tries but lots of positive signs in defence. Just gotta keep it up boys.

 

[Worried2Death]

And so it begins. The Origin resurgence... 20 minutes to go in round 26 and we only need the win to make the 8. We all know what happens next.

 

[OMG]

20k forum big bucks on 13+ could I please get that in ones.

Where dem Princess trolls at now, fuckers.
That was a Captains knock and Im not talking about the Captain, Lolo nice work, I still don't know where to play him.

MoM- The Greatest rest in peace CHAMP

 

[mode81]

That's why I farkeen love these cu**s when they play our style of footy. No motherfuckizz can go with us when we play like that. Brilliant.

No team can play the way our team plays when their on form like that. Tui sizzling.. Shaun Johnson magical, defence exceptional.

Shaun Johnson & Luke Co Captains. That's the way to go. Been on repetitive mode mentioning that everywhere.

BTW, Get over Konnie you munters, he's a Titan now, he's our farkin enemy. Less said about him the better. New era.

Onwards & upwards .. most likely back to a loss next week such is the fickleness of being a Warriors supporter.

 

[Tyrael]

Was in the crowd. 15K...great turn out.

What I liked was that the kicking was distributed and not just on Johnson.

Lolohea needs longer sprigs.

MoM the whole team
