Was all amped to fly out for my holiday this afternoon, partner told me not to watch the Warriors as it will only bring pain...she knows them all too well.

That was a bog average Chooks team and they covered us easily.

Welcome back to the Warriors Webby!

Yes we were poor on attack in the 20 but fuck me that Ref!

 

[danyooll]

Down on troops, stinking hot day, forced reshuffles on combinations


Yet still turned up for each other. Few brain farts at the end but saw enough to suggest this is a team that will get better and better.

Looking for Webbys response in the post match press conference.

How he reacts will define his coaching.

 

[tajhay]

Brave but lack smarts.

 

[leaguejunkie]

Not unhappy as the effort was definitely there. Last 10min was a little disappointing though on attack.

 

[Jaffa J]

I have never seen that many escorts in my life

 

[Mr Frank White]

I saw us improving. Kosi still too raw.

We would have been done by 40 last season.

 

[Mr Dragon]

2 games and no one gone through our forwards, the outside backs letting us down!

 

[wizards rage]

Lost interest after 10 minutes in the second half. We were not meant to win.

We could have the best team in the comp but if we’re not meant to win, we’re not going to win…

 

[Magic Stick]

Shaun Johnson play book....1. slowly drift across field to predictably drop someone off inside, 2. terrible vanilla medium high ball on the last with zero pressure

hurry back Metcalf sick of the corpse of Shaun Johnson captain cabbage

 

[Ever Hopeful]

The aim of the season is to show the resilience to stay in games when the chips are down.

We did and put ourselves in a position to win because of it.

We didn't win because we weren't good enough to convert the chances we got.

Great signs though. We have made the most important foundational change needed to be a side on the up.

Stats on six agains and penalties please

Referee just b u r n t us

 

[Beastmode]

Forwards outstanding

Backs not so good

Ref sucks balls

Despite the score line, impressed with the mental fortitude of the team to play the full 80mins and not chuck in the towel after 60

 

[Naumaifooty]

Pompey Kosi and Williame need to be dropped.
Martin not offering much aswell.

 

[Dannevegas]

Williame, Pompey and Kosi to Reggie’s, Martin too when Metcalfs back. 3 times we went to shift and our centres are 10 metres behind the play walking they can get dropped for that. And for being slow af

Not been to K Road for a while?

Shaun Johnson kicks did nothing for me!
