🤖 AI Summary

📝 Summary:

The Warriors secured a gritty Round 4 victory over the Tigers despite challenging wet conditions and multiple defensive lapses. Teenage forward Halasima stole the spotlight with a spectacular 70-meter solo try, with a user #69 comparing it to iconic club tries and others highlighting how the sequence involved crucial support play from Leiataua and Tuapiki #188. Ed Kosi delivered a standout redemption performance, earning praise from fans #111 for his error-free display, 207 running meters, and improved aerial skills, which shifted perceptions after earlier criticism.
Controversy surrounded refereeing decisions, particularly the late penalty for a high shot on Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad that sealed the win; user #278 noted the tackler faced subsequent charges, while debates erupted over the legitimacy of the call versus perceived gamesmanship. Critical analysis emerged about the team's defensive vulnerabilities when key forwards Fisher-Harris and Barnett were absent #172, and Erin Clark was repeatedly hailed as a pivotal signing for his relentless contributions in the middle #32. Some members expressed concerns over halves cohesion and attacking structure but acknowledged the significance of grinding out close wins—a marked improvement from previous seasons #66.

Guys don’t seem to appreciate how tough that win was.

In the rain, against one of the NRLs twin favourites at their home ground, with a ref who let the Tigers away with plenty.
That ref was pretty fair in my eyes, Frank. The way he handled the Leka/May incident had me thinking a penalty for the tigz at one stage there.

Got to Love hearing the staunch Warrior fans in amongst Campbelltown Sports Stadium. Big Ups to All you mfers!

I thought Tigers were going to come home strong after what looked like a 24-12 lead with 20 odd to go, had a mini tangy and turned off the tv just after the disallowed try (didn’t know it was disallowed) before clocking back in thankfully- glad I did
Stoked to see some composure from our lads the last few games where Warriors of the past would have wilted we have hung in there and gotten the win. We desperately needed that coming into the bye followed by Storm and Broncs following, these are those 4 point swings we need to win by denying similar placed teams wins
Don't worry I had one at a similar time.

Ended up taking my jersey off. Well I put my Warriors singlet on ready for bed instead.

But my wife did ask if the game had finished. I grumpily mumbled about F'n losing. Try disallowed and like Wayne's World. Game On!.

Glad I was proven wrong.

The tigers attacking structure is going to develop into something pretty scary.

They’ll become better as the season goes on.

This was a monumental win, considering how we put points on the board.
 
We didn't deal with the restructure well when Kosi was HIA. Got lucky a couple a times, conceded from a kick.

I thought the ref gave them momentum we didn't deal with too well. But unlike last year we came over the top. 10% more grit this year.
I reckon the 10% more grit is all Fisher-Harris's influence this year. No one messes with The Fush, everyone knows it. Why? Because he's baddest mofo in the game that's why.
It's hard to sleep after a Sunday night game, I'm wired up like a crack addict after that. I'll be tossing and turning all night with visions of Leka running down the sideline like fukn Lomu and Ed Kosi smashing blokes, his turning arc is still a work in progress but can't fault his ariel skills, good game son, that's my boy. Gave it an A for sheer entertainment.
 
lol, how did we win that, not going to claim the tigers are that good, they bombed some and were down on troops - they showed a lot of ticker though.

Just as well metcalf kicks his goals, cos he couldn’t unlock an open door at the moment with the ball - Egan set up 2, Pompey and halasima individual efforts.

NRL is run by such clowns with their head contact rules. Though if ed did that to Luai you can guess what the outcome would’ve been.

Ed did nothing wrong the rest of the game either.
