Post Match Warriors v Dolphins - [Round 22, 2025]

[kos]

Would love to hear any arguments to keep Ford in the team. His discipline is disgusting.

Guy tried his hardest for a zillion minutes
He s good just coach leaves him out there too long

 

[Beastmode]

Isn't that what Ford got done for?

It was lack of control and balance bullshit…

 

[tajhay]

Good effort from the boys. Whilst it would be disappointing to drop out of the top 4 by seasons end, i think we need to be realistic - we arent a top 4 team. We have jagged a lot of close games this year and havent really had a game where we put the competition on notice. That's not a slight on the team and the effort they have put into the season, they have done really well with what they have had - and surpassed most predictions preseason.

We really need to build some arsenal in attack. We can only dodge bombs and get away so many times.

666 all over again in 3 weeks time

Lot of Satanists and free falling Tom Petty's on here predicting our demise, I was quite encouraged by Healey and the young fellas giving it all until the end. Capes is our alpha now, he won't let the waka sink.

To think at the start of the season we were hearing discussions about Metcalf vs Tmm.

Here’s the moment you’ve been waiting all season for…

Spare us.. please..

While he was getting dragged down by a Dolphin. Another shit call from Special K

We did well to get back into the game and chip away at their lead. Then eventually get out in front. Who is in front at the end is what counts.

The Dolphins got over the loss of Farmworth and the Kafusi sin bin.

Like the Titans last week they weren't turnin the ball over easy.

The Dolphins had the class when it counts.

How good that a spine that started the season in nsw cup can compete against a top 8 nrl side without a host of middle forwards to lay a platform. Very impressed by the direction the club is heading and EIT didn’t look out of place at all

 

[Naynay]

Man in the bin, on there try line, they should be scoring a try. Not sure why we think going to the corner would work. They’ll always be a risk of them scoring at the end. Either that or take the 2, waste a bit of time & get the ball back. That loss hurts.

Yeah just dont think the TMM and boyd combo is up to nrl standard all good for them to bully reserve graders but they look lost in fg.

In hindsight metcalf going down was the end of our season we should start looking into next year, we have the ability to be a top 4 team at full strength so bring on 26

Really do not understand all the Ford bashing. It's as if people cannot get over his past discipline issues, which have become less and less common. That error he had tonight was absolute bs from Klein. Other than that, he was a beast for us in the middle again.

Jacko has really stood up this year. He is quite literally the only reason why our middle hasn't collapsed in a heap with the loss of Barney. He's also stood up in both games where we didn't have either Barney and JFH (Raiders game and tonight). 200+m in that Raiders game and 150m again tonight.

What more do you want him to do? He was not the reason that we lost tonight. He is just a convenient scapegoat for way too many people after every loss we have.

Talk about falling off the cliff....since the impressive win against the sharks we have been lackluster in all but the tigers game....struggling to see any wins for the remainder of the season with them falling out of the 8.

Right edge defence is the worst in the comp.....bulldogs will rip it to bits next week. Make no mistake, if herbie didn't go off injured it would have not been a close game.

Sadly, I think tonight's and last weeks losses has put the warriors season on lifesupport in regards to making the 8...especially when you see the draw for teams below.

Yeah that was bullshit. He didn't even plant the ball

What are you on about? I conceded that Metcalf was a better option. No doubt after he came good. Don’t know why you need to keep bringing up the TMM v Metcalf discussion

No one is going to disagree
Metcalf is the better player- unfortunately he’s not an option

 

[Leon Black]

I don't mind losing close games. I hate reading other clubs fans calling us -once were's & never will be's - every year. Because , the last couple of games proves their points. We fucking suck at finals footy.

Waka put things into perspective — Luka and Barney coping season ending injuries absolutely fucked our season. Add JFH, CHT, Egan, and a few others out of the side tonight and those loudmouth fans can eat a dick.

We’ll rise again. Just look at our NSW Cup dominance, back-to-back Harold Matts titles, and a never-ending production line of freakish back-rowers.

What we do need is to go out and sign some genuine speed in the outside backs. That’s the missing piece.

We’ll break our duck before 2030 — at worst. One thing tonight confirmed for me: Tanah Boyd isn’t up to this level. TMM goes missing too often. And Ford… look, I don’t hate him as much as I used to, but the guy looks like one of those dumb poms chasing the cheese wheel down that dangerous hill competition — needs a spell.

As much as some fans might not be over past discipline issues you could make a good case for the referees being the same. His name is called out a lot like they are watching him constantly.

I’m disappointed in the young jedi

Couldn't agree with you more. Maybe we are being a bit harsh because they did lose Barnett and Metcalf-two of their best players.

Webster needs to spell him. Sure he can play 80 minutes but he fatigue and cost us at times, that’s not him, that’s on the coaching team
