Post Match Warriors v Manly - [Round 6, 2024]

[KPWarrior]

Manly is our nemisis, always have been always will be for mine, should be our new ANZAC day opponents.

 

[Ever Hopeful]

What's with all the hamstring injuries? There are so many this year, and another two tonight

 

[Te Mana-wah]

Feel like someone brought ice cream home, turned out to be neopolitan and by the time I got to it all that was left was vanilla…

Bloody gold this comment Got me in my feels

 

[Worried2Death]

Tough watch, brilliant game though. Props to Cherry, he's a genius, he'll he gutted with the draw. Cant blame the ref, only missed about 100 knock-ons so he was up to his usual standard.

 

[PNG Kiwi]

A draw was a fair reflection on the game.
Not RTS best game but I am confident he will get a lot better.
Ford can be a coach killer, and I feel needs a break to refocus.
Sorry for Jazz as I felt he was warming up.
We will get better.

 

[Deranged]

If they outplayed us they would have won.

We had them on the rack both sides of the ball on multiple occasions and committed absolute coach killers.

Ok.

Manly will see it as a lost opportunity. It would have been good to come across here in front of a big crowd to get 2 points. Teams will have to be on to get over us this year.

Our guys will need to improve. Expect next week to be better.

They will also take some confidence that they managed to fight back from 16-0 down. They turned things around in the Storm game as well. I'll stop talking about that game now.

Never thought I’d say this but Pompey is a better centre than RTS in our system. Not once did he take advantage of two manly makeshift centres. He can’t pass and and he can’t set anything up. He’s also making errors.

Love RTS but he needs to figure it out

I do agree that he hasn't done enough yet but I think about now I predicted whether I'd still be on the Roger is a centre train but I'm still on it and only on his past achievements. I have no evidence to support him there except that he is Roger and his possible ceiling Is stellar. But I agree with you.

 

[Makasene]

We will soon see if Lussick was penalised for the injury or not.

Luke Patten publicly stated during the week that injury is taken into consideration.

Don't know Aloai's loading but would think that is 1 or 2 weeks max, maybe even just a fine

 

[Hman]

Take the competition point Manly offered us and run, thanks Manly!

CNK was immense as was Barnett. Why does it always look like we play in mud at Mt smart? Everything is so slow and clunky. It’s almost a disadvantage to be home. The surface doesn’t suite our style at all.

Are other surfaces different? All blacks games even when it’s wet still feel fast at eden park for example.

It’s like he’s trying to play like the RTS people expect instead of the centre that he needs to be.

 

[the WARs]

Manly let go of 16-0, then 22-20 with 1 second left.

I thought we were going to do a Storm Rnd 2.

I haven't been that disappointed and also so excited in one game this year though. Way more so than that Storm game.

It's just simple handling errors that game. I think Laban should get more game time. It's ok for Ford or Capewell to play 65 mins. It will preserve their bodies for the later rounds.

Draw. I'll take it.

Laban didn't do all that much for his time ..but I agree against weaker teams like the Dragoons & Tits ..why not give him more time along with CHT

Thanks for confirming that it would still also be.

Sent off plus 4 weeks vs 1-2 weeks. Which is still pretty rough when you look at two similar incidents.

My main concern with Lussick's suspension is if Egan goes down. Well we are one week down. Now we just need to get through the next 3.

I wish we did a Storm round 2. And that was when I was so excited and disappointed in the same game.

 

[Beastmode]

Yeah gotta let him ease back into this role, he was a bit shocking today but it’s growing pains at this point. Can’t expect him to immediately go guns blazing setting up tries and beating his man everytime. He’s still the best option everytime.

He’s struggling at C though

Don’t think he’s had a statement game yet in that position

FB obviously his most comfortable spot

CNK had another eye watering game. His run metres man…
+300m

 

[WarriorsForever]

I’ve lost my voice, I’m soaking wet, got beer all over me from the blokes behind me but that’s why I make the round trip up from Taupo for every home game. I wouldn’t have it any other way. Through thick and thin I fu**ing love this club.

 

[Makasene]

We will have to count the injury crisis.

I wonder whether they would consider RTS to 13, Pompey to centre. Tohu to prop

Otherwise you nearly have to go with a Zyon Maiu’u debut. Some saying he doesn't look ready based on NSW Cup.

Honestly I reckon he’d be fun as edge forward . Imagine him running of SJ and standing cunts up instead of ford who can only run straight.

As a positive, they spanked the champs last week.

We forced a draw out of them.
