    Roosters win 42-6 and the Warriors need to start testing some new guys.

    Time to get ready for the NFL season....

    Well the reverse jinx worked.......

    For 5 minutes.

    Glad a mate turned up so didn’t watch after we opened the scoring, though it was on in the background.

    Glad I had a movie to go to so had to miss from 20 odd to 42.

    What a mixed weekend, ABs do the business - yay, Warriors get thumped - shrug my shoulders, but Magpies get a draw but blow a win - I'm still angry about it.

    And, following from the AFL thread, Nathan Brown sacked by the knights as well.

    Coaches at St George, the Warriors, and North Queensland shuffle their feet fearfully, and try to look as inconspicuous as possible

    Considering the Knights have the Panthers, the Tigers, and the Titans to finish, you could easily see them making the 8.

    It might be one of the few things he's had to smile about this season

    FYI, I much prefer he look like this:

    But, he seems to be a protected species at the Warriors.

    I want to blow up, but i actually find it hard to disagree with most of it. I would have Luke Lewis starting over fucking Cordner though

    also, what the fuck is this?

    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/league/news/article.cfm?c_id=79&objectid=12260153

    It's everyone's fault except the people tasked with identifying players, bringing in players, preparing players, and selecting players. Oh, and deciding how we play. Fuck me dead, is this dickhead serious?

    No accountability amongst the fish heads at the top. Warriors are poison from the top down

    I just read a stat that said we have only scored one try from inside our own half all year. That can't be true.

    Found an article

    2 tries all year from 40m or more.

    Stat Attack: Who rules NRL roost for long-range tries

    Stat Attack: Who rules NRL roost for long-range tries

    The Eels and the Roosters are the two most dangerous sides at launching attacking raids from within their own half, just ahead of Manly and Melbourne.

    Pretty clear correlation between being good, and being able to score from a fair way out.

    one more on this shitshow. Tony Iro has been an assistant coach at the Warriors since 2010. For an average finish of 10th. He's under his 5th coach.

    How exactly does one keep his job under those sort of circumstances

    I don't know how much of this is true so just consider it as speculation. My mate who is related to 2 former warriors has said that Iro is like the Islander whisperer.....

    Whatever he's whispering it ain't working!!!

    The impression I got on the keeping the faith doco was that Cleary was very good at working with the PI players, especially Manu who seemed to have genuine affection for him. Pity we let him go all for the sake of one fucking year on his contract

    @mariner4life There's a leaguie forum I occasionally frequent and they spent two years hailing Cameron George as the messiah. They appear to have gotten over that now.

    Is that SBW on the bench? I'm pretty astounded that two Kiwis made that team - well three if count that turncoat b'stard Taumalolo.

    I've got Jamie Lyon ahead of Hodges at centre. Lyon was the most skillful and most rounded centre I've seen.

    Lyon has won 4 Dally M Centre of the Year awards in this decade. Hodges only has one Dally M Centre of the Year award, but that wasn't even in this decade(2007).

    @Nepia Yeah, that's SBW. Pretty good by him to make the team despite only playing 2 seasons in this decade.

    RTS made the bench for the Team of the Decade 2nd XVII.
