Looks like Mannering is out with injury- Matulino in at lock. Manu might be back as well in favour of Maumalo.

A shocking 2nd half. No respect for the ball and some matador defence to go with it.
-
The Warriors (like the Kiwis) lose the tackle contest and have slow play the balls, have runners consistently hitting the ball behind the advantage line, and have the worst kicking game in the competition. Until they get those basics right they will always stuggle even when they have incrediblely talented players. How do you look lose a game when you are 22 points up? Worst of all they were gone after 60 minutes. For a professional sports team they were terrible. The worst performance ever.

Some thoughts:
-
Didn't see the game but saw score updates on my phone ,
Even that was strange watching , wtf happened ?
-
Fuck the Warriors.
Hopeless fluffybunnies.
Their entire existence compressed in to one game
-
wow, social media going nuts with people burning jersies and going off

I need feminism because the Warriors tackle like spastic girls

Every team has a game like that, but Warriors fans must expect them. There's something horribly wrong with the culture of the club. So many players just look lazy and disinterested.

Sack the coach!

Sorry lads, only tuned in for the second half and look how that turned out.
Funny thing is that as soon as the Panthers had scored two tries you could see the Warriors getting run down. They can accelerate to implosion faster than any team I've watched.
A few guys showed effort but on the whole only 2-3 of the squad ran out to play footie in that second half. What a fucking mare.
I know the tempo was cranked up but how can we be so deep in the season and have guys still struggling for fitness?

The club is cursed. Simple as that.
It's a psychological curse that no roster, coaching staff or management can seem to fix. For some reason when things are suppose to be easy, like winning yesterday, they make it extremely difficult. Now, Penrith are a talented side (with a shit coach) but the Warriors should have won easily by 12+ points even if the Panthers turned up in the second half.
I wonder if Te Maire Martin wants to sign with us now.

We need to hark back to the last glory years of the club. Who were the pillars that the team were built on? Price and Wiki. Mannering is great but he can't do it alone, Hoffman is that type of tough player but past his best. Our players are not professional enough and need senior guys to set the bar higher. When the game starts to slide we need a couple of guys with sufficient mana to be able to turn our pack of surrender monkeys around. The sooner we can do this the sooner we will have a decent foundation to build around
