League players in general are the worst under a high ball

Excellent win. Good defensive effort and we actually looked like we knew how to put points on the board. SJ made a big difference in getting our pack going forward. Was pretty good error free (by Warrior standards) footy. Liked our high kick game that chasers went after.
That young Broncos fullback is going to be some player.

You won't see many passes better than this.

@stargazer said in Highlanders v Moana Pasifika:
Could have posted this in the NRL thread, too.
It's a pity, but not sure NZR had any choice when rescheduling games, considering this was one of their postponed games (round 5) and their next rescheduled game is on Tuesday.
The NRL does this all the time, unless the match Crus v Canes I'm always going to watch the rugby live and the Warriors on replay.

@stargazer yeah for a converted rugby centre looks good for a league prop, Im still looking for him to use some late footwork on someone, not surprisingly he can pass better than most of his team mates lol, but I think he will go well from what we are seeing so far.

It seems it's legal to hit our boys high.
Exciting finish to the game though.
Great to see us fight out a win after the Cowboys got away with a lot.
Some of our variation in attack was very good. SJ seems to be playing with confidence and without the huge pressure he had last time he wore a Warriors jersey.
Also good to get the win after those commentators were fluffing the Cowboys!

@act-crusader hard to believe we were actually in that contest for so long let alone win. The cowboys were by far the most dominant and should have won by a good margin as they continuously rolled us through the middle. The amount of repeat sets we cough up at the fourth or fifth tackle unfortunately probably leads the comp. However our scramble and goal line defence was some of the best i have seen from us.
Im normally bagging CHT for wayward kicks or awful attacking plays, but his touches tonight were great, massive 40/20 included and his defence saved us on a few occasions.
Th cows goal line defence was probably the worst we have come up against and let us in nearly every raid we had and given we only had a couple, magnified how bad they were in that area.
Good to win games you shouldn't, that's a good habit. Happy for the team, they will take a lot from that. Given their next two games are on the road against the Storm and the Roosters they will need all the luck they can get just to hang in there.
anyway good win
