Jesus the bandwagon is real
More.and more faces turning up in a warriors game thread
Welcome back guysI was watching on my phone at my sons soccer game. I turned off when they forced that goal line drop out with 2.30 on the clock thinking we had it in the bag.
Started driving only for the notification to come through on my watch about Golden Point?! The fuck??!! Would have been furious if we didn't bank those 2 points. Up until that point it was a fine performance. Couple of close saves, but we forced Canberra to make a few as well.
Good win considering both halves had some very ropey moments in attack

And the Broncos hammer souths
If the bunnies really are a one man team all of a sudden they aren't going far in September even if they make it.
Brisbane are in this up to their eye balls

@bayimports warriors v cowboys GF and I'll see you there!!!
-
@mariner4life given that would mean no Sydney teams we could probably easily find tickets too!

Watching that match last night, you could argue Brisbane is also a one kid team as well. Remove Walsh’s involvement and Souths probably win. They look good though although old Marty Tapau needs to keep his Moulin Rouge impressions off the field
-
Watched press conferences for teams that lost last night. Jason Demetriou for South’s was all class. Didn’t labour ref decisions e.g should Martin Taupau have been sent off?, just talked about the Club coming together to get more consistent performances from the team. Whereas Ricky Stuart was all petulance. Face like a wet sock. Answered about 2 questions, mostly to have a crack at refs and then left abruptly. He seems like just an angry man all the time. Dallin brushed the guys face as he came done on the ball/hands of Kris to get the knock on. Hardly a sure thing.
But he did make some complementary comments about Andrew Webster and success he is having.

What's with this game! Sharks absolutely brilliant the last 10-15
-
Well unusually things went the Warriors way. Not only did they hold on to win a game they would have historically lost some other results went our way.
Weird weekend in some respects with Newcastle beating Melbourne and the Sharks losing to Manly means we hold third on the ladder...Even the Roosters showed signs of life which although I don't think they make any finals, they could still knock others over including helping us further up the ladder..could even Newcastle sneak into the final eight?
Souths fans still cursing Freddy for not only screwing NSW, but having Latrell injured at his training..they were not the same without him, although apparently a certainty next week though
-
Cowboys are flying. Still have to play the top 2, but at least the Broncs at home, and the Panthers i the last round who may be resting players. Still a chance at the top 4 somehow.
Souths could easily win out given their draw
-
@mariner4life Drinkwater absolutely carving it up, will be interesting to see if you can maintain momentum without Nanai for approx 4-6 weeks.
Certainly all teams need some luck with injuries too at this time of year
-
The EBA dispute is getting really fucking silly
Obviously talks have completely broken down.
Players stopped talking to the media
Clint Newton is meeting with fucking union bosses in Victoria
And now the players are going to cover the NRL logo, and maybe boycott the Daly M'sNow, i won't side with the governing body over the players pretty much ever, and i am not here either.
But the players are doing a lot of empty shit that most people just do not care about, but also crucially cost them nothing.
You really want to show how committed you are? Go on strike. Actually sacrifice something if you really want to show you support the little guy. -
Thursday night went as per ladder position
The Roosters had a dig but they are levels below the Broncos and were slapped. The scoreline looks bad as it is, let alone if you add the try that was incorrectly taken off Staggs, and the one where the ref made the tackle right in the line.
Storm v Parra tonight is huge for both teams seasons
-
@mariner4life Things have gone really stale at the Roosters. They need a bit of a clean out truth be told, with some guys being kept on way too long. Yes, they did have a dig last night, but Brisbane were more than up for it and just ran over the top of them, with Carrigan and Haas constantly punching holes through their defence.

Huge problems in the spine
Tedesco is cooked
Keary isn't good enough to lead the side
I don't know who the other half is
Cheese is another in the long line of bad big money transfers from Melbourne. He's a shit hooker.They also need good edge forwards, and Radley has regressed. They need a huge roster overhaul.

Plenty of space in the salary sombrero.

The saviour of the Wallabies has been NSW cup level since he signed that deal
-
@mariner4life Two other guys that should have been moved on a couple of years ago, Tupou and JWH have somehow managed to get 2 year extensions.
They're still living in 2019, where they had one of the best modern day halves guiding them to back to back premierships. It's gone downhill a bit since he retired, but don't seem to be doing the right things to fix it.

Tupou
lol what? in my mind he's the best winger in the comp, especially for the $400k they are paying him. Makes huge yards from the back, and plays the ball fast, both important traits in the modern NRL. Still the best aerial winger in the comp. And is solid defensively.
For comparison, we are paying Dellin $800k, twice the price. I know which i want.
JWH should be a bench impact player at best. He's good for a dumb fucking penalty every half as he tries to prove how tough he is. Not gonna work Jared, i still remember you absolutely disappearing when Ben Teo decided to take apart your pack one day, and you didn't want a fucking bar of it.
