NRL 2024

When Shaun Johnson is effective he digs into the line with his runs. When he is not he runs across field early and passes too far behind the line. We have seen more of the latter this this year. The effectiveness of Nikore’s runs in particular are reduced.

Warriors just not doing the basics well - 6th play has been rubbish.

To be fair TMM has been average as well.

Yes Cooper, we don't make errors because we don't fucking try anything. We're boring and predictable.

[mariner4life]

Also that's not obstruction because the defender actively targets the lead runner. And why do they do that? Because of all the soft obstruction calls early in the year, so defenders are actively looking to make contact with lead runners to get tries rubbed out.

SJ doing his best to prevent spoon-bowl, the only thing interesting left for Parra v Tigers

He has improved through the season and although not best halfback in comp offered more than SJ this season. Not hard though

The Warriors always kick to the air but never compete.

And they they not good in the air.

Simple one on one tackle missed.

Mathematical chance?

@booboo probably needed to win this to be mathematical

Fuck me, this is awful.

Does anyone who goes to Mt Smart know why there are empty seats in the sell outs? Is it due to corporate box reserved seats and the fans just stay in the box? Or long lines for beer?

[mariner4life]

Did these fluffybunnies meet in the car park? SJ should not play again this season. He's supposed to be in charge out there.

This was gutless and the club should be ashamed.

[booboo]

Who else thought DWZ had scored?

[mariner4life]

And you can take that curly headed useless fuck as well

[booboo]

Not even a Bonus Point

This is why I prefer rugby. For all the hype, the Warriors just don’t have systems in place to ensure they consistently perform at a high standard. Have to say the attack this year has been an issue.

[mariner4life]

How exactly is that a league v rugby argument Kevin?

@kev

I dont think the sell out crowds are all about the Warriors.

The NRL is a $700 million a year comp and every two weeks a high quality Australian NRL team comes to town.

You cant say this about Super rugby, most of the Australian rugby union teams who cross the ditch are crap.

The Wallabies and ABs are high quality. Dunno what SR is worth, but cant be much more than $100 mil.

You get what you pay for...

And I didn't even mention the real pro sports juggernaut in this part of the world - Australian football (AFL) - $1000 millon annual revenue!

[mohikamo]

Sell out crowd in Perth tonight.

Long time since the Force got anywhere near that.

Great game too!

It’s wasn’t about the sport per se, just saying that as a supporter it’s easier supporting winning teams I.e. NZ rugby teams, than supporting the Warriors. Always next year.
