This game day thread discusses the Warriors' disappointing NRL season opener against the Raiders in Las Vegas, marked by defensive lapses and ineffective attack from the outset. Fans express frustration over questionable team selections, particularly the underwhelming performance of halves CHT and Metcalf #167#308, while critiquing Andrew Webster's bench management as impactful players like Leka and Demetric receive minimal minutes despite the team's struggles #335#487. Critical posts highlight key failures: CNK's costly errors at fullback #355, porous defense allowing frequent offloads and line breaks #133#396, and stagnant one-out attacking structures that squander opportunities #329#333. Optimistic users #29 predicting impact players like JFH see their hopes fade amid the collapse, with late tries from Pompey #283 and Tuaupiki #406 offering little consolation in the heavy defeat. Coaching decisions draw ire post-match, especially persisting with underperforming veterans like Niukore over energetic rookies showing promise in limited time #525#527.

Quietly confident about this one. The boys seem to be in a good head space and have had a positive build up. Very possible we'll be sitting on 6 points and top spot when we face the Tigers away??? OK, OK settle back down and concentrate on 2 points today. One game at a time please!
When is too early to crack open a beer? Anyone else feeling conscious about what the household will say if you crack one while it is officially morning?
According to Google drinking in the morning is not good.
And when do you have a feed? eating is cheating? Breakfast or no breakfast, I know for sure some highly superstitious Warriors fans will be out of sorts with their game day routines being thrown so far out of Whack
Picking the boys to be well up for this, and the nrl to let a bit more go wanting to show a great spectacle to the yanks. Young boys will be awed and hopefully can keep composure. Hopefully Ricky Stuart has created a bit more venom with his spray of old boy Adam Blair publicly. Fletcher and Hindmarsh show was a hard case with TMM stitching CNK up saying he said he didn’t like Stuart. CNK said na I never said that

League is back. I'm ready to rip in for a cracking 6 months of bagging out Kosi, big upping any youngsters who show any potential, and letting out endless chea hoos.
