General NSW Cup 2025

[Dannevegas]

Putoko looked great on debut. Looks to have overtaken Moimoi (did anyone see how Moimoi went in Flegg? Missed that game)

If Putoko was a few inches taller he’d be a first grade prospect this year imo.

Regardless he has genuine speed and ball playing. Looked comfortable defensively

Great game by Kosi. He should get an extension for next year, I just think two years might be too much given how inconsistent he is? I don’t think he’s done enough to cement himself in our long-term plans over someone like Kali? But rather we just don’t have any good wing depth options atm

Moi-moi was pretty meh tbh, was pretty weak through contact, possibly due to his injury lay off though. I think Putoko’s jumped him for sure, and should be staying in cup ahead of Harper

this cup side at full strength is Unstoppable and probably wouldn’t come last if they were in the nrl comp.

I think he was suspended not even injured so even worse.

Agree, no point playing Harper in cup anymore, even with his top 30 contract

And yet their Fleg side destroyed ours, their C side NSW cup team pushed our minor prems favorites hard....warning Warriors first grade....massive warning....

Spot on Sup

Nah I always light the beacons on the eve of battle and take the opposition seriously.
It is not a negative thing. I believe in our team, I just believe in preparing for the worst to make sure you are not caught short.

The NRL is the competition where talking about winning before the ball is kicked off is the folly of fools.

Look at this season bro. Most unpredictable season of upsets in a while.

We are not immune to that no one is.

In my defence you will not find a post from me anywhere where i put the boot into the coach or the team, especially when we lose, I am always positive about the good that comes in losses.

So no I am not too negative about the Warriors.

This is an interesting post in light if what happened last night. So true that not a single NRL game should be assumed won before kickoff.

Had a training course today and missed seeing the games live
Came home and watched Fg then straight after nsw cup

I haven’t seen a cup game from our side for about six weeks

So yeah
Boyd / great
Kosi/ great
Putoku/ great debut and him and Kosi providing food slide defence
Hansen has improved definitely
Ale good pcm professional strong
Bunty never seen a prop take so many decoy runner runs not sure what was going on with bunt s today
Crosby/ see what you guys are talking about
Lussick / this guy keeps on giving looked sharp at hooker played a bit of lock when Going went off never drops his lip - professional
That man Geronimo provided entertainment as always

Now questions
Who was the sky commentator recognise the voice his name escapes me- Ken? Laban? Wainuiomata connection?

And a Nz ref?
Nz based?

And the score for the poster who asked was something like 32/12 to the warriors
You can always pick up the score and tesm
Lists etc just google nsw cup or nswrl.

Ten in a row
This coach take a bow

Thanks mate. Eventually came to me. Left Nz in 2007 and Dale was on then but a long time since I have heard him commentate

What was the deal with the Nz ref

Is he an NRL ref or a Nz local?

Respect the opposition but you can still be confident. What’s the worst that can happen?

What we believe won’t make any difference to the result so we can think what we like really.

Perhaps some don’t like being confident as a self defence mechanism?

Surely they get the 'Warriors Anonymous' guy in full-time to commentate these games. Way better knowledge on players I find.

Dale Husband has done his dash.
