Post Match Warriors v Sharks - [Round 1, 2024]

[MurrayTD]

Deeply disappointing result...Sharks definitely wanted the win more though.

As a spectacle they need to deal with players constantly being in the referees ear over every call, it is an ugly look.

 

[itsouryearwhenever]

Even with the calls the Sharks were getting you just can’t toss the footy around expecting someone to do something. Those last tackle options were also abysmal.

 

[Lord Gnome of Waiheke]

no penetration no ideas

What are you, my wife?

 

[1995warriorsfan]

They need to remember penalties are worth 2 points . They got too cockey

 

[defensivebomb]

Does anyone else get the shits when ford gets passed the ball?

 

[Cces]

Tohu, AFB & Barnett created the platform to win that twice over! 70th minute midfield scrum & the decision is just to pass it out to RTS to see what he can do. That play summed up our lack of imagination with the pill

 

[sup42]

Buulshit.

Why? Are you one of those Grenhorns who expect it on a plate despite the NRL being the hardest most unpredictable comp in the world?

Did you think we would win on paper?

Newsflash the Sharks are a tough tradesman side.

 

[tajhay]

How good was ale off the bench though!

 

[afakasi247]

From watching live at the stadium, fucking dissapointed. 70% possession in the first 20mins and only 12 pts to show - I had that sinking feeling the final result was going to happen.

Only game 1 I suppose.

 

[demco]

feel sorry for the big crowd. having to pay to watch that 2nd half crap

 

[Warriorshopeful]

Sharks deserve that...12 nil down away and held it.....Under big pressure...Wahs check yourself for next week

They were helped to hold it by 5 penalties in a row... completely turned the momentum of the game.

 

[Dlenai]

My first question to Webster, Ale was unused and Bunty only 15 minutes, was this due to Lussicks interchange to Egan off?

 

[Bluecat]

CNK was missed tonight. Tuapiki is talented but he doesn't create the opportunities that Charnze can looping around the right hand side.
Shame for the forwards that the inside backs were unable to capitalise on their efforts. Forcing goal line drop out after goal line drop out is pointless if you have no idea how to score when you get the ball back.
I felt that when we were unable to score when we were all over them 20 minutes in that we were going to struggle.
Plenty for Webby to work on this week. We will get better but a shame that we missed one that we could have won

 

[snake77]

A tough one seeing as how well we started.

It is a bit of a missed opportunity with a home game round 1. It's going to be tougher next week. Mind you the conditions in Melbourne might hope with our ball movement. Also a loss will mean the coach will be on to them to improve. So hopefully a better all-round effort next week.

We have an experienced squad so they will like fix up a lot of the issues.

 

[wizard of Tauranga]

Ale had a blinder!

 

[Mr Drag]

I'm sorry for picking the Warriors! The Jinx is real! Panthers got no chance with my jinx!

 

[Lord Gnome of Waiheke]

Hey RTS, this is league not union - sharpen up!

 

[The Shah of Iran]

We

Taine is a good player but unsuited to this team

We don't need his spark, we need CNK strong direct runs.

He still looks uncomfortable with ball playing, unfortunately. Timing and position seem to be off still

 

[Horriors2013]

I'm in shock really. Expected a lot more. Everything in our favour this year. Big crowd, loads of hype. RTS. Capewah. All an illusion?

 

[demco]

look at the table get used 2 it.
