Post Match 2023 Warriors vs Knights - Week 2 Finals (Post Match)

[Inruin]

Anyone else still up on their third replay of the game? No, just me , ok

Good work. Surprised you are at your third viewing already. Thought you would have Rocco Berry scoring his try on a repeat loop

Pains me to say this, but I'm gonna agree with @Bruce - that mexican wave bullshit can fuck riiiiiiiiiight off. Especially when you've got dickwads in the rows above you throw their 3/4 full cans of Lion Red in the air when it comes around. Nothing like being belted in the back of the head by one and having it absolutely soak your $20 kebab.

Shout out to all the East Stand bay 42 folk who turned out and gave them more of an earful than poor old Adam Gee was getting.

If he wasn't he is now. Both Doggie and Dragons fans want their clubs to buy out Webby's contract and coach their teams.

Too bad, so sad..as my kids would say

Kid played well. Ali to replace him next year though still

Haha it’s cool to hear that there are others like me.

My wife came into the room and said “Didn’t the Warriors already win? Are you watching a replay!!!”

Just admit you are watching it 3x for the glory of Berrysiah’s miracle try

Nice to rack up a score - 40 points in a finals game is pretty impressive

 

[Classicrockdave]

Nice to see the crowd really getting behind the team. They are starting to resemble British league fans with chanting and singing.

Are we worried about Marata getting possibly charged for his high tackle. Didn’t look great on second viewing even if Marzew got back on his feet straight away. I just know the judiciary will try and fuck us before the Brisbane game especially with Maratas record. He could easily cop a one game suspension, possibly 3 with loading.

Nope. Not breaking the habit of a lifetime. I might watch bits of a replay if it's on when I flick the On button on the remote, but I've never actively sat down and rewatched a full game.

Watching EPL. Picked 1/1 so far.

Bet there's a lot of Aussie league pundits lying in bed shaking their heads: "I was so sure we were descended from the Nostradamus line...."

I'm going to spend a lot of time - probably too much time, it might get unhealthy - googling "2023 NRL predictions preseason", and giggling over the next week.

Of course, everyone's going to back the Broncos next weekend. Nothing surer.

 

[Hardyman's Yugo]

What an absolutely fantastic performance that was. Everybody did their job but it was a masterclass from Johnson. Trying to remember if he was ever caught in possession

Yeah i was worried he was going to be sent for excessive force!

Great win and now thinking towards the Broncos.

I think Walker said in the aftermatch that they were blown away by the Panthers when they couldn’t get their share of possession and how the game felt completely different against the Knights when we did.

I’m a bit worried the Broncos play at real speed like the Panthers and we will struggle to stick with them at the start. It seems whoever starts slowest, has the first error and penalty against them suffers against the top teams and gets blown away, like was done to us last week and we did to the Knights today.

It’s crucial (winning and losing of the game) that we start switched on for the first 20 minutes next week as it sets up the win for our team. And we have to play perfect to take the ref out in those first 20 minutes as well!

 

[pleatedpantspete]

as a former mt smart regular, the problem with the mexican wave is you risk drawing attention to the box of cody's you've smuggled in and are hiding under the seat

 

[BangBro's (still banging)]

I can't wait to watch the replay of this every night this week!

The way Shaun gives the team confidence is somthing else, This is far from over!

Have been reading the Knights forum and they were dismayed at the space he was given.

Evidently that's what we gave Reynolds in Napier. Hopefully we have learned

 

[Canonball]

I think we made only two genuine errors - when sj of all people fumbled a trap from a ponga grubber was the first - i forget what the other one was ... of course the stats will say differently but that was the overwhelming impression - we played pretty pretty good
