Like the captain said (great speech) - they're still learning to be league players. This season has been a pleasant surprise. I'm definitely excited for the future of the NRLW team.

Hetic game, was hoping they would pull that one off. Red cards were soft! Hope the club queries them.

2 players sent off as well. Factor that in

Fitness is high for part timers and noobs with eleven.
Buttler was player of the match imo, her and Albert Jones have to be the best on the night.
That forward pack we have is special, this team with some player returns could do anything.

Still can’t believe the girls outscored a full side with 13 on the park. Four tries each, but we trailed 16-0 with 11 and then won 16-4 with 11. Enormous spirit from the Wahine

100% - went down from Auckland for it and was glad I did, result aside.
Awesome to see a good crowd there for the women, they deserved it and felt unlike the men they harnessed it.
Crazy game - The Girls tried so hard after those 2 bad Red Card calls by the useless Officials. Laben got his leg broken in a similar tackle and nothing was done to the Offending player during the game, Yet our girl was sent off. I am sure if the offences were done by the Raiders players then it would never have been red cards. Good learnings for the Warriors girls to start learning how officials treat Warriors players. The men have been treated this way for 30 years! They were not red card offences at all - Yellow Card at the worst. The second red card should have just been a put on report as there really was nothing in it. Makes you wonder what is going through the rule makers at the NRL head office, when it become a red card for making a tackle. I always thought tackling was part of the game. The way the game is going, it will become soft. Some kid at rugby school picked up the soccer ball and rugby was created because he thought soccer was crap (as it is). Please don't make Rugby league turn back into soccer !
I disagree. Broncos woman did a very similar tackle to Matakino earlier in the season and was also sent off.
The hip drop, 50/50 sinbin vs send off, but it was a textbook hip drop with zero mitigation.

Congratulations are in order.
Happy news for a Warrior.
Ï guess Michaela becomes an invaluable off field resource for our young team now if that is the plan.
If I were a young player with her in my orbit I would seek her out for sprint training coaching.

Shakira Baker in the centre's could cause some havoc.
We need to draft in a kicking half.
Otherwise I am really looking forward to all the games, love this team.

Ikenasio banned for 3 matches, Gray for 2 matches
That hip drop seems insane. An early red card and 3 matches for that is brutal, especially when you account for the shorter NRLW season. 1st offence too. **though I do see she ended the season of the Raider's player.
It is annihilate the Warriors at the judiciary week
I see Mya Hill-Moana is out for personal reasons too. It could mean anything, but it always going to make people guess in the women's game.
