Post Match Dolphins v Warriors - [Round 11, 2025]

[Wrighty]

Experience will show that teams near the top of the ladder will get more favorable decisions. That's a fact right or wrong

100% agree. I never agreed there was anti warriors ref bias. We just got shafted as we were bottom 4 for years and the refs treat bottom teams with disdain.

 

[3rdstriker]

Like I said. Just calling it how I see it. I'm not the only one that thinks our attack is lacking, despite our dominance in our forwards and nearly every other stat. And I don't dislike Metcalf, he is a good player, he's just playing the wrong position.

Really,
mate the way i see it is the potential he has look at his kicking during play, a beautifully struck 2 point field goal that narrowly misses. His Linking play is starting to come off i think he's building perfectly and if he manages to stay injury free he will get an origin call up in the near future.

It’s next year and the year after I’m getting really geed up for. Start of the dynasty…

DWZ is an OG. But our needs have evolved. And with the centres we have moving forward, we need more pace not less.

Yep he's gonna cost us and he's been exposed.

 

[Inruin]

Probably time to get the blinkers off mate. Any rhetoric that Metcalf is out of position is hard to defend. I was of the same opinion as you early in the year but he is doing everything you want from a developing half.

I can't fault him and I don't think our attack is that bad either...

He's pulling off some good individualistic plays. He is a good player. I just think he's playing the wrong position. Our attack is poor. 11 rounds in and we are still struggling to convert despite dominating through our forward pack. Read back through the GameDay threads, I'm not the lone ranger on that. I'm hoping he does develop because we have obviously backed him to be the seven. The fact we are winning is granting a fair bit of leeway from many I think.

 

[Inruin]

Dal is getting older, slower and making worse reads. At least Young can run them down on a break.

He’s be the worst winger I’d accept and you’d want Chooks coughing up big time.

Well if he is basically going to be free then yeah, maybe. DWZ puts in effort and runs hard. I haven't seen Dom do that for a long time.

I think Taine has been a bit hard done by here

But it's our best ever start to season ever!!! We are only just changing out of 3rd to 4th gear maybe.
Thing is we haven't clicked yet and we are winning hold your patience i reckon, I never thought it would work as he was a natural 6 but you can see that he is evolving into that great 7.
The Aussies are drooling over him already albeit a bit early for that but they see his potential too.

Erin Clark captain next week. That is all.

 

[Ref]

Defensively we are epic.
Webby knows this and that he needs to work on our attack.
I see TT and TMM in the frame.

 

[Garry Saloon]

Our forward pack and for the most part our defense were top shelf. Our attack is poo. Luckily the Dolphins were poor and the Ref forgot half the rules. Looks like we will have no Barney and no Fish next week. The million dollar man will really have to show he is worth it and not just rely on Woman's Day puff pieces.

No Barney?

Epic apart from that one edge eh

They're not in the frame mate

 

[kurgal]

We're FOUR solid points ahead of the Melbourne Storm on the ladder ... effin incredible!!

For now.

But even if they win we are still ahead of them, which is STILL 'effin incredible!'

 

[Garry Saloon]

I tell ya, the fix is in.... It's our year to make the 8 and they gonna make sure of it. NRL want to keep the foot on the throat of Union over here.

Lol. The conspiracies....

 

[Canadian_Warriors_Fan]

No Barney?

Origin mate

 

[KPWarrior]

Is Luke the million dollar man?

 

[WHB]

Is Capewell the best center in the NRL?

Has to be???
Shut down the best center tonight and even covered his wingman who was left in no man's land when the ball went past.

 

[kos]

Defence defence defence
Won us the game
Capewell and Pompey did a fantastic job on Herbie etc.
I couldnt believe Capewell shutting Herbie down
I had expected Herbie to burn Capewell
Well done Kurt.
Efficient tidy competent debut by TSS
Well done

 

[Rick O’Shay]

Capewah and Pomps to share MOM, both were enormous in D plus Capes got the pie.
