[Noitall]

Asking for a friend, can we still win the wooden spoon?

No. Tigers

Asking for a friend, can we still win the wooden spoon?

Looks like we are safe from the spoon, uncomfortably close to 15th, 16th though.

 

[Kav1]

Agree, Question: the penalty try, isn't that 10 min in the bin for foul play by nikorima? if that was us he would've binned us, or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Either you award the penalty try or give the offender 10 minutes in the bin for a professional foul (not both)

 

[Kav1]

I agree
We were the better team
They got some lucky tries
And a tin arse drop goal from SOS

Kicking fucked us again.

i think you've got to acknowledge Ed's catch in the air to score.

 

[Ref]

Either you award the penalty try or give the offender 10 minutes in the bin for a professional foul (not both)

Correct. The only time you would do both is when the offence is a foul play such as a high shot or foot trip preventing the try.
I had one a few weeks back.
Attacker stepped inside the fullback who hung the arm out.

 

[Wrighty]

Please enough of this rubbish thinking, we are now a weak team that has got use to not winning.
Once you are in a rut, it is difficult to dig out.

I was being sarcastic. I agree with your synopsis.

I was being sarcastic with my earlier retort to @PNG Kiwi as well. Found it funny jumping onto a mathematical improbability then following it up with a question about a mathematical impossibility.

 

[Wrighty]

I want to get this off my chest. This will be a rant. Feel free not to read this.

I pay $80 a month for sky sports, roughly. That is roughly $20 per week. I only pay the money so I can get the NRL.
Why should I be paying $80 a month to watch low quality sports where I figure if I were 20 years younger could do better than the players I am watching.
When I was 16 we all used to horse around kicking conversions. I reckon right now if you gave me two weeks practice I could be a better kicker than CHT is. I also reckon if wound back the clock to me as a 40 year old just ten years ago that I could put in a better performance than what Ed Kosi turned out yesterday.
I used to be a lower grade club rugby winger and I won player of the day once for my tackling and defence. So I know how to tackle men and how to put them on the ground. I didn't used to jam in from my wing like Kosi does for fear of getting burned if I missed the tackle so why on earth does he do it. What did I know as low level club player that he doesn't know and how can it be possible with all the coaching that he gets that I know more about wing positional defence than Ed Kosi does.
And even if I am delusional that I would be better than both of them and delusional that know more than Kosi or could kick better than CHT that is WHAT I FEEL when I am watching them. And I why the hell am I paying my hard earned dollars to watch players who I think I am better than, and certainly I could find better players than if I just went and watched a High school first XV game. Becase definitely the high school first player would have made those kicks CHT missed and made those tackles Kosi missed.

WHY AM I SPENDING THE TIME AND MONEY TO WATCH RUBBISH PLAY ON MY TV?

Professional players don't make mistakes. Professional soccer players can juggle a soccer ball for twenty minutes. I am paying money to watch professional level rugby league and I am not getting that for my money.
Webster doesn't want to single out the goal kicking or Eds defence because the sport is a team sport. And we win as a team and lose as a team.
OK then let's not single individuals and lets choose to keep losing instead. That sounds like a good plan doesn't Andrew?

I am not a bandwagon fan but I watch pro sports because of the high skills the professionals have which leave me in awe.
The 2024 Warriors are not at a professional level and I they either improve soon or I am going to find a different NRL team to support instead of the Warriors like many Kiwis have chosen to do who show up at Mt Smart supporting the Dolphins or Tigers.

Ed proved its possible to catch a ball with your eyes closed. Who fucking knew aye? Hoping he proves it with a tackle next time also.

Defence and errors lost us that game, plain and simple mate. Chanel wasn't the greatest but he wasn't the reason we lost.

When I re watched it I had no ideas what was going on. But Capewell was centre, Barney might have been edge and Sifakula prop so it had the reshuffled line up effect and was perfectly attacked by Redcliffe. Effort seemed great. Execution under fatigue..........well

Bang on, makeshift positions exploited brilliantly by the fins, Capes came in too early and Barney couldn’t cover laterally and they left Sifa badly exposed and frozen in time, probly never encountered a move like that executed at nrl speed before. He'll learn though, Sifa's stint was the best part of the night for mine. Quite a classic game, proud the Wahs were part of it, good rivalry developing between the two cubs.

 

[Worried2Death]

What's the story with the punch up in the crowd? Dolphins VS Warriors fans...

Do tell, this adds to the rivalry narrative, any vids surfaced?

Everything I’ve read is warriors fan was salty because they lost. Typical

Oh right, was hoping it was a Redcliff fan making a dickhead of himself. Forget about it then.

It took 25 attempts before you realised "the" was missing from your sentence. That's more attempts than Chanel's had at goal all season. He would never make a mistake like that in his blogs.

This is worse than all of our wives talking nothing-ness during the game. This is almost evil.
