Post Match Knights v Warriors - [Round 20, 2025]

[Popdukes]

Watching the reply of Lekas try, his balance, foot work and speed is remarkable for back rower, gotta figure out how to use him a little more

 

[Dannevegas]

Do we need to start looking at Martin in the halves

I didn't mind us stealing the win at Campbelltown. Wests fan are very annoying. But I have a soft spot for the Knights. They've had a shit year and their fans are very lovely people. The people who run this podcast also love the wahs too and give us love every chance they get. So I had no joy watching them feel this pain. We have been here so many times before as well in the past

Poor bastard, thought he was home 3 times

All of the top 4 teams had a bit of a scare.

The Raiders survived it the best and the worrying part for them was mainly restricted to the first half.

The Storm lost.

Like us the Bulldogs had to do it late.

I know there was a lot of dicussion before the game about their situation. Putting a score on would have been great. But like a lot of people said there are no easy/given games in this competition.

As much as Boyd's goal kicking was less than ideal, what about the Knights? 0/3. This is the second time we've been saved by shit goal kicking after the great escape in Wollongong.

 

[Horriors2013]

Still waiting for CHT to step up ! Shouldn’t be up to Boyd to take all the pressure !

I think if he passed to RTS we were a chance to score, or at least stay in play. He's enthusiastic and gets around. I just don't see him consistently doing 5/8th 'things'.

[Tookey 2.0]

I think that game really highlights the level of competition the NRL is. You can be 20% shitter than you usually are (like we were) and if the other team is 20% better than they usually are (like they were) you can get your pants pulled down.

I thought we had a few really harsh calls against us, particularly the 1st half but we also had enough out there to win, but we just couldn't finish off our opportunities. A few more penalties and errors in there that we usually give away, which compounds the problem.

I thought Tannah was largely very good apart from struggling to ice the game at the end. 2 forced drop outs, a try assist and 4 goals, I thought he directed us well. The problem is, we need others to step up and help and make the play. Thought Chanel had his worst game of the year, and Egan was pretty quiet besides his try/no try.

These kinda games happen. Flush it and move on.

 

[sydneywarrior92]

Leka's winning try was boss. But what about Demi? This is the second time that he's had a ridiculous hit up to start the second half. Felt we really build on that, dominating the field position to start that second half. Not to mention that try to bring us back into it.

 

[Ever Hopeful]

As expected ,Webby not impressed with the Egan/Marzhew decisions.

I'm still baffled that the bunker has more terrible decisions than refs who are doing things at full pelt. I actually think on-field refs are pretty good (aside from the game managing stuff, which surely comes from the NRL)

 

[Tragic]

Boyds long kicking game was pretty good, I reckon he will get us some 40:20s before the year is done.
I would pair him with TMM, we need some creativity out there.

 

[sydneywarrior92]

Hating that shhhhh celebration

why? Love that arrogance. It's what made Penrith cubs from 6 years ago turn into the legends they are today.

 

[John Nick]

Leka is the clutch king. How lucky are we to have a player of that calibre? Absolutely beast.

Even at this early stage of his career he could go down in history as a Warriors great

 

[kurgal]

Holy Shit Leka!!!!!!!!!!

We did not deserve that, feel for the Knights.

I think we did deserve that, given the two disallowed tries we had on marginal grounds.

 

[RobRoyMcCoy]

Leka. X Factor like no other player I can think of.

Egan's try was try.

Our faith in youth is paying off.

I agree, Boyd, will realise from this game that he doesn't need to win it for us every game with his kicking.

Two point, two wins in a row and Charnze back next week. Not many games to go. Looking good.

 

[Sir Arrow]

Hating that shhhhh celebration

 

[Ref]

OMG I can’t believe there is negativity.
We just won against a team on paper our equal in the most incredible way…

 

[snake77]

Clark again was great through the middle.

Pompey isn't a lot of peoples favourite. I like him as he's reliable. He doesn't make any unforced errors. He typically keeps his opposite queit. We have been chopping and changing the right centre all year and he's been a constant out on the left.

Vaimauga has been good off the bench. When we are just grinding through sets and not looking dangerous his offloads help give us something to play off. A good try today.

Stowers-Smith it was good to see him used early instead of being held back until late in the game. Good to see another player getting more experience.

 

[CWC]

That was our Xavier Coates moment,

Individual try of the year, he’s won the rookie of year

I was so confused and OMG That was Final Destination domino

Cape went off with sore knee, Pompey to the right and Leka ended up on the right for Marata instead of playing 80 on the left? And Hastings charged down Boyd again after missing 3 already

Seen too many players miss like this and went on to be clutch after, and vise versa, we will know which one Boyd is later. I don’t blame CHT for not taking any shot, we all know what happens when he takes shots

 

[Wahs_Ultras]

Overall, I thought Tanah played well despite a couple of shockers in the kicking department at the end there. Only his 2nd game in first grade this season, and he’s obviously still building his confidence back after being dumped by the Tits. Should be easy for him to put what happened behind him as we won.

 

[Sir Arrow]

Yeah not a fan giving the crowd the sshhhhhhh gesture and also the sleep one. They were all doing it which wasn’t a great look when they were reviewing the try on the Mattt Johns show. Celebrate with joy but no need to provoke the crowd. Basic sportsmanship which is lacking in many sports these days
