Gameday NZ Warriors v Cronulla Sharks - [Round 5, 2026]

[Leon Black]

CNK has to go — looks miles off it while Ali’s tearing NSW Cup to pieces. Defence is an absolute joke. No grit, no pride, just folding the moment there’s pressure.

Ford’s cooked, needs a spell, Tanah’s gone from promising to passenger in two weeks flat. Webby and the whole squad should be embarrassed — that’s not a contender, that’s a team kidding itself.

Storm will flog us next week!

Sharkies running a clinic today, imagine next week with the Storm? 70-10 part 2

 

[Sir Arrow]

cohesion gets harder when you change your line up

 

[JaggedJ]

Even in the first 3 rounds it was clear our backs were a glaring weakness. Nothing changed from last year in that regard.

Team's just have enough tape to exploit it more accurately now.

 

[sup42]

Egans Cooked.

Every season we lose all our top Aussie forwards, Capewell, Egan, Barnett.

 

[El Chuckie]

Warriors in a Boyd special - 40-14

Still looking possible, just not the way you meant.

 

[Leon Black]

Adam Pompey is an okay centre, but he's never going to be top 12. Ali Leiataua hasn't kicked on as hoped and Rocco is semi-permanently injured, it seems. Time to move a couple of those guys on.

CNK send him with RTS

2 big losses coming right up

 

[tajhay]

please score now before HT

 

[MrFrankWhite]

Why do I always want to smash Nico Hyne's face in.

Gypsy curse

 

[The Warrior Waka]

Omg Metcalf

 

[Jaffa J]

Metcalf is cooked

 

[WAH MAN]

we have just deviated from our controlled play and seems that the early wins this year has artificially inflated our confidence that those plays will work out well each week.

I think we also need to rotate more guys in and out. I'm not sure we have recovered enough. Just a theory.

 

[tajhay]

lets not try that set play again...

 

[FormerlyJamesW]

Please take Metcalf off.

 

[KPWarrior]

Bring back CHT!

 

[kurgal]

we're so far from having the consistency of the Panthers, just a different league altogether

 

[tajhay]

this has been really really horrible

 

[The Warrior Waka]

Fuck Metcalf is terrible

 

[Warriors4lyfe]

How goods Metcalf
