Post Match NZ Warriors v Parramatta Eels - [Round 9, 2026]

[FormerlyJamesW]

It’s interesting our plan was to grind them down so it actually makes sense to take the points early in the half to create scoreboard pressure before breaking them down in the last quarter

Definitely shows the confidence that the players have in their own abilities.

You wouldn't take it if you didnt think you could cross the line in the next sets.

Watched the highlights

Khan was full steam and nobody in front

Someone was celebrating on the left

Yeah I don't know why he didn't back himself. Surely unless it's the Fox you just keep running.

 

[WAH MAN]

Might not have had the energy in the moment to go the length

 

[WAH MAN]

Perils of our wingers scoring the majority of our tries unfortunately.

To reward goal kicks from out wide I suggest that goal kicks from out wide of a certain mark score three points.

Not seriously but just a random thought

One thing that really annoyed me last night being at the game was seeing Moses look to the sideline when they made a mistake and throw his arms up because he want getting information back on whether to challenge or not. It’s supposed to be an on field decision and I was surprised to see them being so blatant about waiting for replays

 

[Wrighty]

Something needs to be done about the fake Parra crowd chanting noise. I am close to making a complaint myself but have no proof it is fake

The commentators have made a lot of comments/shown clips the last year of Moses getting frustrated with his team mates.

I get being experienced or being the star of the team you can get frustrated if the ball goes the other way etc. There are times it has looked like he has taken things too far. They don't have the experienced side they had a few years ago under Arthur.

The commentators push that he is trying to lift their standards. But, he won't be right all of the time. There would be times the dummy half can't get him the ball, can't hear him etc.

The challenges I find frustrating as a lot of teams debate, wait, debate with the ref. Then call for it to be looked at. The referees should call 10 seconds up more often. The commentators queried how long our challenge too. One of the few times I've heard that and it didn't seem that long.

 

[Wrighty]

It was fake lol

I have complained but they will think I am nutter and imagining it.

 

[Ever Hopeful]

Glen Fish I reckon

Man, does he even count? We seemed to wait games and games for him to get into clear space and apart from the Elliott "posts, posts" break it didn't happen.

Plenty of highlights at reserve grade though including the try celebration lowlight.

I do love seeing all the comments from opposition fans (and coaches I guess!) moaning about us getting helped by the refs, this is truly what backing a winning team feels like

 

[Wrighty]

Is anyone else, any long suffering Warriors tragics starting to wonder "Is it the Warriors year?" If we can beat Paramatta comfortably like that away from home, on the road, in an oddly refereed match that disrupted both team's rhythms, AND we are yet to integrate Barnett at full cylinders into our side - then how far can we go?

Don’t say it Wrighty

I honestly think we’re entering our premiership window.

Don't get me wrong, I think it’s feckin great that we’re doing so well. But I’m gonna wait til we’ve beaten the Broncs a fortnight from now before agreeing with you.

Great to hear AW using the #ruthless call in the press conference after the game
