Post Match Rabbitohs vs Warriors - [Round 13, 2025]

[Po11um]

I'd still rather Blocker than Greg Alexander.

I mute the commentary

It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile, winning is winning.

It does matter.

Did none of you fullas watch the first Fast and Furious movie?

You can watch it again if we don't make it to week 2 of finals because of points difference

 

[Makasene]

Incorrect bruv
Points differential at business end is soooo important
Good win
But stop allowing these teams to com back in 2nd half

I disagree.

PD is irrelevant if you keep winning.

PD is a tie breaker. Tie breakers don't matter if you finish top 4.

Nothing other than winning matters. How you win is irrelevant. Just win.

 

[3rdstriker]

I think tonight's win was huge moving forward great to see us bounce back, winning is becoming something we're becoming accustomed to.

Bit scrappy with dropped balls interceptions and Dwz was caught out in no man's land again, i do think Tuaupiki deserves his spot out there. But we did score well tonight and came away with the 2 points.
A Huge game for CNK tonight linking well again too,
Vaimauga haleasina Egan Clark Rts all had great games i thought.

What a unit.
Let's get rid of him.

One of CNK best games ever, IMHO

Broooo

Correct

Generally 75% is the accepted level to be considered a 'good' goal kicker.

Elite is approx 80%

El Masri: 81.97%
Thurston: 79.50%
Halligan: 79.31%%


Metcalf is a poor goal kicker, no two ways about it. It's not hurting us quite yet but it will kill us in the finals

also pulled some stats for noted goalkickers but also a couple of second choice / backups for reference, in order high to low:

nathan cleary 672/797 for 84.32%

We are only just starting to score more 2nd half points and click, we are top 2, No doubt 3rd after the Raiders win tonight.
I agree Let's just enjoy it with our next man up mentality.

 

[FormerlyJamesW]

No doubt 3rd after the Raiders win tonight.

I wouldn't write the Chooks off.

We're half way through the season with a positive PD. It's madness the focus on it.

Raiders finished 9th last year because their PD was -147 compared to Newcastles -40.

Take a look at 2023. Teams 7 and 8 qualified with a negative PD. Teams 9, 10, 11 & 12 all in the positive.

Nothing else matters other than the win column.

 

[3rdstriker]

I wouldn't write the Chooks off.

Hopefully they're more fatigued than us then

 

[Tookey 2.0]

It does matter.

Haha we've made the 8 how many times in the last 10 years?

I'm gunna enjoy our wins despite us our poor pd.

You do you boo!

 

[Wah's Up]

Webby summed it up pretty much in the post match. The team has the next man up approach and don't sulk if they are not picked.
Best coach ever and the team are responding to his simple approach. Unfortunately the Ref and Skunker can turn games very quickly but now our team does not drop their lip and continues to win whether we get wrong decisions or not.
Up the Wahs

 

[Noitall]

I wouldn't write the Chooks off.

Fogarty out for raiders

 

[Makasene]

It does matter.

this doesn't make any sense.

You would only miss week 2 of the finals as a week one loser in the bottom of the 8.

PD is not going to be the difference between 4th & 5th.

I suspect people are confusing their own arguments about our leaking points and not putting teams away which is fair. PD is a total red herring in this argument.

 

[Noitall]

Rewound and watched us sing team song about 10 times. This team is tight

 

[FormerlyJamesW]

Fogarty out for raiders

Starling too?

 

[Wah's Up]

Must add, that all the tackles that Luke and CHT made will definitely hamper their attack as the energy to defend takes a lot out of the tank but to their credit (especially Luke) they still stepped up on attack.

 

[Shogun]

Score should'a been 42-0
