Post Match Raiders v Warriors - [Round 1, 2025]

[FormerlyJamesW]

This team is rudderless. They have NO idea what they're doing on attack.

 

[Uster101]

We were definitely missing Morgan Harper

 

[Beastmode]

Webby must be starting to feel the pressure. This team is his team now.

Bro it’s only rd 1

 

[tajhay]

Capewell with 8 missed tackles. Besides Leka and Demitric with their limited game time, Barnett was the only player without a missed tackled.

Granted its going to take some time for the team to gel, but what i saw is very uninspiring. There is no enterprising play and not sure how they plan on scoring points. The one out running with lack of offload and support play is very depressing.

 

[MrFrankWhite]

Does anyone have any theories on what the hell happened to Niukore?

Seriously - bloke is massive, but can't put on a hit and struggles to get any post contact metres. Deadset softie.

Playing for a soft nuts coach that lets him get away with it.

 

[MrFrankWhite]

So bad……..

It’s going to be a looooong season

Fix the halves and we fix many of our problems

I disagree. Different halves as last year, same problem.

 

[BangBro's (still banging)]

One major positive, I saved 30k on a trip to Vegas!

Doesn’t look interested, has that kinda lazy posture about him and yeah….

 

[Roadrunner]

Out thought,outmatched,outhyped and outgunned gutless display

 

[juju]

Jackson Ford jogging on a kick return really summed that game up for me

 

[mrblonde]

Not particularly impressive from us, but the Raiders looked better than I expected they would.
The connection between 1st Round Wins and GFs is probably very shaky, so I'm not going to make any observations there.
I'd like to think the Twenny I placed before the game on the Wahs to win The Whole Shebang hasn't cursed the season already. If so... I Sos. My Bad. I Di'n't Eat Mah Meat, The Wahs Can't Have Any Puddin'.

 

[Uster101]

I wonder what Cliff Beverley is doing these days?

 

[1995warriorsfan]

Embrassing for our fans over there.

I could say more, but I just need to calm down.

 

[Dannevegas]

A few points here.

•I know its round 1 but this line up needs massive changes, no point changing it 8 rounds in.
• Erin Clark’s better than Fish, Fish is a cat who runs routes to the little number 9, never runs it hard to a middle forward.
•2 of Leka, Laban and Demetric need to be starting on the edges.
• Pompey, CNK, Capewell, Niukore need to go
•there back up winger on debut was better than our whole backline, and we’re over here resigning Pompey and signing Harper and most of you are happy with that?
• webby needs to stop being so fkn stubborn, what is our new game plan? attack left instead of right? Amazing. How about we threat both sides,is that hard.
• were too conservative in every way

 

[Mr Drag]

That performance was disgraceful. We looked gassed after 10 minutes, our attack, our defence is worse than last year.

Metcalf isn't a 7.
CNK should be out.
CHT disappeared.

TMM at 7,
Metcalf at 6.
RTS at full back.

Webby must be starting to feel the pressure. This team is his team now.

You got that right about Webby and I'm not taking any responsibility for that performance!

 

[snake77]

Well done to Canberra. They played well.

Even when the offloads weren't coming off they still chanced their arm and played football.

 

[Po11um]

It's going to be a long plane trip home . Disappointing for fans who paid big $$ to go over to watch.

 

[Dannevegas]

Maybe we would’ve done better in rotovegas lol. Don’t know why the NRL took us there tbh, embarrassing

 

[Barzak]

After one game I can pick out 3 things that need to happen immediately for the sake of the club.

Adam Pompey should not see first grade again.

He offers nothing in any area.

For years our edge has suffered from poor defence, I’ve seen different edge forwards and wingers take the blame. The reason that edge has been poor is Pompey.

I’d be happy to explain further for those who want it.

His attack is shocking, he’s slow, has poor decision making on both sides of the ball.

I could keep going but I won’t.

Niukore needs to go, or a heavily reduced role. Slow, bad reads and no impact from his runs.

And finally, we need to realise we have 4 players on our bench.

There’s other things obviously but those 3 are glaring.

 

[Uster101]

Every other side in the Comp seem to have speed. Why don't we?
