Post Match Sydney City Roosters v NZ Warriors - [Round 1, 2026]

[Barzak]

Starting to wonder how Capewell keeps doing what he does.

 

[snake77]

The first half with the call when Nawaqanitawase pushed RTS's arm down. I think they called taking out Pompey.

The video ref mentioned not having two arms attempting to take the ball.

I did hear some discussion about a rule change or an interpretation about disruptors using one arm. When I first heard it I thought it could be frustrating as teams jump to bat it back to team mates.

He did pull his arm down. But the ruling or wording is something that could cause frustration later in the season.

 

[Gods_17]

Fuck me I’ve had one too many and plan to have one too plenty more…. Seriously who saw that scoreline coming for us?

How much a calming influence are JFH & CHT

JFH "There's a New Breed Rising."

CHT "I feel Good... I Got This!"

 

[sup42]

Might go have a wank and calm down before I try and engage critical thought.

Maybe calm down first before attacking Palmela Handerson, so you don't use the death grip.

Sorry poll now up. I got a bit carried away with the win.

I think the ruling was he jumped early and then stopped competing for the ball and interfered with Pompey being able to make a play at the ball.

As long as they are consistent with their rulings.

I get that. There was some wording on one of the kicks that reminded me of the interpretation discussion about having two hands.

Think there is going to be some frustration at some point. As players do bat it back well one handed. Can see some inconsistency frustrating one set of fans at some point during the season.

 

[jonesy101]

Absolutely stoked with our ability to put on so many points tonight which was a bit of a concern towards the back end of last season.

 

[Wellington Warrior]

Great to put up a dominant score in round 1. Would have been even better if Ali wasn’t such a turnstile in defence!!

As for Tedesco and Walker constantly whinging to the ref… suck it!

 

[Rick O’Shay]

Ups to Boydie who was on a hiding to nothing.

Took the ball to the line and did what halfbacks are supposed to do.

I'm very interested to see how he progresses before Metz gets back

I felt the Bunker was On Song tonight. Nackerstaawasee is Nil, he's off to rugby. Soooo as good as he is, he's off to rugby

I GOT A 5 FINGER DISCOUNT ON THIS GAME.
I HAVE A DATE WITH MRS PALMER AND HER 5 DAUGHTERS.
I NEED TO GO HOME AND BEAT SOMETHING LIKE IT OWES ME MONEY.
IM OFF TO WATCH CAPEWELLS VIDEO

 

[ShaunJohnson7]

Wonderful win, so stoked, enjoyed that game so much.

Two guys about to turn 33 in Capewell and RTS just fantastic and you need to ask the question if we give them another year....they are proven champions.

Looking forward to the rest of season.

 

[JustLikeStartingOver]

Tanwah and CHT gave old long neck and walker a bath.

Actually think some of the roosters, looked a bit old and slow for the constant effort and energy game the warriors, panthers etc play.

Good to see the fans rewarded, they turned in some stinkers at home last year

Keep giving us the young refs they haven’t learnt how to fix the games yet

I’m sending a shout-out to Foxtel — especially Anasta (most overrated player of all time) and Kevin Walters (most unimportant Walters of all time).

At halftime of the Roosters–Warriors game you ran a segment on the Roosters’ loss… featuring an interview with DCE. Not a single plaudit for the team that put 40 on them. Plenty of Kiwis live in Australia, by the way.

Sort your shit out or lose more subscribers, you biased muppets. At least Dan Ginnane shows some respect. The rest of you can go and get fucked.

Have a feeling the press will blame the bunker for the loss on Monday.

How NSWRL rocks

 

[BlackToko88]

How good watching a home game sober(ish)!

I had doubts heading into this game, but boy we had a solid game. Dont think ive seen a more convincing win since (2018?)

Fish had his best game, Boyd played really good (albeit a few missed kicks). CHT showed why webby backed him.

Rog and capewell player like a bunch of guys in their 20s

Backing Ali for a strong game next week.

Heaps to like, heaps to work on. Highlight was watching teddy n co bitch and moan all game

 

[unclesteve]

Fantastic game.
I liked how at a 12 pt gap we didnt try and close up shop. I feel that some lessons have been learnt.

Too many games in recent history have ended up close when we have been ahead by a margin.

Have been one of TB knockers, but he played really well and I hope it continues. Thought CHT and Ford were excellent and the young lads looked confident and seasoned.

Long season, but what a fucken great way to kick it off!

 

[WAH MAN]

Yeah I speculated that both Tanah and Ali would be awesome and only got one right. Cambra next week.
