Post Match Tigers v Warriors - [Round 4, 2025]

[snake77]

Real shame Pompeys greatest individual play was lost largely by virtue of fans tending to dismiss the try because the opposition was the Tigers who in plain dumb Warrior fan speak are a team we should thrash.

You have to laugh, if Ali had of scored that Try the whole NRL would have blown its load.

That was Kevin Iro level Centers play, it was Blackmore McKraken level of beastmode scoring.

Best Warriors Center play in years and years and years. True story that was a beautiful run any NRL player would be proud of.

Imagine if Adam Pompey is a late bloomer and that Try is the moment that unlocks his attacking game....that would be the best sports story ever...lets not forget the only reason Adam Pompey has a contract is that he keeps winning hardest preseason trainer at the Warriors....he is one limited talent all effort anomaly we rarely see...if he were a white boy from Nelson he would have Simon Mannering cult support.

Pisses me off he gets shit around here coz he is the antithesis of the lazy Warrior.

Weren't you his main detractor during the off season. Telling people he shouldn't be in anyone's teams as he is isn't a centre and he's too slow?

I've often said my impression on him changed from 2020. I'm pretty sure he has done other impressive plays to score. All be it closer to the try line.

What does Simon Mannering's skin colour have to do with anything?
Yes he worked hard but the main outlier with him was where he came from as we didn't typically recruit from the South Island. Any praise he got was deserved on merit.

Trying to insinuate Warriors fans will support a particular player and pump up their work effort because of the colour of their skin is pretty insulting.
