Erin Clark is a fricken stud, man.

Attack looked better and continues to improve week on week.

Happy for the double for the falcon.

Taine should be kicking anything that’s not directly in front.

So, this is what winning on ANZAC Day feels like.

Been too long.

 

[Bluecat]

Well done. We were favourites to win and we won well.
So.much to celebrate.
WE ARE THE WARRIORS!!!

 

[Makasene]

Simple, direct game plan that continues to be executed well.

Expansion of attack in the red zone, targeting all channels both sides of the field.

Winning with key players out.

Top 4 should be the goal now

Good seeing Ford get over for 2 in his 50th for the club.

Clark dude is a terror in the middle.

Glad to see Leban getting some minutes. Adding more competition to our squad. He's looking in good shape.

 

[KPWarrior]

Job done!

 

[Inruin]

Ugly game to watch but did what we needed to for the 2 points. Egan MOM for me and Clark not far behind. We will need to improve again for the Cowboys in magic round.

[Po11um]

Good win
Onwards & upwards
Bring on the Cowboys

 

[Wah u talkin about Wallis]

Thank God we don't have to play the Storm on Anzac any more. Crap weather, long built up then destroyed in game

 

[Gummy bear]

good D , mediocre A.
oh well we will take the W

 

[sydneywarrior92]

Yay we get to be 2nd for 1 game. Back to 3rd once Melbourne belt Souths just now.

 

[FormerlyJamesW]

Ugly game to watch

Seems to be the way we do things this year…

 

[snake77]

Glad it was only 12 conceded and not the usual Warriors high scoring from both sides.

Important for our defence. Improve our for and against.

The Knights attack is pretty much move the ball to the side. Very little change of direction. Or out the back to Ponga.

 

[Defence]

Score line probably flattered Newcastle- bit strange we were so dominant through the middle yet they had quicker play the balls and more penalties and six agains…..
Good Performance I thought- well done boys.
Top 4 feels farkin good.

Pfft at least 3 points to Ponga in the Daly M tonight what are you on about

 

[CWC]

Good solid win over the bottom team and get the monkey off the back. No injuries and we are 5-2

They are over killing the team song now lol, these singers promoting themselves

 

[Dlenai]

Knights are such a physical ugly team to play, can’t seem to put them away

So happy with the win, hopefully no injuries out of it and we continue to scrap for every game

5 wins 2 losses is amazing considering our roster this year, and the injuries we have

 

[roguei]

Honestly gotta be metcalf's best game. Would of been 3 more trys off of him if we had a more experienced 2nd rower, center and winger. Really simple icing of some opptunities.
