Post Match Warriors v Knights - [Round 8, 2025]

[Inruin]

Seems to be the way we do things this year…

Yup, but 2 points is 2 points.

 

[Barzak]

Good: Ford off the bench much better. Erin Clark is a monster. Youngsters gaining confidence.
Bad: Attack still clunky, couple of poor reads on D. Wingers flying in. Niukore should be worried about Laban taking his spot.
Overall: we win again, we win ugly. Looks like that our plan this year. Optimism still high. Can’t wait till we’re at full strength.

 

[Wah u talkin about Wallis]

Interesting that after the 2 sin bins, no one really hit high. That ref kills a game, did not flow, 10m not constant.

 

[Mr Drag]

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.

Not bad without Fish! and we winning without even getting close to our potential

 

[3rdstriker]

Flat boring scrappy game but we got the 2 win.
Great game from Capewell again he's winding back the clock,
With Egan, Clark, and Ford tonight had superior effort.

 

[Worried2Death]

Tough win, we were brutal. Rocco looked like a science experiment from Frank N Furter's ĺab by the end.

 

[Leon Black]

Clark and Egan were exceptional. Shouldn’t be disappointed we won an Anzac Day game for the first time in a 1,000 years.

I thought we were poor and missed a lot of tackles in the second half. Webster’s mishandling of the bench has worried me from day 1 he started as head coach.

Still gobsmacked he didn’t pull Rocco with 20 to go, poor cunt could hardly see. Wonder what game he is watching at times.

Still, we are in the top 4, but we have 4 away games now. Next month will define our season IMO.

Oh there were head highs. The ref had lost the whistle up his anus by that point.

 

[Defence]

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

Nah nah he wants to play for the kiwis now- no points for u!

 

[Canonball]

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.

Yeah he was good - didn't think it was as ugly as some rating either - there were some substantial steps forward there - the knights are a terrible side tho

He had the blood flowing like Stone Cold Steve Austin from Wrestlemania 13. Like Stone Cold he didn't quit.

@MrFrankWhite waiting for the Muppets to say we should replace him with TMM/Boyd.

 

[the WARs]

Good to beat the certain wooden spooners for 25.. should really have had another couple tries had the boys clicked better ... how good we looking when DWZ RTS come back into the wings ..JFH ....

 

[1995warriorsfan]

So we are 2nd, wow !!

 

[Gummy bear]

7 missed tackles
3 ineffective tackles
3 errors.

blood or not it was a poor night's work from Roco

Yeah a bit weird. I think if anything was ugly it was our defense. We were losing the grind this game and only scored off of penaltys or mistakes. What I mean by that is, we could not plant ourselves in there 20 like we could for other teams. We only got into the 20 via that.
And we should be winning in any grind. It was 10-20 meters they gained on us per tackle, where we were only gaining 6-12.
I think this game we must of had the least amount of tackles in there 20.

 

[KO WAI RA]

Has Metcalf got hamie issues again!!!!
Crowd brought the atmosphere….
Awesum mahi

need to sort the goal kicking pronto

 

[Wah u talkin about Wallis]

We need to be better against the Cowboys. They can attack and have our old defence coach.

Hopefully it's just cramp. When he got that intercept and went down and he was stretching himself he was pretty flexible. Hopefully all of that is working on his hammies.
