Post Match Warriors v Raiders - [Round 3, 2024]

[Christchurch_Warrior]

Some utter nonsense in that game. I thought Ford played the ball with balance and control, then lost balance after the fact. CHT def taken in the air! The HIA for head clash! Surely both heads that are involved must be sent for HIA!

Not arguing it but the head clash between Walsh and May only saw Walsh go for an HIA from memory.

 

[John Nick]

We don't really score from long range. Inside the 20 we are deadly.

The tries from 40 out would be a lot more common if guys making breaks would set up the next pass. It seems like we have had quite a few guys put through holes the last season and either slipped over in the break or failed to set up the support. Well mainly the starters, cause Ale did it well. It may have not ended up scoring play but he handled it better than a few of his experienced team mates.

Looking better the more time he gets

As good as Helen Clarke after 24 beers. Which is still not good. But we won! And I'm a grumpy dick!

You're a grumpy dick because you keep looking at pictures of Helen Clark.

Is it just me or does Rocco get bigger every game? Lol.

The berrysiah has not even his final form yet. i expect him to have a power level of over 150 million

The messiah is empowered by his followers. The more there are, the bigger he gets.

Can see why the Raiders got those quick tries last year. Coming out of their half they are well spread out, so they had the opportunity to move the ball. A lof of teams bunch deep and then spread as they get up the field.

We have good shape so no reason we couldn't do it to sides late.

I'd love to see us do some of our plays we do inside the opposition 20 deeper. We create overlaps. Imagine DWZ being unleashed with space from 40-50 metres out.

 

[Mr Drag]

Holding them to 10 is great d! other than that DWZ was great and AFB up to his high standards

 

[WarriorsForever]

Knights will be desperate next week especially if they lose against the storm this weekend. Will be another tough battle.

 

[The Shah of Iran]

I have to give Canberra credit as I had slightly underestimated their form heading into this one. I'm happy that we had to win with defence and grit. I'm sure Webby will be addressing the lack of composure in closing out the game.

Shout out to Barnett, Ford and Tohu. Metres were hard to come by but they all toiled away. Very valuable contributions.

I'd rather we build to something than explode out of the blocks and trail off.

I know their opposition hasn't been the greatest. But you can only beat who is in front of you. They were averaging 5 tries a game so defensively we can take some confidence.

You know they're coming yet you still open them

1600 and a Warriors W... Good night

Night sarge, every little victory wins the war, see you back at the front next week.

 

[Makasene]

Credit to Canberra, they lack any real game breakers so have to bring you into the grind - man did they do that.

What to do about red zone attack? Is there a more sideways team than us? Taine had at least two balls out the back running towards the sideline, Metcalf shuffling Montoya over the sideline is a pretty natural play for him.

Anyway, 2 points on the board and back to MSS next week against Newcastle who will be tough but we will be favourites.

If Taine is out, RTS to full back and there will be some juicy debate this week about whether Ali or Pompey comes in (even though we all know it will be Pompey).

 

[3rdstriker]

we have a team that can create a bit, but also can defend well with good hits from Bunty&cht.
So good to get the 2 points well done.

 

[Peachey2023]

Berry another good game, happy to see jazz just do his role thought he was good can’t see lussick in our 17 when Egan fit as CHT showed he can play that hooker role if needed as well as covering a lot of other positions. Tuapiki has also been good at fullback if he is out next week RTS to fullback and Ali likely gets his 2nd game. Our backline depth is best it’s ever been.

 

[Playdaball]

Good to see Jazz back to his best - a couple of good low tackles

 

[Makasene]

As would any side in the NRl.

Absolutely pisses me off Warriors fans ignore their teams outs and cannot subtract mathematically

Thank you for agreeing with me
