Post Match Warriors v Titans - [Round 8, 2024]

[MrFrankWhite]

The last year I've said our attack inside the 20 being impressive is great but we rely on getting all of the way up field before we are a threat. We need to be a threat from further out.

Tries like that Titans first one when they made a break and had guys supporting would be nice. They have the speed to do that.

Since when do we put it through the hands in our half?

 

[Zaggo]

Montoya ain't the guy. He's a solid grafter, tries hard, but he isn't what we need.

We desperately need an aerial option like we used to have with Fus or Manu. Look how effective tall wingers like Don Young or Daniel Tupou have been, even Lomax against us last week.

Theres only enough room for one hard running rocks for brains winger in this team.

 

[Wrighty]

Another positive is that tonight was Roger's far best outing at center by a mile. So at least he improved.

He also dropped two defensive bombs which admittedly were contested. But he is not good under the high ball.
I said last week Pompey should be playing just to stop the mistakes happening.

Funny what happens when teams actually compete for kicks isn't it

Far too kind.

Hope he has a few stern words with the team internally and its not that same message.

Problem is I don’t think he has a mean bone in his body

Or have yet to see it…

I don't see us winning our way into the GF with Montoya's blunders. And I know I risk being attacked by the BerrySiah people but he needs another stint in NSW cup to fix his one on one defence. He is a liability on defence at the moment. Specifically and this comes from my days playing rugby union and being a good tackler, is that when you legs tackle you chop them just above the knee and you slide down and strangle around the ankles. Berry is going straight for the ankles which any decent player can burst through.

I was looking for that !!!

 

[Worried2Death]

Oh well. What really kills you is the hope. We took the lead 12-0 and we were all thinking we could win this by 50. And then at the end with set after set in their red zone thinking they must crack surely. Being a Warriors fan is a mind fuck !!! You can guarantee before the match starts that the warriors will have the lead at one point.

I was thinking 70-10 to us and finally expunging the memory of our all our Anzac losses. And then, that fateful 20 minute mark, it couldn't possibly happen again ...could it? You're right again wrighty, it's the hope that kills you.

 

[Wrighty]

It was not a banana skin game at all. They were on more of a roll coming into this match than we were. The TAB odds having us heavy favourites were completely misguided.

 

[Playdaball]

Just so gutted !
This season promised so much but is falling off a cliff, big time

I hate to say it, but im losing a bit of faith in him. Being positive is great and all that, but at what point does that start to be counterproductive. The players look like they believe the hype right now, and have zero repercussions for shit performances, and nothing Webster has said leads me to believe he can turn it around. He says he hates excuses, but every week hes gone on about how tired we are, how hard the games of football are. Sounds every bit an excuse to me.

Watching the Roosters pull the Dragons to pieces. Remember they whipped us.
SPEED nothing beats it and we just don't have any.
Not going to win this year so at least give something a go.
SPEED
SPEED Kio from cup maybe. Montoya is a slug. Another prop wing and that does'nt work

 

[Tookey 2.0]

It seems to be a theme this year that the offloads been killing us. Several this game (Tits first try, Fifita to Brimson, Kelly to Khan-Periera), the big long range try to Storm, they seem to be absolute momentum killers for us.

 

[Worried2Death]

Have to say Mt Smart looks pretty ordinary in the daylight, the old stands are getting shabby. I prefer it in the darkness with the dimmest lighting rig of any ground.

Played GC on ANZAC Day in 2015, lost that game too SJ only survivor

I put a lazy tenner on the Titans at 4.10 because those were silly odds. I also put 20 on the Dragons last week at 2.70 because that seemed a bit too generous as well, so maybe I'm part of the problem. At least the odds won't be as favourable on the Warriors next game...

 

[Aman 2.0]

The worst part is we decided we actually wanted to win and turned it in for 30 mins. Even AFB started running like he meant it.

What the fuck were they doing for the rest of the game?
