Gameday Warriors vs Raiders - [Round 12, 2025]

[Boats n Hoes]

Pompey stopped to remove the momentum and advantage, the ref could have let it slide if he wanted.

He should have retired back over the line but im not sure if anything wouldve made a difference in that one.

That said im sure you could find a foot somewhere in front of the kicker in every drop out if one wished to.

 

[Ever Hopeful]

About what was expected TBH. Was going to be a tight battle, and the Warriors will need to be tough against a very good Raiders team. I feel a close loss coming tonight. Hopefully not, but it wouldn't be the end of the world.

 

[BarnesNZ]

Pompey... jeez after everyone big ups him

In Ancient Japan.. your ponytail/mullet/rats tail would be chopped off with a pair of sheep scissors as a sign of discrase to your clan/family...We have moved on as a society

 

[Beastmode]

8-8 is probably fair reflection of the game

It’s a tough grind

Hopefully we can use the wind with some bombs to challenge

 

[The Warrior Waka]

TMM on for CHT, Ford off, Laban on

I second this

 

[Wrighty]

Game looks like two top 4 teams. Close fought. High quality. The wet creating a few errors.

 

[borgy]

Hmm ... lacking footy IQ in some parts ... down to 12 tip on dumb in the rain..
Sticky will get his team to attack.. 2nd half, not sure if we can handle it...

 

[Worried2Death]

Right up there with the brain fart against the broncos when he held a jersey that disallowed our try to win the game

His bright yellow boots gave him away, he stood out like Big Bird doing that

 

[steakncheese]

Why does Josh Papalii always play so well against us?

He’s been playing well against everyone to be fair, he’s a beast to have off the bench

 

[Wah's Up]

Don't understand why we didn't take the 2 points

 

[CWC]

Have to dog fight them out of this one

Laban in the last 25 to help the middle maybe

 

[The Warrior Waka]

You don't think they've been trying to attack already? Lol. The rain evens things out. We just have to be patient. Some thought the raiders would own us in the forwards. Our forwards have looked good. Its the backs letting us down.

 

[CWC]

Not enough pressure from marker on kicker or leading chasers on the right

Not all the backs only Ali and Pompey

I would like to agree... but shit... the ref can change a game too... he did in the 1st half... we were too dumb to capitalise..

 

[Beastmode]

Don't understand why we didn't take the 2 points

We had momentum
3rd 6 again
They one man down
I can understand going for the try

Pity CHT butchered it with a terrible pass

 

[The Warrior Waka]

Not all the backs only Ali and Pompey

I said the backs. I didn't say how many of them. Channel hasn't been that great either.

 

[Worried2Death]

Come on Pompey, score the winning try and let's get this narrative back on track

 

[LeagueJunkie]

Lazy arm

 

[Jaffa J]

Demetric gotta fix that tackle technique always throwing the arm
