Just got back from the game. What an atmosphere it was. Warriors fans are the best. Some observations I made from the game.

Our ruck defence is still shit. Players falling off tackles, etc.
Leiataua and DWZ can't tackle and defend for shit.
Jackson Ford is a machine and made some good runs tonight.
CNK is not the player he once was. I don't think he should be fullback moving forward.
Boyd and CHT had good games.
Naufahu Whyte was a handful all night and most improved.
Tedesco is a tackle breaking freak.

We won is all that matters.

You look at that Roosters team on paper and it looks like a great team. The way they carried on in the game and then again in the press conference leads me to think that their victim mentality is going to rub them out of the top spots. Absolutely pathetic, you'd think there was a howler after howler in the officiating. They need to take a look in the mirror at their own horrible discipline, handling and the mental headspace they were in.

After they look in the mirror they need to take a look at the way the Warriors operated, which was superb. Well done Warriors; what a fantastically well coached and lead team.

I’m sending a shout-out to Foxtel — especially Anasta (most overrated player of all time) and Kevin Walters (most unimportant Walters of all time).

At halftime of the Roosters–Warriors game you ran a segment on the Roosters’ loss… featuring an interview with DCE. Not a single plaudit for the team that put 40 on them. Plenty of Kiwis live in Australia, by the way.

Sort your shit out or lose more subscribers, you biased muppets. At least Dan Ginnane shows some respect. The rest of you can go and get fucked.

Ups to Boydie who was on a hiding to nothing.

Took the ball to the line and did what halfbacks are supposed to do.

I'm very interested to see how he progresses before Metz gets back

Sorry poll now up. I got a bit carried away with the win.

Starting to wonder how Capewell keeps doing what he does.

Can I say anyone who talks shit about Jacko Ford should be banned for a week. Case closed

Long off season, round 1 home game, sold out Mt Smart, anticipation sky high. I was so worried that we were gonna drop this one but goddamn that was superb.

Well done lads.

MOM for chooks was Ali. We play anyone on his edge and this is 40-6. Replacing him is way more important than getting Metcalf or Barney back. Heck I'd even give Gannon a Crack there.

Jacko Ford=220m. Even the haters gotta admit he has become instrumental to our side.

Chooks can whine all they want about the penalty count but they were lucky they still had 12 let alone 13 remaining on the park. Their cynical tactics couldn't hide the fact that we clearly won the middle. Once that happened they just self exploded really. Their impatience and lack of finesse is why I don't see them challenging Penrith or Melbourne.

Fuck me I’ve had one too many and plan to have one too plenty more…. Seriously who saw that scoreline coming for us?

How much a calming influence are JFH & CHT

Can't beat a Friday night win. Up the Wahs

Great result! Hitting round 1 and we looked prepared. Compare that to Vegas last season where we looked shell shocked. Good to see.

Happy for Boyd and I hope this kicks his confidence levels up a couple of notches. He organized the team well and that allows CHT, who has carried on from last season, to do his thing.

All round team effort - Ali didn't have the best game but I'd stick with him.

Best things for me is that it appears that we are seeing a lot of what many had highlighted from last sesdon. Using the ball with controlled offloads, asking questions in attack, Egan getting a spell, good shape in the opposition 20.

Only one game but I'm loving what I'm seeing.

Side note: No Marata and our best performance for a long time

Ford had 17 runs in the first half. He was still plugging holes in the defence in the 2nd.

Jackson ford MOTM for me, 70 mins game 1 in a very physical game.

I know he's not liked by a lot. But man he was great tonight.

He does a lot of work.

I was a bit worried about his shoulder. He played through. Hopefully it's not an issue when it cools down.

Fish played like the guy we thought we got last year and we were dissapointed.

I think man of the match has to go to Tannah Boyd, he was play far better than all of our expected ceiling he has.
Goals 6/7 makes a huge difference to a season

Jackson ford MOTM for me, 70 mins game 1 in a very physical game.

First month of a season, all that matters is stacking wins early, whether it's by 1 point or 20.

Having said that, so much more fun stacking by 20.

Great start.

Fish man of the match for me. Really had a tough, hard nosed approach and took Whyte on up front early on. Imo set the tone for the match. Loved seeing him dominate the young buck, gave him no room to move and made great meters. Later on had arguably the save of the game with Collins in under the posts, its a different game with 7 to go ans only down by 6.

Chanel was great, Boyd was great.

Interestingly, numbers were waaaay down for both Clark and CNK, I wonder if that was an intentional plan by Webby to try and keep them fresh.

Overall - fucking stoked. What a performance. A +

Edit: 5 offloads for JFH...fucking hell son. To put that in to context thats the same amount of times he offloaded ALL year last year...

Congratulations to you guys, long suffering, stuck by them for years, finally get a round one thrashing of a top four club on a Friday night with the whole NRL watching.

You all deserve this glow, enjoy it Whanau much love from a brother fan.

Good Fkn Game!
Big Apologies to Egan and Boyd, killed it. Especially Boyd, had huge pressure on him and he delivered.
