Some Frustrating moments.
Were the season not on the line it wouldn't have hurt
I'm guessing folk will feel different about it possibly mid week when the frustration wears off.......
The thing is aside from the faults.....that was one hell of a contest, you couldn't ask rugby league players...
He is the franchise player of the club so they are building the rest around that one player.
Plenty of Warriors fans are nervous about Ivan Cleary luring him off to Penrtih , Johnson has had a couple of minor disagreements with Elliot ( Johnson was one of our players who tweeted that they...
IF you play like you did against the Warriors , your pack especially against the Knights....they will be dead meat.
Seriously the Knights struggled against the Warriors forwards and the Warriors weren't playing as well as when Brisbane nearly / probably deserved to beat us ( I rate your pack...
MOM
3. Sam Thaiday In a game for men he was the Alpha Male , one of the gutsiest hard man performances from a Forward in the NRL in years. PLayed Origin , Turned up to the Jungle and Bolwed our Props like bowling pins. All over the park , firing up a desperate gang of queenslanders from the...
I think we will see a repeat of that intensity this time around as well , hopefully it doesn't kill both teams off , I don't know what happened with the Bronco's drop off after that.
But imo ( and a lot of people talked about that game ) that drop goal broke the Warriors.....Mclennan lost any...
Correct.
Matt Eliot recond if comes right he's a guaranteed starter ( he has some competition with Fish going well at the moment as well though as far as fan opinion goes )
Strong side on paper.
Could be the clash of the round / a real special if they go for the vengeance they are due.
I didn't mean to sound overly cocky ( because I'm not ) the facts are the Warriors are the team feeling super confident right now and if Brisbane take them down a peg I wouldn't...

True they come off the Bye rounds very poorly traditionally.....the Warriors forum has a thread dedicated to that very topic it's called ' Gordon Tallis's comments about the bye or something along those lines....after Gordy pointed out what you have on one of the shows he's on.
While it's true that you never know which Warriors team will turn up as a general rule........I can assure you after attending every home game at Mt Smart since 1995 that the Warriors will show up for this one.
They are a confidence team , when they are down they're chopped liver , when they...
Yeah I was just curious as to how crap you lot thought Griffin was.
Pretty Crap it seems. We'll be looking for a new coach eventually , you dump yours we'd sign him up.
btw Hurrell was sent down to the NSW because of terrible unforced errors and defensive issues.
In the NSW cup he has been...
Could work unless you pick the really good ones.
Then it's a moot point , you'll lose them through suspension in the lead up to test matches.
Should be a good game , both clubs are having rocky season ( I'd trade ours for yours thanks )
Kemp and Fisiahi will be an interesting mark up , battle...
Cheer up lads.
Your lot beat up on a fair few of ours....Johnson lost....Ropati , Fisiahi , Godinet .....all under an Injury cloud because of how physical the Broncos played.
Even as a trial match it lived up to the emotion of some of the past contests.
I'm thrilled Dunedin ( as Vossy pointed...
LETS GO TO WAR BRISBANE !!!!
Good luck for the game tonight, plenty of respect deserved for both line ups after the last Rumble.....this game could be very special all the Ingredients are there for a clash that could send shock waves through the eight....the loser may not be gone by Sunday...
Cheers Browny , its a great game Rugby league, and to be honest playing against Lokyer tonight at home will be the kind of experience our newbies remember for the rest of their careers. Got me beers stocked up and a few mates and family coming around for a winter BBQ , kicks off at 930 NZ time...
