2016 R26 - Warriors 18-40 Eels @ Mt Smart Stadium

[KeepingTheFaith]

The point is, they can win games by playing their style. They do. Just not enough. If there was a bit less wrestle and a maybe a rule like the SL free play rule the Warriors would probably win at least a few more games. And that's what I mean by their style doesn't lead to success. And that sucks because it's far far more entertaining than the shit we see from the likes of Melbourne. This sport was designed to be entertaining. The NRL has developed into something that does not fit that ethos.

Our style isn't the problem. Tries 1, 2, and 3 the Eels scored are examples of why we lose more than we win.

 

[Spade]

He was.... 5 years and a couple of leg injuries ago

He was the next big thing at Penrith, he would've been brilliant, then the knee injuries hit.

 

[Dr Crane]

This crowd is twice what this game deserves

Ken Maumalo is a special player

 

[Lemon Squash]

I chucked $50 on the megabet Radradra and French both to score a try @ $8/1

Nice

 

[Rhyno]

Yeah but they're symptomatic of the style because it's all related to attitude and mindset. It's why they're rocks and diamonds. It's just a shame the game doesn't allow their diamonds to shine a bit more.

How so? Genuine question.

It's only the top two inches (or lack of) of the guys on the back that screw us every week.

It would be better all round if the game rewarded attacking, off the cuff, entertaining football more.

Soft.

 

[Rhyno]

Nice

Eels should be playing finals footy

Another try to Bivin Frinch.

I feel sorry for the loyal fans who turned out to Mt Smart in the rain, to think I almost went myself
