Not sure yet, but my namesake might get onto the interchange bench...

 

[Rovelli]

24-24 in Toyota Cup...means Warriors get 3rd in a 4-way tie behind Brisbane (+208)?

 

[wittyfan]

Oh dear.

Eels are now back in the reckoning!

Another mong commentator employed by Fox Sports - Simon Woolford

I'm f**king sick of recent players getting behind the mic.

 

[wittyfan]

Not to mention non-players such as Ryan Phelan.

 

[Radioactive Man]

Dear Eels, Please win.
Signed, Newcastle.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Anyone have any idea why the Warriors were penalised after Hayne's chip? I'm mystified. Heroics from Manu though.

 

[innsaneink]

"A class of touch from raiders supporters"

LOL

Bizarre call.

 

[wittyfan]

11 straight kicks for Witty.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Where was the knock-on? That was a classic case of BOTD try.

Commentators claim the penalty against the Eels was harsh when it was blatant.

I'm supporting the Eels tonight btw, and the bias against the Warriors is more obvious than usual

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

There was no clear evidence at all that Hayne or Williams touched that ball, and Vatuvei's last touch certainly never went forward. The Warriors should absolutely be blowing up about that disallowed try.

 

[Dr Crane]

Why do we need to look at this one?

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Vatuvei OWNS Williams. Williams is like the white, gay, heavy metal loving version of Vatuvei.

 

[wittyfan]

12 straight for Witty.

 

[Dr Crane]

Jesus, that knock on was 50/50.

 

[innsaneink]

Gay AND heavy metal ???

Its even funnier when stereotyping fails.

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

UNBELIEVABLE

I feel like I have access to a whole new world of perception now that I'm supporting the Eels

The Warriors were just denied 2 completely legitimate tries due to utterly fabricated infringements by Vatuvei

In reality, BIG FKN MANU has scored 2 tries and set up 2 tries in 40 minutes, and the score is 26-6

There's only one BIG FKN MANU and Tony Williams ain't sh*t in comparison

 

[Rovelli]

We're up 14-6 at halftime and looking the better team.

However, we've blown a couple of chances close to the line/denied a try by the video referee.

It would've been nice to have, say, 20-6 lead at half-time, but if we can come out firing at the start of the 2nd half, something that we have NOT been doing recently, we'll go a long way to securing the win and a trip to Olympic Park next week.

Relax Warriors look good
