Warriors totally disorganised...Jones and Hohaia are getting slaughtered.

Hope this happens next week as well against the Storm !!.

I'm still baffled as to how Hohaia's wasn't a try.

are you kidding me?
Hohaia knew it, i knew it and so did everyone else, except the idiot commentators and NZ fans
he had absolute ZERO control on that footy... should never be awarded, like Wintersteins on Friday night

Moon has been playing pretty well, Jones is a liability in defense and looks toothless in attack.

The ref is killing us with the penalties. Whenever the crowd boos he blows his bloody whistle. Fortunately the Warrirors drop it straight away every time.

As for the No Try, easy decision. You have to show you have control of the ball BEFORE you ground it. You can't drop the f**king thing and stick your hand on it simultaneously to it hitting the ground and expect to be given a try.

Good performance so far. Excellent defense again. We're so up and down.

Well, according to the rules it should have been a try.

Hurray, someone who understands the game.

Get a new rule book.

This simultaneous stuff is crap. That applies when the attacker and defender ground the ball at the same time. But not when an attacker has the ball, drops it and sticks his hand on it as it hits the ground! Thats called a knock on.

Got no problem with the Hohai no try. Don't let go of the ball and the ref doesn't have to toss a coin. Simple.

Well he didn't drop the ball did he? He still had his hand on it, it isn't the simultaneous rule I am referring to. It is the separation rule.

Broncos get tries like the Hohaia one awarded but the Warriors don't. Having said that, the Warriors only have themselves to blame for a poor performance so far.

Jones in for the warriors. Finally. Using his typical run around, finally worked for once.

Warriors finally on the board after after a questionable penalty. No one seemed to be obstructed from actually making a tackle.
