Wish Jamaine Lowe would smash the bigger forwards like that.
Manu Vatuvei possible injury? Hope so. Can only be good for Melbourne.

Warriors are shocking at times. Storm's left edge is wide open and they stuff it up everytime.
And Lance Hohaia, man, I dont know what to say about him.

Why is he out?

Seen 3-4 reliable posters (on 3 seperate forums) whose inside info I'd trust state that Locke and Fish both had minor injuries out of the Cowboys game but broke team protocol by failing to turn up for a medical assessment.

Second hand info, but based on the track records of these posters I'll back them and believe it's the case. Silly mistake by the two players in question.

Warriors a bit unlucky (in a sense) to be 8 behind. They created plenty of opportunities but haven't been good enough to capitalize on them. Our recent history probably suggests that if we are behind at HT, we're out of the contest. We capitulate in the last 20

Warriors fans thoughts on taking the 2?

I know hindsight is 20/20, but it pisses me off when my team takes the 2.

Canberra kept taking the tap last night and that took the sting out Parra very quickly.

I would have liked to see the Bros take the tap and make these Storm germs make a few more tackles.

Unfortunately the ball has to go through Maloney to get to that right edge. You're right, it's there to be torn apart, but I don't see it happening.

Malone's left to right passing is to poor, his vision is average and when in doubt he kicks and kicks poorly so far today.

Apparently beggars can be choosers

I groaned when Maloney and Mannering started talking because I knew it was coming. Having said that, they probably realise that they can't score tries from within the oppositions 20m zone and the kick for touch would've put them there.

Like I said at the time, if we followed it up with resolute defense, I would have no issue with it. But when we gift the Storm points by stupid errors (Hohaia) and indiscretions (Seymour), it proves the decisions wrong

Mind you, the way we're going, we should probably take the 2 whenever we get a penalty, wherever we get it. We probably have a better chance of kicking a goal from 80m out than scoring a try with back-to-back sets in the Storm's 20

:lol:

Seriously, with Locke and Inu in the team in place of Hohaia and Lousi, we could be up with the Storm, or ahead

 

[Scorpio30]

The sun is low over our right shoulders...Watch us not make use of it.

 

[Scorpio30]

Wow...some effort in our go forward.

 

[armchaircritic]

FFS Hohaia - would it kill you to support Mateo

 

[armchaircritic]

A brilliant shot would have put him on his arse you tool...

 

[Meth]

Good effort by Duffie.

Beautiful kick there caught Slater out, but no Warriors chasers of course

 

[Meth]

Oh Seymour....

 

[ceagle]

LOL@Seymour

 

[Scorpio30]

Bahahaha....
