2023 SF Sat - Warriors 40-10 Newcastle @ Go Media

[Apey]

Yeah if both teams are as good as their last turnout than this is going to be an awful game.

 

[Leber]

We are playing a team who has won 10 on a trot.

Home ground advantage is our only asset. Not confident at all.

 

[Brian potter]

Heart says warriors but my head says knights.

 

[THE CHAMP]

Warriors for sure

Warriors defended Penrith better than most last week. We are just that much better

 

[The Man Shake]

Warriors by 4. The Knights will be in better form than their first finals game but I’m expecting a very clinical performance from the Warriors and their forward pack impresses me. So them in a tight one.

 

[Haffa]

Former Canberra Raider Mitchell Barnett to be sent off for racism.

Knights by 13. Tyson Gamble MOM.

 

[Marshall_magic]

A week ago I was confident Newcastle would win this fixture. Sunday morning I was even more confident. Now I really don’t know, neither side played particularly well at all over the weekend.

Do we mention the elephant in the room about ponga being concussed at the end of the Raiders game or is that off limits?

Nah.

 

[wittyfan]

Warriors 66-0.

wonder which player Gamble will falsely accuse of a bite this week to fire up the troglodytes.

There was slobber!!!

 

[Penrose Warrior]

I thought the Knights were shown up yesterday.

They won't have a team that can't play in the 2nd half and a home crowd to get them through. Warriors 13+ with or without Johnson

No way in the wide world we can win 13+ without SJ. If we won without him, it'd be an arm wrestle - which I don't think you can get into with the Knights too readily.

He needs to be named today, and to play. Our kicking game was atrocious last week, and we had zero creativity in the attacking zone.

Will be very, very interesting as to what side Webster names. A lot of us fans want more size on the bench, rather than the lack of impact that Tevaga/Sironen/Curran/Lussick brings. I'd love to see Lussick not there at all - he played nine effing minutes last week. Him out, Afoa/Ale in.

Can a concussed player take a kick for goal?

What is they slip and hit their head on the grass? Or maybe it bounces off the upright into their face.

All consistent with shoving your arm in someone's mouth.

What Cat 1 or Cat 2 signs do you think he was showing?

 

[Valheru]

What Cat 1 or Cat 2 signs do you think he was showing?

Well he could barely stand and didn't look like he knew his own name

If you think the contact with the ground didn't at least warrant a HIA from what we have seen this year then I can't help you.

Meanwhile the roosters self reported Sualli for a cat 3 well after the fact which ruled him out the rest of that game and the next one.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Sweep sweep

Not like Newcastle to sweep anything under the carpet.

There greatest ever player was always upfront during his playing career.

I think even Knights fans will admit he was 100% staying down for a penalty.

This is the same club that held him out of the side for 2 months and sent him all the way to the US to get medical care. If the trainer believes he’s alright, he’s alright.

No way they’d let him take the penalty kick to win the game if they genuinely thought he was concussed. He’s not the best goal kicker at the best of times.

I also don’t see what the Roosters or Sualii have to do with anything.

Have a look at the actual contact with the ground. If he wasn't concussed then so be it but absolutely it warranted a HIA
