2024 R17 Sat - Warriors 32-16 Brisbane @ Go Media

[Penrose Warrior]

That was me, and while you are correct that you're more beatable, I wouldn't consider it a weird take.

We were never going to have Patty, Haas, and Walsh jump on a plane to NZ after origin. Because of that (and today being a likely loss), next week is more crucial

Why not? This game was winnable and you might lose next week too. Probably competing for a spot in the 8 with us more than you are with the Panthers for the top 4.

Weird was wrong but gee I think you'd think about doing different in hindsight

You Aussies don’t know what you’re missing with the absolute fever dream that is the NZ commentary. Somehow Larmer, Blair and Betham all seem to have broadly the same cognitive defects and simply cannot put together either a coherent sentence or a logical thought. It’s 3 blokes all in the initial stages of a stroke at the same time, the whole time. Very uncanny vibe.

Not gonna lie that sounds exactly like the kind of chaos I can get behind

No aday the players look after themselves they can easily play 3 days later, they use to do it back in the day when they were pissheads.

I think the club has just decided to rest them as much as possible and hope that we are within reach of the 8 when Reynolds is back.

Patty has been absolutely fried, they are still slightly concerned about Haas's knee, and Walsh's hand is a bit sore anyway

No reason for SJ to ever be picked again. Awful player

I agree with the first part - this hammers a nail into the coffin of his first grade career.

However - I don't think that it's a case of him being awful, as much as his body just not being capable of doing things consistently anymore.

How many times has he fluffed passes, screwed up kicks & just been in the wrong place because he can't get to the right place in time?

All symptoms of the body just not keeping pace with his mind. Add to that an endless parade of injuries that take longer and longer to heal, and yeah.. he's cooked sadly

Sailor is f**king terrible haha

60 plus point turnaround from last week

gives them something to build on

 

[Manu Vatuvei]

Warriors have now won their last 6/6 the week after conceding 50+

 

[Rising from the Ashes]

Shoey in the crowd lol

Up the hawk tuwahs

Haha Up the Hawk Twahs banner.

happens heaps, I guess it helps the following week when you give up and drop the intensity for most the game

Broncos were absolutely mud, you're right it's a step in the right direction but gee we lucked in playing an understrength team that didn't show up at all

 

[Rising from the Ashes]

getting back to 20-16 and dropping the ball on halfway the next set killed the Broncos.

If you combine them all into one person would it be Blocker Roach? In terms of size, dribble & killed brain cells?

Why is she wearing that jacket

fml

 

[Perth Red]

Well done warriors, good bounce back.

 

[Rising from the Ashes]

Penrith have had key outs all year as well and are 10-4 - 2nd.

Broncos have had key outs all year and are 7-8 - 9th with a tough run home, be lucky to make the 8 from here, you don't rest origin players in a winnable matchup.
