Big improvement over last week, actually enjoyed it, still not the result we wanted but then again it was good see a bit of resolve again finally.
Thought Fish had improved alot actually put in a few good tackles.Mannering? Was that the same guy or a look alike? I doubt he'll have another like that again.
Anyway I now have a bit of hope that we will see something half decent come of the year.

Not sure the hate on Mateo. His blind side raids looked promising. He needs ball in hand more not less. Tupou is mud. Has he EVER made a play that was surprising, a play where the commentator says something like 'he had no right to score that' , never. Godinet has to play 60 minutes with maybe TL slotting in when he is off. If Taylor never played for us again I wouldn't be sad. Another player who has never done anything outstanding.

Anyway

1. Matulino
2. Godinet
3. Lawrie

Special mention, fish, lilliman and Locke.

PS add Steve Rapira to the don't want to see again list. Have never seen him do anything special.

Hurrell is a liability to us right now. I mean FFS, why the f**k was he trying to pick a fight with SBW - focus on your game first you genius. He knocked the ball on - roosters score. gives away a penalty - roosters score. Knocks on in the final play - game over.

Prefer if he just fakes one of those stupid injuries and gets sub`ed by Elliot.

+3 Lillyman
+2 Matulino
+1 Minichello - dumbass merkin gave us two free tries.

-3 Hurrell
-2 Mateo / Mannering
-1 Choker Johnson

In looking to replace Hurrell dont discount Peyroux. As I live some distance away from Maurice Rd Penrose ie Gold Coast Qld to get live league I go to the titans home games.
Peyroux looked ok in the games he played , he has got the will to win.
Hurrell and Tupou are a liitle lazy and a bit slow in the football attitude department.

Better application of their brain and heart this week

3. Matulino
2. Godinet
1. Johnson

Go away and never come back:
Hurrell - this fellow has no resembling organ he can possibly call brain...he is brainless, and also has same match fitness of kim dotcom
Taylor - (Mara back to start, better for Godinet to come off bench fresh)
Tupou - (still useless winger of the world, tonight only need to fall on ball to score, but I want to strangle him when he didnt force SKD dead)
S Rapira - who is this fool that they give Warriors jersey to each week?

3:Matulino
2:Godinet
1:Johnson (pity about goal kicking)

Good to see a bit more heart.
Refs had a shocker, thankfully video ref finally stepped in at the end on Locke knock on call, which was either deliberate knock on or man tackled without the ball.

Mara has to start.

Hurrell needs replacing

Much better effort from our boys this week. Glad to see Elliot listened to my advice in the team v roosters thread and brought Godinet on with 10 to play in the first half and kept him on all second half ;-)

3 Matulino
2 Godinet
1 Lowrie

Hon mention Nielson, Lillyman.

St Rapira must've injured his glass self again? Though if not, still good choice to keep him off. Not really sure what he brings to this team.

Hurrell needs early ball in a position where he can be one-on-one with his opposite. But his defensive reads are so terrible he should be in the vulcans.

Thought Fisiiahi went okay, too.

Ok, I wake this morn with contrite heart...my anger has subsided like a flowing tide. I am sorry and take back for saying bad things about Hurrell, Toupou, S Rapira & Taylor. I know you run on to field with intention of always winning, and makeing fans like Abdullah happy. OK. so you make mistakes, some small some large, so whatever team is called against the sharkies, I hope all of you do better.

Johnson needs to learn to ignore the crowd and the cameras.

And the media in general.

I've come here for a reality check after missing the game. On 'Stuff' it was all about 'magic Johnson'. I thought he single handedly won it for the Warriors.

Then I quickly found out they didn't even win.

I remember losing close games with Brent Webb goal kicking... Johnson should have at least nailed the kick off his try. Otherwise was a lot better this week. Anyhow

3 Matulino
2 Godinet
1 Lillyman

Not sure why Feleti went with the fancy pass at the end when a simple pass to his man would have sufficed. He had a good game for the most of it though, had a blatant strip missed by Ashley Klown who is without doubt the worst ref in the comp.

Hurrell looks short of a gallop, may need a few weeks in the Vulcans. No doubting he has immense potential. The first try, I felt for Hurrell and Fish that I'd come in here and they'd be blasted when really the inside channels didn't work hard enough to push out. Fish's chase on Jennings was an outstanding effort. He's just got to get the ball in the clear and he's going to burn a few teams. Lowrie was good on D. Simon Mannering's hands were horrible tonight. Worst game of his career.
