Bronco's will win the premiership easily after that shit effort from the Warriors, they were just lucky they played our shit team!

Fair call by the video ref, given that the onfield ref called it a try. I would have been stunned if he overturned it.

Not great defense in the last 5 mins....but...oh well

Absolutely f*cking disgusting defense and absolutely no desire at all to win with those last two tries.
I hope none of them make it to first grade cause I don't want any part of that piss poor attitude in first grade.

Don't think we got a Call the whole game, but should never have lost leading by 7 with 4 mins to go

Some ordinary defence from Muna and Goodall at the end

Show to make GFs you need a reasonable amount of luck , as well as calls, bad luck boys . A disappointing end to the seqson

Heartbroken Eels are left strewn across the ground as some sporting Warriors come up to pay their respects. While the last call may be stinging right now they will be left to rue a terrible first half that saw them give up a 13 point lead.

They were by far the better team in the second half but lapses of concentration in the last handful of minutes gave the Warriors enough room to steal the win.

A bitter end to a fantastic season for mine. Plenty of these kids will be going around again next year while Wenty and our NRL squad will be bolstered by a number of talented graduates.

That will be all for my calls this year as well. I will chuck together a season review/iconographic at some point but thanks for the ride chaps!

We did Poo and Moeroa as well.
Starting to think Kaysa will never reach his potential. A little man hitting like a big man certainly takes its toll on his body.

Anyway, a few things from what I have seen this year.

Tyrrell Fuimoano and Josh Ailoai have first grade potential. Alex Twal was quiet tonight but is a good prospect too. ZDC has a very good kicking and running game, but I'm not sure he'll ever be a first grader

Those who think Matterson is a better option than Norman at this point are on drugs. So are those who think Goodall is a better option than Morgan/Toutai.

Nathan Davis is probably the next back off the rank

We were fairly ordinary really, accept for 2 hard straight runs.

There's a definite game plan/structure within the Club that I don't think will ever win an NRL Premiership.

Until the entire Club shows respect and attention to detail to the play the ball area and realises that going forward is an important aspect in consistently being able to win matches then I think we will forever be a mid table team.

where was the extra camera angle from the back? he clearly had no control over the ball and it hit a defenders hand meaning a knock on.
Well i guess they got what they wanted 2 out of sydney teams in the u20's since they have 2 sydney teams in the NRL.

Also the people blowing up are all pretty much morons. It's NYC, that's pretty much the status quo....most of them aren't good defenders til a fair but later in their careers.

Argh.....what a waste of a good season

I understand the disappointment....but it's not a waste of a season. At the end of the day the U20s are about identifying talent and getting value out of it. We got Moeroa, Pauli into FG, ve retained Matterson and Kaysa will be around. Pity about Kelepi, but them's the breaks. I think Aloiai may have a future, and who knows about each of the wingers..
