Rd 23 Warriors V GC Titans, Matchday

[GoSouths]

Cummins should just retire. Hes cooked. The first high tackle needed to be binned to set the tone. That just encouraged the Titans as basically unpunished, and now we lose CNK for 2 games with the next high shot. Then he goes overboard with the sendoff. Then he just loses the plot completely by binning Marata.
Should have been put out to pasture after the Canberra GF.

Reality check?

Hard to say as we’ve looked flat after all our byes. We seem to click midway through the 2H. The Broncos game we were way behind around the 60th min, the Dolphins game was close until mid 2nd half. We iced this game with less than 10 to go.

Warriors fans out number Titans!

Brimson didn't make it through warm-up!

2nd effort on Ford trying to play the ball unpunished!

SJ kick to big caughtin goal, 7 tackle set.

Short dropout regathered!l, Pompey knocked back to Egan.

AFB poor play the ball, then SJ didn't know it the last and dropped it to Barnett on halfway.

Lots of strapping for a tram off the bye.

Ford loses ball on their 40m hitting the line.

DWZ loses the ball on the 20m, captain challenge for high shot, shoulder into head flush! No bin, amazing. Shouldn't be surprised.

Berry interfered with, tries a quick tap on the mark and everyone onside and ref calls in back.

Ball to deep to Montoya from Metcalf goes to ground and Titans dive on.

2nd hair pull on DWZ and nothing again.

CNK nailed shoulder to head, consistency for week would be sent off! No different than Brown last night!

OMG consistency!!!! Gone for game! CNK won't be back by the look!

Start on their 40m.

Titans knock the ball on off a Warriors pass. Challenging, successful, how can they call that

Niukore standing his ground and penalised, yet Fafita pushed him first, Niukore in bin for 10mins, bullshit call, nothing for Fifita, f**k off. Crap crap ref who hates us, bunker only 2 high shots he didn't want to call, 2 hair pulls and nothing!

Monotya puts a ball down on our 30m spreading it early.

Fafita with elbows up in Niukore?

6 to go to long on Egan on halfway.

DWZ goes over in corner, Foran throwing hands up and gave up. Niukore angle run the question, SJ went behind him, double pump the issue, letter of the law for sure but wouldn't have changed anything.


HALFTIME

Metcalf chip and chase didn't pay off with average bounce. 4 Titans in the picture to get it.

FULLTIME

Earlier in the season I kept saying that we looked good generally but kept shooting ourselves in the foot. This was a throwback to that. We looked good enough to thrash them but kept making ridiculous mistakes. Toughness and stupidity as a style, it’s the Webster paradox.

2 hair pulls missed, captains challenges saved us a couple of times. Bunker missed knock on before Campbell's last try as well.

Hands really poor, positioning poor and execution. No support on half breaks toward end of game.

 

[Campion]

Referee was terrible.

 

[GoSouths]

 

[Grizzman]

Wow. Missed this game. I'm up in Alaska for the next month and as you can imagine, watching games is going to be a challenge. Sound like the game was a real scrap but we got the 2 pts so I'm happy!

 

[Penrose Warrior]

I never go down this path but that was a pathetically refereed game which set the tone for how messy it was.

Geezus we should feel lucky to get 2 points there. Without Johnson's maturity getting us there, we lose.

 

[Fufu Andronez]

The niukore bin might be the single shittest use of the sun bin I've ever seen.

Cummins absolutely lost control of that game, weird for a pretty senior ref

He's off his head.

Anasta bin for getting punched beats it, but a close 2nd.
You can see who the ref is can't you?

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Looking forward to the ref boss defending the decisions and let us know the difference between the DWZ head shot and the CNK one, how a slap after a push to the face is not 10mins that lead to the "slap" that was, plus the no penalty for the 2 hair pulls on DWZ.

No punishment for the blatant hair pull either, which should’ve been pulled up by the video officials. I get the whole “don’t have long hair in the way of you don’t want it pulled” argument but that applies to accidental hair pulls not blatantly grabbing a handful and yanking it like AKP did.

Club has to be asking for a please explain!

Club has to be asking for a please explain!

There’s clear video footage of it too which was replayed within seconds- no way the officials can claim to have missed it.

 

[nswarrior]

Yeah, the referee was very inconsistent and missed a few things.

But I thought we were better then just winning against a 12 man side for over 60 minutes who are not in the 8

We didn’t play that well I thought but again grateful for the win
