Vs Panthers Rd11

[Manu Vatuvei]

But I'm even more confused now. A 'strip'? But wouldn't that be a one-on-one strip, and therefore legal? It was just Pompey and the Panther, wasn't it?

Either way it was all meant to be. It tested our ticker, so to speak. Us fans I mean, and us forum members right here, specifically. We passed the test, although I'd like to hear from a few others soon, just to be sure.

It wasn’t during that initial collision. I think it happened several seconds later and was probably penalised for being a strip after the tackle was completed. They never really showed it properly though.

[Philip_Smith007]

We're hammering the Panthers physically. Barnett is huge, but we need at least one more try with the excellent defender, Yeo, in the bin.

Barnett was huge and in everything!

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Not great, probably lucky not to go to the bin

The hip drop looked different as it happened from the side vs back.

 

[Philip_Smith007]

I've just watched the match highlights. So, that last penalty which Edwards missed, had Pompey tackling the Panther after he had his foot on the ground. Isn't that not 'tackling in the air'?

I think they called it lost back, then Panthers regathered and we stripped it out of what they called a tackled Panther, as we thought it would be called lost forward as all those normally do.

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Webby should have words to Jazz about blowing our challenge early- might have been a much better time to play it. Thankfully it didn’t matter.

Ah, that answers my question as to who that was who blew it. Jazz is far too hot-headed to be a captain. However, he is a leader, and he was epic yesterday, so we'll forgive him.

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Wow - that is a great win.

8 1st choice players out including Harris, SJ and Egan

8 first choice players out, and AFB was completely anonymous. To win with those 8, and AFB a non-entity, is just off this planet against a three-peat premier. It's just impossible to get my head around.

I feel great for TMM, he was given space to prove he can play footy - which we knew before he came here - started scratchy with a poor kick to the corner, but hardly put a foot wrong past that. Our kicking game was adequate, his short passing game was incredibly good, he just ran the side so well.

 

[Shaun Hewitt]

I'm still surprised at that.
We just never gave up, so much mana on display.

Given the circumstances, especially early on with all the injuries (ie when Ford and Egan both off, and others showing niggles) this has to be one of the best victories in recent memories.

 

[Penrose Warrior]

For true-blue since the start fans, where does this one rank in terms of all-time gutsy, against the odds efforts? Obviously the Storm 08-11 finals, but I mean in terms of round robin games, too. Any others stick out?

I keep going back to the match against the Dogs in 2001, the comeback at Wespac. I'll always remember that game.

We also stunned them in the finals a couple of seasons later although I know the point is regarding round robin games.

Our history is all a depressing blurry cloud in my brain

Nah, finals are good too. That 48-22 game was against the odds? I lived in England so I don't remember it.

From what I recall, no one really gave us a chance, then BANG Meli with 5 tries in the match

Yeah, there are some on that list that i don't remember too well, but the majority ring a bell.

One other game that really sticks out that's not mentioned because it wasn't a close game, or would be considered a 'gutsy' performance - About 22 or 23 years ago at Mt Smart vs the Panthers. We absolutely hammered them, and I remember Rhys Wesser going to score and knocks the ball on trying to put the ball down one handed.

 

[Shaun Hewitt]

Just realized, I feel the 2001-2003 Warriors for me, was the golden era.

I just loved that squad. Jones, Tookey, Villasanti, Ali, Toopi, Meli, FaaFili, Paleaasina, Tony, Swann, Guttenbeil, Cleary, Marsh, Betham, Myles, Seuseu, Hohaia, Carlaw, Webb, Murphy, Faumuina... I'm sure I'm missing more

I think its been mentioned in another thread but there was the huge defensive display against Penrith many years ago.
Penrith were given the run of the coop by the ref that day and we were just camped on our tryline for what seemed like most of the game. Tackles inside the 20 was 59-8. Somehow we didnt concede and won 12-6 with no scoring by both teams in the second half.
Found this link. hard to find a video with any quality.

Great call, I remember that game. Didn't Micheal Luck make 70 tackles? EDIT it says 62.

Not as epic as Sunday, but very similar start to the match.

I'm sure it was this: https://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/...10/newcastle-knights-vs-warriors/summary.html

It's early into 2002 and we weren't taken completely seriously as a club yet - Wairangi Koopu dropped the kick-off straight out the sideline, let out an epic f-bomb, and usually that's all it took for us to get reamed.

But I remember this was one of the first times we put a gaffe like that behind us, stuck to the plan and ended up putting away Newcastle in their home turf (they ended up second on the ladder that season).

I recall Ray Warren specifically calling out a new "mental toughness" never before seen with us.
