Nor will I, so pissed off.
The other thing that pisses me off is that Souths last week said they were going to upset us and they did it like its easy!

Also Inglis and the Burgess bros didnt really shine. Reynolds was all they needed in the end.

Just kills our momentum we were building from the previous games in that we were tenacious in our games with anyone. Souths of all teams, I NEVER saw that one coming yesterday!!

Its hard being a Warrior fan. If we win a GF, us fans would probably end up crying cos its just so damn hard. It'll be like freedom of the slaves.

Oh please? Tui tackles like SJ and catches like Manu. Fullback is the last position for him. (And 6 is second to last.).

Also, like Manu, he often seems unsure in defence. It's that crucial, split-second stuff - do I dive for the ball? Kick it out? Tap it out? - one of the tries showed this perfectly.

He probably could've dived for the ball and, if anything, got in the try-scorer's way, but he went to kick it dead and failed to even follow through with a kick at all. I would've forgiven him an air-swing but shaping to kick and then not attempting one? No.

Its inexperience and the pressure at that level. Experience results in more decisive reactions as we know. Good fullbacks would commit their body even when a collision is on course. Halves (which he is) just dont get that physical part of being a fullback overnight and hes having to learn that in the NRL not grass roots or age grade. Just not a fullback.
