Was it really a forward pass ?

Absolutely it was. But let’s not kid ourselves, it wasn’t the worst and it won’t be the last. Broncos v Dogs there was a terrible one that was let go, but Flanno duffed the try in the end.

Makes me laugh seeing Sticky have such a whinge at the post match. He must be such an ignorant prick not to see that the Warriors have criminal calls against them almost every week, but poor him when one goes against him. Very precious

Yeah.. nah

rightly Stuart doesn’t give a shit about us and they’ve had their share of shit calls too

He’s proud of his lot, rightly and dirty they didn’t hang on... we should be concerned that we only just got there imo

f**k him, he put us down when he didn't need to.

"There's 2 change rooms and I know which one I'd rather be in."

There's no need to bring us even into it. Praise your boys if you want to but don't imply thst there's something wrong with our side of the fence. Let's not pretend that the Raiders were the only ones thst had calls against them. Swings and roundabouts.

We had 2 options today at 20 points down. Let it get to 40 or fight back. I'm glad we chose the fight back option for a change.

He's a sook. Just a complete and utter baby. Had a go at us last year saying we weren't hard done by playing in Australia too.

I'm stoked with the win, makes up for last week. Great to show resilience to fight back and show we have points in us too. O'Sullivan must have added something?

Nice to see another team cursing their bad luck for a change. We've had the biggest shares in that feeling for a long long time in this comp.

Yep agreed, but I’m ok with what he said, if our coach said similar I’d agree

two game affected by injuries... hope it’s not a pattern

Let's get real.
It was a great fight back, but with a fully fit squad for 80 minutes they would have slaughtered us.
They are a top eight side and it showed the huge gulf between a top side and us.
Hope we learn from the game.

The biggest thing for me is that we actually backed up the offloading players. Roger and Kodi more so, and we looked great. We need to keep doing this.

Nikorima needs to keep running, jeeze he looks good when the other team is on the back foot, really dangerous runner.

I thought Kodi looked less inhibited, I’m not sure if it was because OSullivan was able to take more control as a half, but we definitely want Kodi free to roam and pick and chose his moments, as opposed to having to manage the game as well

You're right, but I was completely expecting us to roll over and die after they'd run that 70m try in the second half and taken that big lead. If it was last year I didn't see us having the spirit to come back from that.

At this point I'll celeberate us having heart, top eight is a long way away.

By some way.
I dont think its clearcut. when you look at the lines on the field, that ball could easily have come backward out of the hand and floated forward because BMM was quite a way back when the pass was thrown. If he had been right next to him, you wouldnt have spotted it. Hes only stretching forward because he had ground to make up because the ball was thrown flat and not at him. Thats my take. Ive seen a lot worse.

edit. could just about make Warren Smiths comment when the try was awarded my ringtone, the joy it brings. "WHATS GOING ON????" <cackles>

Hes a prick of the highest order. Right after the game when hes summarising, he says " The Warriors have beaten the Raiders, yes The Warriors" in the most condescending manner possible. Prick.

I actually dont think the BMM try was forward...the fact he had to reach for it made it look worse than it was but that just means it was in front of him based on where he in relation to the play and not a clear indication Kodi passed it forward.
You had the Ref and linesman in line with the pass so at worst i reckon it was line ball.
I also thought that last pass to Rapana in the dying minutes was probably forward so very happy with the RTS save as i think we would have copped that bad call otherwise and that would have been very hard to swallow.

As Brown said in the press conference there will always be 50/50 calls and as long as you get your share then i suppose you have to wear that from time to time.....i know we have copped some shockers over the years.

The problem with Ricky is he wants all the 50/50 calls and never says a peep when they cop all the good ones. He's a sook of the highest order.

I'm in 2 minds about Ricky.

TBH, we've been on the receiving end of the refs plenty and that sort of defiant, indignant performance from a coach at the presser is what I was hoping for from our's.

On the other hand, cry me a river Stick.

2008 World Cup Final. Ricky Stewart toy throwing. Not much has changed.

His man child passion and saltiness are quite enjoyable.
