Warriors v Cowboys *live updates*

[Christmas Ape]

Getting the NSW job was the worst thing that could have happened to Murray and the Cowboys.

As for O'Donnell, once a thug always a thug. Good on Badger for sending him I reckon.

 

[Eelectrica]

Fair enough send off decision on Odonnell. First the high tackle, then followed it up with a forearm shot to the head. His season has mercifully ended a few weeks earlier than the rest of his team mates.

Whatever happened to that unbeaten season the Cowboys were going to have?

 

[Blaze]

Agree with the sending off. Intentional elbow to the face. If that isn't a send off then what is? Good to see Badger (who generally had a hopeless game) actually step up and send him off. In recent times we have seen refs just put nasty incidents on report when the player involved deserved an early shower, but now we are starting to see the send off come back.

A sin bin at the most but a send off :shock:

Definite send off.

Dog act.

Agree with your comments on Badger.

How many knock ons, forward passes did he miss? And he seemed to allow both sides much much time in the ruck. There was a ruck where Justin Smith made a tackle on Price, then went and grappled him, and then laid in for a few seconds, and he only made the decision after he laid in. It was a penalty for the dog grapple.

The Warriors would be 7th if their stupid management didnt breach the cap.

 

[Esoj]

if previous management hadn't breached the cap.

No, because they wouldn't have Price or Wiki...take either of them out of Warriors and they're a different side.

 

[Mr Saab]

Maybe. Wiki might still have gone there.

they still may have come over for slightly less. but we shall never know. the fact is that both price and wiki are at the warriors now and nothing can be done now to change that.

 

[Dr Crane]

Great performance. We got the benefit of the 50/50s for certain.

If it was 18-18 O'Donnell wouldn't have been sent.

Yawn.

Aren't we in August already now?

I don't agree with that.

The Cowboys were very blatantly slowing the ruck down, tackle in, tackle out. You could see the frustration building in Price in particular.

Also there were 3-4 pretty ordinary forward passes missed from the Cowboys.

Definitely though they missed a clanger on Webby knocking on before Rapira's try.

No doubt about them slowing it down.

There were a few random decisions that went our way, the Webb knock on, Gatis' kick out on the full - if that was in the field of play at all i need my eyes checked.

 

[Ari Gold]

Do the warriors have ANY chance of making the final 8?? Their points diff. is better than all the teams on the middle of the table.

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Warriors played very solidly, while the Cowboys ineptitude was only matched by the referee's.

 

[Sea_Eagles_Rock]

Are the Cowboys the Knights of the future? They were poor before Thurston got injured, but they are completely inept now without him.

 

[aussies1st]

Next year they probably will be alright as they got Smith over.

 

[Agent Mulder]

Cowboys wil miss the 8.

Possible, but a huge string of results would have to go their way.

Plus a win over the Storm in Melbourne.
