Wahs threw it away and their for and against will ultimately have their final say. Can see Manly turning it on in their last game, Turbo looks fit which is a worry. We will need to score points, so will need to play differently than normal if we do get down by a few

I'm kind of hoping we're going to come out with an adjusted game plan for the finals, kind of like the 2015 ABs RWC campaign when they seemed terrible in the pools but it was by design.
Maybe we'll come out with a plan to actually score points regularly (that isn't just give to Leka).
A guy can dream can't he?

Im shocked the biggest pessimist on the topic of the Warriors is believing. Almost feels like we've swapped roles for this week lol
Leka ball wont work every time, my biggest hope is that we actually attack an attacking kick more often, so kick isnt as deep or kick chase has to get there faster and it cant just be Leka chasing. Even just that small change, probably gets us more points.
As much as I want some minor change, just cant see it

The Storm would be stupid to field a full strength side, as would a lot of the 8. I think the teams in the lower half of the 8 will be hoping Souths get up as they'd much rather play the Dolphins than Roosters come finals time.
Brisbane's win over the Cows showed why they won't win the comp. They leak tries and continue to clock out of games for large periods of time. They'll get punished by better sides.
Broncos are a different side when Reynolds plays as he organizes their defense well (not saying he defends well though lol) , he will be back week one of finals. Not suggesting they win playing one of the top three but I do give them a better chance when he plays.
You're correct on his defence as he's good at reading the back door plays and shoots up to block it, and even if he doesn't make the tackle, he stops the play in its tracks. He's got a good footy iq.
They just for me, clock off too often in games and it hasn't been fixed. They're lethal when they get it right, but teams in the finals won't be as forgiving. They have to be more than a 40 min side in the finals to go all the way and I do like to watch them play.

Rocco Berry diet

Warriors serving up some mad Monday shit right here… they have well and truly shit the bed

Somehow still in this but have no right to be. Healey looking ominous, Erin Clark solid, Charnze ok everyone else clocked off early after 9 secs..

Warriors season is done, doesn’t matter who we play next week, we won’t be winning.
We should be happy we made the top 8 I guess, but limping into the finals on the back of a few bad losses against bottom 8 teams has taken the wind right out of the sails.
If we’re serious about winning a few more games and moving up the ladder, we need a new right edge.
I’m a Rocco Berry fan, but he’s made of glass.
DWZ thanks for the great service, but time to sail off into the sunset. -

That was comedy gold, crap defensive play then injures himself by his own unco-ness.
Glad I had a meeting this afternoon which meant I couldn't get over to Brookvale in time for this match (I get a members seat from a mate for Warriors matches).

I fell asleep on the couch, have watched the last 15 minutes and we've been pretty energetic albeit with a lack of precision and creativity on attack. In true Wahs style it's all too little too late. Meanwhile the ref has gone YC crazy and binned Turbo and Jazz (deserved), DWZ might have touched down in the corner on the hooter and Boyd converts from the sideline. Wahs lose to a DCE left foot DG. Fark
-
Given we were gifted the fastest try ever at the start, the scoreline is probably flattering. Warriors have some good moments, but as always not the consistency.
Plus the defensive gift that is DWZ. Hard to think of many who've ever been so constantly hapless at positioning.
-
Jazz Tevaga did his best to get the Wahs over the line in the last 10. Gave away a forward pass that changed the momentum, fell asleep at marker for the Sam Healey try, then got binned at the end.
Possibly his best game for the Wahs.

Manly are an enigma. They patches of the prettiest football, and score a bunch of 40m tries.
And then for half an hour they will just suck.
Last night they brought us back in to it.The team is pretty average. There aren't many backs i would keep if we're serious. Some good forwards and i like the young dummy half.
Go find more young backs because ours are cooked.Penrith will flog us next week
