    @paekakboyz said in NRL 2018:

    I'm hoping that Blair thinks this tough guy approach is needed as we get momentum moving in 2018. We've already seen evidence that we can mix it up, so pursuing the niggle isn't a strategy we need to adopt. I guess the coaches would consider there is a time and place for it - but we need to shake our rep as a team that gives away easy penalties. Combined with our shithouse defense last year that stuck the knife in us over and over (and over and over etc).

    I think we may have finally tipped the balance with enough focused and talented new guys (new this year or last) to really smash that shitty culture we showing. Match that up with a squad that is clearly fit and watch out!!

    holy shit. One game in and you're swallowing the lure hard out! I am reserving judgement until 3 games after Origin

    @mariner4life ha ha fuck I don't have time to hold off on judgement (best delivered on little info and far too hastily :-)) till that deep in the season. The only concession the warriors have won from me is that I'll watch the next game live, rather than rec and delete, or fast forward viewing.

    The mere fact they are fit and apparently engaged is enough for me.

    Fish on!!

      @paekakboyz fair enough. I'll take two points any day of the week. I'm tempered by the fact the Bunnies are shit. And we still gave up dumb penalties at dumb times. And that flat fast track suited us.

                    Just can't get excited about a team that contains the names Kata & Maumalo

                      But... if we are only down to two poor selections that's a win imo! When is the greased up deaf guy back? Should push Kata out hopefully.

                          It's nice to see Cronulla, and their grub collection, go 0-2 to start the year. Flanagan is such a fuckstain.

                            @sneakdefreak Blake Green was excellent, allowed Shaun to do his fancy stuff. Hopefully he can stay fit

                              Watching the NSW Prem warriors and they are rubbish. Lazy, inaccurate and poorly disciplined. The Bulldogs their playing aren't much chop either but they good enough to hammer the Warriors. CNK should has not gone looking for work which you'd think he'd be doing to get back into the top squad. Albert Vete looks average as fuck.

                                One of the NZ comms just suggested the bulldogs have "stolen the win". It's 8-30.

                                  Chad Tavaga throws back to back lazy forward passes and has a nut at everyone else.

                                    Hoping the mediocrity at the warriors stays in the lower grades.

                                      I don't know if we'll win or lose, but so far the Warriors are looking more like the glory years Warriors than last year. Lots of ball movement, good running. Just as I write this we lose the ball early in the tackle count in the shadow of the titans' posts, they come back, and we go length of the field only to fall short ,that's the Warriors!

                                        Two brilliant tries for the Warriors, 12-0 😊

                                          Titans starting to look tired , if the warriors can execute, they should put on a decent score
