I know he butchered a try, but how good is Bunty running this season? Almost 120m's a game off the bench so far this season. Very impressive for a guy who is on the small side for playing up the middle.

I looked at the stats for last season and he didn't carry for 100m's even once last year(highest was 86m's). Not sure what he did, but his leg drive is something else this year.

Our goalline defense was fricken awesome. Swawming them and putting in the hits when required. That was the biggest positive for me.

RTS is pure class, he would carve up in either code.

Fun game and great to see a good crowd again at Mt Smart. SJ forming a good combo with Green already bodes well.

Agree on RTS, but gee he looked slow on that massive run up the middle after about 20 minutes, about 3 titans chasers all ran him down.

To be fair to RTS, he did lose a bit of speed when he beat the last defender. The fullback also slightly clipped him on that run too.

Broncos beat the Tigers 9-7 in OT after ref awards a dubious penalty to Brisbane....

[mariner4life]

They won a league game with nothing more than penalties and a field goal. That's astounding

[raznomore]

what a fucken snooze fest that game was. I fell asleep half way through the 2nd half. Should have watched the other game.

Adam Blair sin binned within seven minutes, what a surprise.

[Gunner]

Warriors up to their old tricks, giving away penalty after penalty after penalty, resulting in a visit to the naughty chair to Adam Blair.

Down 12-0 early.

Now is where we will see what the Warriors 2018 vintage is made of. Do they have enough in the top 2 inches to work their way out of the hole they’ve created?

As I type, Warriors score in their first visit to the Raiders end of the field.

[canefan]

Our right side attack with Hiku Harris and Fusitua is deadly. We score a try while Blair is on the naughty step

[Donsteppa]

@canefan yep, looked like we were the team with an extra man on attack.

[Gunner]

Warriors down by 7 with 8 to go.

They’ve had opportunities to close the gap but they are lacking composure.

[Gunner]

Luke over, down by 1 with 3 to go.

C’mon, time to play some Warriors ball

[Crazy Horse]

Wow!

[ACT Crusader]

Wooooooooohooooooooo

Remarkable.

I still think that if you get a PK in front when down by 7 with 5mins to go you take the 2 every time.

Found the will to win ,

Belief is a funny thing .

[Gunner]

Unreal.

8 to go I didn’t think they’d do it.

This side is not like Warriors of old, they’ve got some good old fashioned ticker this lot.

She’s not over till she’s over!

[ACT Crusader]

SJ looked really composed in that final 5-6 minutes.

[jegga]

Make room on the bandwagon please.

Go the mighty warriors, always been a fan.

[raznomore]

I saw some dumb stuff from us, some bullshit calls from the ref but mostly I saw a composed, but messy, 80 min performance where they waited for the openings. The ability to finish things off is what is going to make or break us against better attacking teams. We should have put 30 plus on GC and to be honest I think we were better than a 1 point win today. just keep dropping crucial opportunities.

Well played Harris, Luke, Afoa and in patches Hiku, Green and obviously Johnson towards the end.
