    RL, the only sport where you can deliberately knock the ball forward to end the game. 🙄

    A good game to miss.

          Well the Warriors turned to shit as the game went on - but this is another to add to the plus column of the Warriors getting shit treatment from the refs.

          Egan is so shit, he reminds me of when we had Townsend who barely looked like a decent high school player when playing for us and then went and won a premiership, so Egan's next club should be happy. He's just so slow, his passes are slow, when he runs he looks like a Nana.

          I didn't mind the jersey. It's not even in the same ballpark as the Central Vikings jersey for the team that didn't exist.

            Ref is a fluffybunny. Should have had a penalty for marker not square

            Even Oz comms are calling the ref out.

            Was surprised at this.

            Saw a couple I would have thunked were penalties not given.

              Warriors apparently received ZERO penalties from the on field refs

                    They're trained to knock it dead so hard to think otherwise.

                        All stemmed from RTSs unlikely mistake. In truth they were barely hanging on

                              I really don't know what to make of the Warriors.

                              Not sure whether to be disappointed or pleased they lost.

                              Am sad as they're the only league team I have any thought about aside from the Kiwis.

                              But part of me likes them suffering because of the Mick Watson years and continued years of less than adequacy but they'll be the biggest BRRAAAANND in New Zealand and the whole league is better than rugby bullshit and this is our year but then I want them to win ...

                              Overall am disappointed with the result.

                                          Warriors were great for the first 10 mins...then turned off the oven and wandered outside for a sneaky ciggie the entire rest of the game. I would blame the bush shirt, but they can be dross in pretty much any strip. It would be much easier if they didn't show those occasional flashes of brilliance, because when they suck they REALLY suck.
