    And the Dolphins get the first up win - over the Roosters!

    Can I just say, yet again, what a piece of shit streamer Kayo is! Every minute or so it just skips back a few seconds. I mentioned this to them at leat 2 years ago and it's still happening now.

      Dolphins old heads can't keep that up, but watch out if you play them early..jeez Kaufusi winding back the clock with massive hits

      Roosters looked very rusty, although Keary a great halfback, I don't know if he fits within that backline, both halves just look to get in the way of each other

        Yep, speaking of Stan I've just finished watching the Dolphins doco series first episode on Stan. Has been pretty good aside from the long intro and typical league "greatest sport on earth" B/S at the start.

        Oddly they identified Isaako as "Samoan Representative" and not NZ rep - he's played one game for Samoa.

        Bennett loves Jesse Bromwich. After seeing this episode Jesse might go into cruise mode as Bennett said he's fine if he only gets 20 mins out of him.

          hindsight and all that but, we should have seen this coming. No one gets a group up for a one-off like Wayne. They were fucking hyped up. The Roosters were not.

            Even though I can’t stand either side, that Eels v Sharks game was damn good. The way the Eels moved the ball wide was excellent.

            Just caught up on the Broncos/Cowboys game, how quick is that Broncos 5/8! Reece Walsh had pretty good game too. Ran well and showed some nice touches

              Warriors are a tough watch, clearly more resilient in defence, but attacking accuracy of a reserve grade team. Not helped by losing two players to HIA on a very hot day, just not enough in our squad to execute attacking plays consistently. A game unbelievably we could have won, ..but lose to the better team by 20-12

                15 minutes in I knew we had no chance of winning. TMM tackled after kicking and the refs did nothing despite the fact it's been a key tenet of the game to protect kickers for at least 5 years. Then multiple repeat sets to the Roosters for ruck/inside the 10 infringements - Warriors weren't getting the same in their favour.

                Ah well, that's my annual Warriors game done, managed to not have a heart attack but will avoid blood pressure tests for a few days.

                Allianz redevelopment is pretty good. Ticket and concession prices reflect the dev cost though.

                @bayimports The couple of passes sideways and then Curran straightening as the only left hand side attack move was doing my head in.

                  it looked like they were just trying to soften up Walker, i thought this was also funny though as Curran isn't the largest body to do that. I think I was annoyed by multiple average bombs without anyone challenging or kick being good enough to allow a challenge... and then the unforced drop balls on attack

                  still i could imagine in recent years this game would have been 30-0, so some improvement

                    The defence on the line late in the first half was great.

                      The sad thing is you’re 100% right. The Warriors being fucked over by refs is one of the few certainties in life, right alongside taxes and death.

                        Great game last night between Manly and the Eels, Turbo looking better each week. Eels could effectively be 0-5 with their draw and still make the finals. They have looked good each week so far which is more than I can say for the likes of the normal bottom half of the table.

                        Warriors playing the Cowboys this week, both teams debuting rookie fullbacks. Taine Tuaupiki for the warriors was one of the star players in the lower grade last week.

                        Don't expect them to win this week losing both CNK and Ford to HIA from last week, but looking to see the effort repeated. SJ needs to step up all out.

                            Yep. Agreed. But I don't like the regular cheap shots from South's. All the talent in the world but not the discipline. Chee Kam looked like he tried to eye gouge Manu. Will be interesting to see what happens via judiciary.

                                  and in strange news the warriors lead at halftime over the cowboys 16-12.. no way the win this..

                                  but some promising moments just need to keep capitalising on opposition errors.

                                    Strong second half as well from Warriors
                                    Sj straightened the line a few times and allowed to skip
                                    Barnett and TMM and even Walker best of new recruits..
                                    Egan again strong when he wasn't HIA (x2)
                                    We have the worst centres in the NRL who try find a way to lose the game..but

                                    the warriors have done the unthinkable and beaten the Cowboys in North Qld, well done Warriors, bloody awesome effort
