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.

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!

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!

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.

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.

Fuck yeah! In spite of some dumb stuff and some rough calls. Can see some mean combos emerging too - harris/hiku/fusitua with SJ down the right is money time.

Paekakboyz

Also - loved the 'let's not get carried away' call by SJ in the Finch interview. Good lad

Bovidae

I didn't see any of the game but the Raiders seem to find ways to lose late.

Oh to be in the Raiders' dressing room after the spray from Stuart.
