Warriors leading 14-0 against a Penrith team that wasn't great in the first half. In fact they sucked.
But this is the mighty Warriors and it is now the second half....

I’ve tipped the Panthers, so don’t panic the Warriors have got this....

That should be a penalty try. If the offside Panthers players doesn't grab that the Warriors score.

Do you mean that literally or are they just very rare? Was surprised the Warriors didn't really make a fuss. I haven't watched a lot of league the last few (10) years though

Bloody rare, but not as rare as Cameron Smith being penalised.

@Donsteppa yea stupid stuff from Lawton, but they’d down well defending considering that was the Panthers 4th set on the trot attacking the Warriors line.
Paasi barges his way over, impressive stuff.

@Gunner wasn't it RTS?

You talking about the penalty or the try?
Definitely Lawton for penalty and Paasi the try, well the ones I was talking about anyway
@Gunner ah, I must have caught the wrong guy. Thought it was really unlike RTS to do something like that on the last tackle after a repeat set!

We won
Sneakers boyfriend is the worst coach
Happy days

Warriors get the win against a Penrith Panthers side that did everything to lose. Penrith made such bad errors it was actually spectacular to watch.
Positives:
-
The Warriors forwards did their job tonight, smashing everything wearing an opposition jersey, something they haven't done much of this season. Paasi (what a run!), Burr, Harris, Papali'i, Sao were standout performers and Adam Blair will be not playing that many games this season (he'll still crack 300 games at some point).
-
Issac Luke responded well after being dropped for poor form while Kodi Nikorima is fitting in with the team. Both made dummyhalf darts which led to the first two tries for the Warriors, breaking any confidence the Panthers had. Nikorima's try in the second half was a beauty, leaving several Panthers in his wake, but don't get so fucking close to the deadball line!
-
The Luke/Lawton hooker combo is something the Warriors need to rely on this season. Luke still has game but it's obvious he is no longer an 80 minute player while Lawton is evolving into the Warriors starting hooker for 2020.
Negatives:
- Herbert/Hiku is our best centre combo for 2019 but Hiku went down with a upper body injury (head knock?) in the second half. That's a negative because Hiku has been in good form but it also means Kearney could go back to this guy:
Pick Adam Keighran or Taane Milne instead if Hiku is out.
- Penrith had errors which were Benny Hill-esque. Poor passes either going over the head of team-mates or to a Warrior instead, several muck ups in the play the ball and this:
-
The boy the Panthers have as their fullback will never be a star because he has that look after a mistake which suggests he's shitting himself. Better to go with Dallin Watene-Zelezniak just so he doesn't run into teammates.
-
I listened to the Matty Johns podcast and they gave great insight into the Panthers especially with James Maloney and how he wears out his welcome. Maloney was trying to gee up his men but they didn't seem to be listening. Maybe he should bugger off to Superleague.

No Blair, no Kata.. amazing we can win without those ‘quality’ players..
