Warriors

How bout those Warroiors on Fri nite! 54-14 over the panthers. Getting back to where we want to be.

Im so stoked that Tony Martin, Todd Byrne and Gatis have been cut for 2008. Bring thru some talented local boys! The next sonny bill or benji Marshall is out there on our door step

Martin's off because we've signed Brent Tate and Gatis will be replaced by Ian Henderson (an Aussie with Scottish connections), who we're signing from Bradford. So, letting Gatis and Martin go isn't exactly going to open doors for local talent.

Yep granted, however they have signed up 3 local boys (17, 18 and 19 i think), was reading on stuff

We've got a few good young 'uns coming through, but I reckon it'll be a while before they make the 1st grade team. I usually go to the games early and watch the Auckland Lions, which is basically the Warriors reserves,  games and there's some decent young players in there

Don't know if our halves can cut the mustard... Wiki's on his last legs aswell, it lucky that we've got Steve Price doing what he does best or else we'd be up the creek wiithout a paddle!!!!!

warriors will just miss the 8 again im afraid..... can only blame themselves this year tho!

I don't get why they felt it necessary to sign a centre in Tate. Of all the postions, centres don't make or break a teams performance on the field. In saying that if Tate brings some of the insperational flair of the likes of McKinnon or Price then it can only help.

You seen a guy by the name of Kevin Locke play for the Lions? He's my mate.

Well Im sure Matt Rogers was licking his lips when he found out TODD BURNE was going to be marking him. Id much rather see Tate in at centre (or a local boy comin thru) than Tony Martin or Todd Burne. What do they bring apart from Martin being able to kick goals? Do u ever even notice him on the field? He does nothing! Thank god they released them for next season.

I hate the warriors, want to know why?

Poor bastard.

Yep. :(

Tate looks stuffed with knee ligaments.  Probably out for 5 months or more.  Recontruction time, may never play again - medical prognosis awaited.

Whatever 'the Warriors' are the best, Swan is the man. (Movie character not Logan, hes an average player). Classic Movie "Can you Count, Suckaaaasss"

Warriors carving up ATM. 32-16

Good win in the end, much needed boost to our points differential aswell.

picks for tigers game this sunday vs Wests Tigers at Campbelltown??

Warriors to cause an upset for mine and move into 6th position: 22-16

great result vs the dragons last weekend.

Warriors points diff is somewhere like 4th best in the NRL

warriors 28-16 tigers, man of the match-paul simpkins for his outstanding display sending wade off, he should have sent himself off, useless Pitbull2007-07-23 12:57:48

Nice of them to schedule the match to allow us to watch it at the backbencher following the demolition at the Ring of Fire.

Yes, was timed quite nicely.

I rekon the Warriors will kill Newcastle this weekend at home. lets keep workin our way up the table!

Simpkins is an absolute muppet. It was obvious that he was annoyed at Wade for some of the verbal exchanges going on during the game, and just needed some sort of ridiculous reason such as a "knee" to send him off. Simpkins needs to be suspended for a couple weeks

Yeah I think you're right. I've noticed that Wade gets under the refs skin quite often during games. He must have a habit of back chatting. I think his reputation has put him on the wrong side of the officials and Simpkins wanted the last laugh.

I f**king hate Shane Hayne!!! CMON U WARRIORS TOP 4 HERE WE COME!!!

Again Shayne Hayne robs the Warriors. Blatant penalty to win the game turned down by Hayne who had already done his best to win the Roosters the game by sin binning Mannering for nothing!

The NRL really ought not to allocate Warriors games to this ref.

Still a great display by the team 31-31 away.

I'm not sure why they let this muppet keep refereeing League matches. It is pretty clear to most people he is as useless as tits on a bull.

Great game by both sides but, as has already been said, Hayne is an absolute d**head.
The Mannering sin-binning, not giving us a penalty in extra-time when the whole Roosters team were miles offside, saying Price lost the ball when it was clearly punched out of his his hands, it was just one dodgy decision (or non-decision) after another. The man's an idiot, always has been, and shouldn't even be allowed to referee kids games. 

I saw todays game

When Anasta made it 31-30 i almost died i sat their at my mates head in hands then we pushed up the field on the last set of normal time and Witt kicked that field goal that's when i knew this team had what it takes to be genuine title contenders for the first time since 02. I believe we can go all the way whether we do or not is a whole other story.

The referee was hopeless

best game of rugby league this season without doubt...

the game had everything, and that is why we love this game of rugby league. just makes rugby look soooo boring

will be booking my ticket to a home final hopefully

YES LEAGUE IS MUCH MORE EXCITING THAN WATCHING HOPELESS NZ CUP MATCHES       Who wants to watch Southland or Tasman being mauled by Canterbury and Auckland?

Most NRL games are fast and very watchable.

Really good game, but the refereeing took some of the gloss off the performance. Still draw was a fair result (but when has fair had to do with anything). Warriors been exciting this season, lots of long range tries.

Seems the Warriors play awesome in the last 20mins of first half, happening a lot lately.

Good game - dodgy ref

Nope but still bloody exciting it's like the Warriors of old have returned this season and it's brilliant to watch.

If you can resist putting a remote through the TV as the Aus refs screw them time and time again.

Yeah it's pretty bloody hard most of the time especially as they receive awful decisions game after game.

Funny how people say a draw was a fair result - I thought we deserved to win as we had 12 on 14 there at one point. 

Just seen it on youtube.  Unreal.  Great chance this season.  Would love to see them do it.   But surely they have to make the top 4 if they want to win it.  In fact, from memory, no one's won outside the top 4.  Too bloody difficult.
