You must have missed the year they were minor premiers and grand finalists then.

It seems that when they start to lose, tgey drop their nuts instead of getting stuck in with some hard graft. Pretty flip passes and goose steps somtimes dont fool anyone.

What a try that was. Reminds me the Warriors of old

The video ref is off his head. No way in the world did manu score that try legitimately. Full speed and slo mo from every angle showed that he knocked it forward. Nothing worse than being on the recieving end of one of those calls.

Warriors deserve calls to go their way after 20 years of bias against them.

Really I saw it as he knocking it back and then the Tigers playing it into his face? But then again I have had a few whiskeys

Yeah that call goes against us 9/10 in aus but that doesn't make it right. The video ref system is flawed if you can look at it ten times and still get it wrong.
That warriors right edge was sharp tonight though. Some good signs

Yep seems like the ref just may as well call it rather than waste 5mins checking upstairs every time a try is scored. 
It was a great game to be at tonight but damn it gets boring waiting for the video referee all the time, ruins the magic of a try somewhat.

No way Manu scored, he knocked the ball into the opposing player. Was shocked when it was given but I'll take it!

Really good win, went to the game expecting to be disappointed but the Warriors played really well. Johnson had his best game of the season & Konrad has to start, he causes so much mayhem in the other teams defence.

Konrad worked quite hard in defense too. Probably an area they've focused on improving, been an obvious weakness for awhile.

Konrad will probably cost you at least one try a game but he will set you up 2-3. Worth the risk imo.

I think Hurrell is great, should start every game.

Good game today and glad I went.

Manu's try hit his face and went forward, is that not allowed?

Hit his hand, onto the tigers players hand, then onto his head and went forward.

I thought it propelled backwards off Manu's hand then off the tigers guy then back off manu onto his face. so I thought it was alright, but I only saw it on the big screen though. was a good game to see live.

I don't think Manu hit it forward with his hand at any time.

He lost control of the ball in front of him. That has always been a knock on as long as the game has existed until technology came in. Now they use technology to find an excuse to give a try. Its wrong. Tries need to be clear cut rather than 'close enough'. What did Manu do to deserve a try there? Absolute gift. The video ref started out with all the right intentions but it's grown into something far from that. I prefer ref mistakes to how the video ref is used now.

How often are commentators baffled by video ref decisions? And not only them, it's everyone except the person pushing the button.

Still at least a Warriors who-do has been broken, now if only the Nix could make it 2/2.

The rules say a knock-on has to be with hands or arms so legitimate try for me.

Yep his left hand made contact with the ball when attempting to catch it.

J-Ro is having surgery for a broken jaw. Maybe his body just isn't built for league.

Yeah he needs to retire.

Hurrell much better in the Centers even though he can be a bit dodgy.

I think the game being in Wellington contributed to be fair.

Correct, having witnessed it in person, I am more likely to discuss. Winning well helps though...
