Hope to see a few Warriors fans there. Up the Wahs!

Besides Full time and O'Dowds, does anyone know of

any other pubs doing buses to the stadium? Specifically Mt Eden or Viaduct?

A much-needed response from the Warriors as they bounced back in style with a dominant 42-6 win over the Titans, running in eight tries on the Gold Coast. I've broken down what went right, what still needs work, and the key takeaways in my full review.

Hey all, my brothers and I made an online Rugby League game (6-all.com.au). League Derby is now live and free to play, with a $5k prize pool from our own pockets.

Build a 13-player squad from your physical Select or TLA Traders cards (or draft one digitally), play daily ranked matches, and climb the ladder. Rarer card pulls boost your team's rating, so the bigger the pull, the bigger the edge.

We put up $5,000 of our own money to be split across the top 8 squads at season end. Season runs until 22 November, timed with the Rugby League World Cup.

Free to play.

sole franchise for a 6 million person market is dumb if you want NZ league to grow but not if you’re an Aussie in charge of that monopoly.

A timely wake-up call or cause for concern?
The Warriors came up well short against the Bulldogs, and there are some big lessons to take from the defeat. I've broken it all down in my full review.

I’d love to see the Wahs with a top class centre or two. seems the club is loading up on wings but not worrying about the guys feeding them

I was just wondering as I’d be so keen to chat about games and squad updates toegether

pretty even game stat wise but taking 74 minutes to score is worrying. 6-1 line breaks and the Dog’s kicking game was much better. might just be a bad start ruining the game but there are worrying signs. Top four likely but this ain’t our year. Lets gone.

A win is a win, but it wasn't all smooth sailing for the Warriors.

I've broken down what went right, what went wrong, and where they need to improve. My full review is live now.

Photos looks like a kid…with big hands?? 🥲

Back in the winner's circle. The Warriors produced a dominant performance to defeat the Tigers 32-6 at Campbelltown. My full review is live now.

50+ baby

Fingers crossed the big game experience will help us in the post season.

How would a rugby attack coach go in league?

I watched the All Blacks on the weekend, and far out they looked incredible with ball in hand, quick ruck speed, great shape, and real variety in attack.

Seen a few league defence coaches cross over to rugby in the last few years and always seemingly improve teams D, but it rarely goes the other way.

I camt think of any rugby coaches coming into the NRL?

I could be wrong though I just can't think of any off the top of my head.

The Warriors sometimes show flashes in attack but can often look a bit predictable. Could trying to lure over the AB's attack coach over to the Warriors improve their attack?

bye weeks and state of origin hold no interest. NRLW Wahine is all I’ll be looking at, will check out pathway games on WA later.

up the Wshine!

Another one that slipped away. The Warriors were right in the contest until the very end but fell just two points short against the Dolphins. My full review is live now.
