Lost their mojo huh? They are struggling against bottom teams which is concerning. The halves have been innocuous of late. Personally I’d have Dylan Walker starting. At the end of this game (I only saw the last 20) he was the only one who was decisive. When the Warriors had their great run in the middle of last year, when Walker was on, the points that were put on were off the charts. RTS is out of position and out of form. The attack of SJ has become too predictable. It seems the coach has not evolved the team, a bit too stubborn with what worked last year. You have to evolve and vary it up. I’d return Pompy at centre and drop Montoya. RTS an impact player who goes to 1. With RTS I’d be flexible but for now off the bench at 1.

Yeah hard to argue timing is off on attack too . Vulnerable on our edges can see it coming
Pilferer

True interesting to see how webster handles it we seem real predictable on attack

I’m sure doesn’t help at all, but Johnson and their attack isn’t as much the problem as simple errors and switching off…

Unfortunately starting to look like another team overly dependent on 1 player for attack

Just stirring you guys up. Ref was good . A few poor calls but even handed. . The Warriors don't have a Ref problem they have a tackling problem same as my team ,

They have been horrible lately unfortunately. The worst part is there isn’t an obvious issue to fix, like a key player being out or something. Quite perplexing.

Johnson not being able to train nursing archillies especially with the short turnarounds last couple of weeks. Add dwz poor defensive reads hurt

The was daft The Gold Coast have been improving but they still weren’t great. Concerning for the Warriors that they were worse

Good to see, for the Titans. So Warriors drew with Manly then lost to St George and Gold Coast. What's happened to them?
WithTheDawn

You have to stay down to get the right call. It sucks and I’d rather they didn’t have to. Certainly some teams don’t need to do that. Look at the kick TMM made later where Fifita runs into his leg. He ended up on report, but TMM didn’t stay down so no penalty. If we have to stay down to get the right calls then we should, otherwise it just puts us at a disadvantage to teams that get those calls in real time.

Johnson not being able to train during the week has our timing off just enough. Hopefully a longer turn around thus week will help

If only they had played the Storm instead of the mighty Gold Coast.

Good to see GC get their first win. I'll even give some praise to Big Davey for some good plays today. He is putting in effort at last. Hope he keeps it up.

To win in NZ is a very good effort. Congratulations Titans.

There was nothing in that, DWZ is becoming a real primadonna as he never was like that when he played in Sydney and didn't have long hair like a girl :laughing: he's just putting it on as he's done the same thing in another game and conned the refs in the same way, must be a DWZ thing
