    @Godder Benji, Josh Reynolds and Luke Brooks to battle it out for the halves positions.

    Score starting to blow out in the Warriors/Raiders game (as expected) although the baby Warriors have been making a go of it.

    Raiders win 36-16.

    Some thoughts:

    • Turns out the new owner is some bloke called Paul Davys. I know very little about him but will be interesting to see how this unfolds i.e will Davys business partner Peter Brown be involved, who is also the agent for Shaun Johnson.
    • Ata Hingano was the best player in this loss, was always trying to make something out of nothing and defending well.
    • But I don't think Hingano works well with SJ as they are similar players.
    • Nathaniel Roache also played well - I feel Luke is on the outer. Monty Betham said pre-match how it was Luke's training/preparation that saw him relegated to the bench.
    • Raiders are massive. Steroids are an amazing thing.

    Match of the round, Tigers come from two tries behind to beat Manly.

    @canefan Oh sheet, I know this guy!

    He was head coach of Te Atatu Roosters back around 2011 but ended up having a falling out with the chairman and the club lost several of its players (mainly to Glenora).

    All of a sudden I'm not that confident in this new ownership.

    4 more years? 😞

    @canefan I'd wait four more years if it meant the Warriors subsequently went back to back. I'd even jump on the band wagon then.

    How could anyone come to the conclusion that's not deliberate?

    Fuck league commentators are dumb.

    So, the Gold Coast Titans are giving the Warriors a run in the "worst way to run a club" standings. First, have good young team over-achieving and making finals; next buy expensive over-rated player with known attitude and motivation issues; sell some of the previously mentioned young players to pay for expensive "star"; have said "star" then predictably play like shit, put in no effort, and fall out with the coach; next sack coach despite him getting on with every other player, and leading them to unexpected finals last year because "it costs 3 times less than sacking the star".

    Jarryd Hayne is really racking up the numbers in the "coaches i have got sacked" column

    Paul Kent is a weasel. Last week he's giving Hayne shit for not trying, today he's writing a column that he does try, but it's Henry's fault he can't coach him, and his body can't handle any workload.

    Also Matthew Elliot has come out and said the Warriors make good players worse, and the whole organisation is fucked. Wow Matt, startling insight

    @mariner4life I don't watch much league...just saw it pop up on my FB feed.

    Just surprised we don't see more knees or feet to heads (obviously accidental ones, not deliberate like this one)

    I listened to the interview with Matt on my way home yesterday, I thought it was pretty good, but nothing really new in there.

    Worriers up 12-18 with 25 to go. Waiting for the inevitable self destruction, the only saving grace might be that it is the Rabbits they're playing....

    Hold the phone....
    right on cue, Bunnies score.

    18 all 23 minutes left.
