Bye: Bulldogs

[LimeGreenMachine]

Charnze crosses over for the 1st try in his 100th game

[LimeGreenMachine]

AFB scores Warriors 2nd try
12 nil 8min gone

[BJ]

Shaun Johnson really has developed his passing game since returning to the Warriors.

He always had the occasional magic pass but he now consistently creates space for his players with his step, straighten and perfectly timed pass.

[Rick]

What’s happened to the Warriors?

They looked like they were just scoring whenever they wanted to in the opening to the game now they will go into HT behind.

Probably like me. They fell asleep

19 - 12 Titan lead at halftime

A classic Raider's-type fade. Get cocky scoring at ease early, put the cue in the rack with about 60mins to go, and get their pants pulled down.

[Northern Raider]

Warriors totally clocked off. That early lead came too easy for them. Titans got some possession and Warriors weren't ready for it.

[LimeGreenMachine]

Titans score 1st try in the 2nd half

23-12 Titans

[Finchy]

It's amazing how even after halftime (similar to our last Sharks game) the Warriors still can't switch their attitude. Titans waltz in again straight after halftime. It seems that once the complacency has set in you can't switch it off no matter how many tries the opposition starts running in.

[LimeGreenMachine]

Titans in for another try. AJ Brimson.
27-12 Titans

[LimeGreenMachine]

Warriors hit back with a 2nd try to AFB.

27-18 Titans

[LimeGreenMachine]

Here come the Warriors

Try to Berry

27-24. Titans

[LimeGreenMachine]

Titans win

Don't know how they survived

27-24 Titans

[BJ]

Good game that one

[President Clinton]

That has to be one of the best wins in the Titan’s history.

0-6 over in Auckland, down 12-0 early on ANZAC Day.

I think the loss of Metcalf is very understated.

[-PJ-]

Great D by Tits.

Wahs threw everything at them.

Nice win..

[reptar]

Suli lasts 13 seconds. That is not pretty.

[reptar]

If that survives the video ref review - that’s a very entertaining try by the Dragons.

[Dusty]

The kick off will die. It's not safe.

All the dinosaurs say they just need to tackle low. However... that might've worked when Blocker Roach or Glenn Lazarus trundled back in the good ole days. Today all props have footwork, a bit of late footwork on a player going low and the get their head in the way if knees, hips and their own players too.

I don't like it but i fear itll
disappear.

There is a stat , something like its 3% of concussions.

If you stop the kick-off then you need to stop other areas that cause concussion.

[LimeGreenMachine]

Roosters have hit 60.

Lead 60 to 18. 2min to go

There’s no difference between a prop off the back fence AND a fullback/winger returning a downtown kick.

A 10m hit up or a 30m charge from the ingoal..it’s all the same result.

Players tackle zone is very small, let’s say from the nipples up..it’s trained into them.

It’s all about limiting the offloads.

[greeneyed]

The ANZAC ceremony in Melbourne really is outstanding. It’d be nice if Canberra could host the 2pm match next year.

[LimeGreenMachine]

Storm have the ball on a string .
The ball bouncing perfectly for them. Coates with a hattrick.

26-4 Storm.

[President Clinton]

Needless to say, Wighton’s decision to leave the Raiders for a premiership is going dreadfully.

[NoMan]

Yeah, looks like a 3 or 4 year rebuild as well. Might be a few lean years for Jack to finish his career.

[LimeGreenMachine]

32-4 Storm halftime
