Two absolute standouts and a stack of duds in one of the Warriors’ worst-ever losses. 1 REECE WALSH: Firmly asserted his commitment to returning to NZ with the club for 2023 but I’m not sure the Warriors deserve him. Miles ahead… Read More ›

TWL RD 9: 12-MAN SHARKS HUMILIATE CLUELESS WARRIORS
Give me a 70-10 Anzac Day loss any day. The Warriors’ spineless – in more ways than one – 29-10 defeat to a Cronulla side that had a player sent off in the 16th minute and another sin-binned during the… Read More ›
TWL RD 8: WARRIORS PLAYER RATINGS
A hard one to sum up individually in such a sloppy-but-emotional win – but we’ve had a go anyway. 1 REECE WALSH: Some excellent clean-up plays at the back were the highlight with our livewire custodian struggling to impose himself on… Read More ›
TWL RD 8: SJ ICES BAFFLING, DEBUTANT-INSPIRED GOLDEN POINT WIN
The Warriors have won at least half of their first eight games for just the eighth time in their 28-season history. And half of their four 2022 victories must rank among their ugliest – possibly least-deserved – wins ever. But… Read More ›
TWL RD 7: WARRIORS PLAYER RATINGS
I know why you’re here… 1 REECE WALSH: Eight runs for 100 metres (second in the team) and looked dangerous as ever in the first half plus shouldered a heavy kicking load but was barely sighted after the break. Grubber… Read More ›

TWL RD 6: WARRIORS PLAYER RATINGS
Marks out of 10 for the Warriors’ controversial 22-14 loss to an officials-assisted Roosters outfit. 1 Reece Walsh: The Warriors’ most dangerous player and arguably their best on the day. Constantly pushing up on attack and went largely unrewarded –… Read More ›
TWL RD 5: WARRIORS PLAYER RATINGS
It’s hard to come down off the emotional high and give some honest assessments of a wild golden point win over the Cowboys, but I’ll give it a nudge. 1 REECE WALSH: Absolutely one of the heroes, with his best… Read More ›
TWL RD 5: JOHNSON ICES GOLDEN POINT ROLLERCOASTER
It only took the prodigal son 242 minutes. But before his ugly, spiralling golden point field goal snatched a 25-24 victory for the Warriors over North Queensland Cowboys in Redcliffe, it seemed as if it would be one of those… Read More ›
TWL RD 4: WARRIORS PLAYER RATINGS
Impressive across the board as the Warriors produced the equal-biggest winning margin and conceded the equal-least points of the Nathan Brown era. 1 REECE WALSH: Some sparkling moments – in particular, an outstanding try-assist, a key hand in another four-pointer and… Read More ›
