Man, the main thing that really seal the deal for me was just the brilliant defence from the left edge of Montonya and Pompey. After what has been the weakest link in the warriors defence throughout the couple last rounds and witnessing the turn up of these two when it matters most (the trust between the two in defence was phenomenal) against a strong opposition that utilizes very strongly in offence from Ponga and Young, give them space and they easily become too dangerous. Witnessing these two shutting these two catalyst down throughout the whole 80 mins was what did it for me. Take a bow for their performance today. Great effort from the knights, and humble from Ponga after the interview. Just unfortunate it was the Warriors (k)night today. UP THE WAHS!

The Great Darren Lockyer said it, I don't think Newcastle is gonna win this one they are starting to fade, warriors will win this comfortably, well there you go WAHS too good👍👍👍

Easily the best season SJ has had. Been consistent every week running the team. Highlighted even more today with his still dodgey hamstring. Kicked well made all the right passes. Huge hurdle next week but looking good for a chance.

Never thought I'd see Johnston back in form, let alone a contender for Dally M. Webster gives the orders and Johnston executes it to a tee. Even their kicking game, not once did they kick to Young's wing the whole game. He orchestrates the game plan to perfection and has such great vision, positioning and passes this season.

This game literally had me in tears standing up and waving my flag, one of my best nights! UP THE WAHS!

That was a complete performance from the Wah's, and illustrated the influence their top nucleus of players have in directing the team's attack, compared to last week's thumping by the in form Panthers where the nucleus of play makers were absent. A lot of people expected the Knights to knock 'em out this week, but they showed real conviction. I needed this after last week's thumping.

New Zealand needs a second team. Between that and a PNG team, the NRL needs to be divided into two conferences: North and South. The PNG and Warriors clubs and half of the Sydney clubs should be in the North conference, and the other half of Sydney clubs and the second NZ club should be in the South conference.
