Love to know what everyone’s favourite games of the year were.
For me:
1. Shark Park Comeback
Absolute roller coaster of emotions. hard to put into words but I was in absolute disbelief by the end and was well on my way to being convinced that we are a different beast this year.
2. Invading the Raiders
Second half was pure perfection and execution of which the likes I haven’t seen from any team this year. Warriors absorbing all that early pressure at their home ground on such a big occasion and then just absolutely blowing them out of the water like that was so satisfying.
3. Shark Massacre at Mt Smart
A complete outing with a breakout performance from Luke Metcalf and utter domination by the team in every key metric. As much as I had been loving the close games this one was my first real taste of what this team could do on their day against a good opposition when it clicked.
4. Knights Slayed in Finals
Biggest game of the decade and if it wasn’t for the anxiety I would have ranked this higher. Coming off a heavy loss against the panthers I knew we couldn’t do this without SJ. Will he be fit? will he get through the game? What if we lose in straight sets? The knights have won 11/11 and the hottest team in the NRL, Ponga in form. There was just so much to fucking worry about. But ultimately that was all put to ease from the opening 15 mins and I sat back enjoyed a masterclass from SJ but also dreaded every minute he stepped or shimmied.
5. Anzac Day warning shot
I know we lost, but I count this game as a win. We had so much go against us and past history has never been more cruel to the warriors than on Anzac day against the Storm. The scars are deeper for the fans than the players because they came out firing and if it wasn’t for some curled injuries and awful officiating we would have had our first win in Melbourne for as long as I can remember. This game gave me the confidence that we”ll be back and we”ll fuck up this cunts next year.
Some notable mentioned include
SJ winning field goal against raiders and our commanding win over the Eels at their home ground.
