Warriors get another line dropout, their 2nd in succession. Great Storm defence.

Crossman is penalised for a high tackle and the Warriors opt for a goal and Hohaia gets them the points on offer. Storm 14-12 as the buzzer goes for halftime.

Halftime:

Storm 14 (Turner, Geyer, King tries; Smith goal)
Warriors 12 (Mannering, Vatuvei tries; Hohaia 2 goals)

Gee whiz ...

In a way, without sounding condescending to the Warriors, it was a loss we had to have ...

Bullshit, we had ample chances to win the game. If we HAD to have a loss this game wasn't it

I really have to say that the only way that Boofa played at that kick from Orford was if he cracked a fat.

KK at least it was a game we could lose without being knocked out, at least we've still got our 6 point buffer thanks to the Broncos.
