Warriors try-scorer Rocco Berry Photo: Photosport The Warriors crashed to their sixth straight loss in a major dent to their top eight hopes, but no one could doubt their courage after never backing down despite having their bench cleared by half-time. The Panthers showed no mercy, running in three second-half tries in 13 minutes to keep their hopes of a second straight minor premiership alive. Depth wasn't a problem for the Panthers after welcoming back all five of their State of Origin players - Isaah Yeo, Kurt Capewell, Api Koroisau, Brian To'o and Liam Martin. But it was a concern for Wa...

DOWNLOAD The win kept them equal on premiership points with first-placed Melbourne while the Warriors (5-12) are now two wins outside the top eight. The Warriors' first lost go-to forward Tohu Harris to a suspected ACL tear in what was his return from a shoulder injury, before five-eighth and captain Roger Tuivasa-Sheck (concussion) copped an accidental knock making a tackle. They soldiered on with tries off short balls to Wayde Egan and Rocco Berry, before they too left the field with shoulder and hamstring injuries respectively. Egan will likely miss the rest of the season but still put his...

Tuivasa-Sheck could be set for at least a week on the sideline after suffering a sickening head knock making a tackle on Penrith playmaker Matt Burton. Playing in the new position of five-eighth, we barely got a chance to see the skipper combine in the halves with Chad Townsend, his injury coming just three minutes after Harris’ departure. Despite the carnage, the Warriors still led 10-4 midway through the first half. However, the premiership heavyweights eventually took control to hammer another nail in the coffin of the Kiwi side's playoff hopes. Even before the run of injuries, there...

Winners Raiders halfback Sam Williams bagged two tries against Manly to top the round with 76. While his spot in first grade looks assured for the rest of the year and he will make some fast cash in the short term, he hasn't been a Fantasy factor before and it's getting a bit late for cash cows. Jason Taumalolo was the best of the likely captaincy options with 68 including a line break to set up a try and looks to have got his mojo back. Bulldogs skipper Josh Jackson (66) gave his absolute all in a tight loss to the Roosters, Souths wingers Alex Johnston (69) and Taane Milne (64) each bagged ...

"We definitely need to hand the ball over in a lot better positions," halfback Sean O'Sullivan said. "Last week we had a seven-tackle set, we had a play-one error, we had a kick on loose ground that (Dragons fullback Matt) Dufty picked up. "We went through about how we hand the ball over in better situations and when we’re leading, how we should be thinking about handing the ball over. We should be learning by now. "As a spine we really need to nail that down, especially in our close games because we’ve lost a couple that we should have won."
