The NRL Finals - Round 2 Thread

[Gerrumonside ref]

But no!  The Wahs bounce back with a try of their own under the posts.

[Futtocks]

Dylan Walker try, Pompey conversion - 22:10.

[Gerrumonside ref]

The twelve point lead restored for NZ with nearly ten mins gone in the second half. 

[Futtocks]

Dislocated finger for Curran. Nasty.

[Gerrumonside ref]

The Knights have got through an awful lot of defensive work in this game.

You just feel their tank might start to empty.

Can they get back into it for a grandstand finish.

[Futtocks]

Berry gets the ball down somehow. Great offload by DWZ.

[Gerrumonside ref]

Herculean effort from Berry to score with three Knights tacklers trying to prevent the try.

You’d think the Warriors will be home and hosed now.

The Wah fans go crazy.

It’s been a more even encounter after a blistering start by the Warriors.

 

[Gerrumonside ref]

And Futtocks can light his cigar now!

[Futtocks]

DWZ in! Yes!!

[Gerrumonside ref]

And a wag has the “Knightmare on Church Street” sign at the ready in the crowd

[Gerrumonside ref]

Crowd loving this as the Warriors pouring it on now.

[Graham]

The atmosphere created by this massive crowd is just amazing. I think they are quite happy.

[Graham]

With 6 or 7 minutes left Shaun Johnson is taken off to rest and protect him.

[Gerrumonside ref]

It’s become a huge celebration now 

[Futtocks]

Cherry on top supplied by Sironen.

Sironen try with four minutes to go. That came from a Ponga spilled ball.
