Man, that was disappointing by the Warriors. In front of that big home crowd, they should have won. In retrospect I suppose it was their first final since 2004, and a lot of their players were new to the environment. But still ...
What was Swann thinking not passing? He'll never live that down. Pretty obvious the way the way was going that it cost them the win. Price's chargedown at the end was also baffling. I don't see Parra going too far, they had enough ball to win two or three matches in the first half but had nothing against a decent defence. They'll get eaten alive if they play Melbourne at any stage.
Warriors can improve and win next week, but 2008 will be their year to have a genuine shot at the comp, I reckon.
