As a tigers fan, that game left me angry for weeks. I remember refusing to watch the rest of the final series because I was so frustrated. Oh, what I would do to get my team back in the eight right now
Im a tigers fan cos of Benji and a warriors fan cos i live in NZ, and I agree. Tigers havent made the top 8 since, and warriors have once so I feel you bro. I miss these days, those 2010 and 11 tigers teams were deadly
I went to the Tigers vs Warriors game and I was in Year 3, I was crying but I thought, don’t worry, we’ll be back. I’m in university now. Still yet to see us make the 8 since.
I feel your pain lol, it felt like the start of a new era for the Warriors when all 3 grades made the GF in 2011, well its been 10 years and we've only made the 8 once....
That play by Johnson in the prelim to get the try assist to Brown and seal the game, that is one of my all time highlights I've ever seen. I'm a diehard manly fan and watching that got me excited and nervous for the Grand Final.
Clearly was one of the greatest things to happen to the Warriors franchise. It's a shame they pushed him out, as he's only gone on to Coach other outfits into consistent finals contention.
Imagine if he didn't leave. Nathan would surely be the warrior half and SJ could play his natural game. Nathan was a warrior ball boy and was never seen out of his warrior merch. How good would that be
This was actually a really interesting video, nice one. I'm a Manly fan and I always thought 2011 was just a story of the Warriors choking in one of their only GFs but their whole season was so up and down it's impressive they got as far as they did. Fair play to them. Also didn't know Cleary was their coach at the time, that's cool. Obviously I'm biased but Manly's 2008 Finals push might make a decent video: they racked up the best for and against record in history (110:12), biggest GF win in history, beat a team that was cheating and farewelled the highest try-scoring forward of all time with one last put down. Good story there imo, except nobody likes to hear nice things about Manly lol
Every time I hear keeping the faith, I think of this particular year. Saw Shaun Johnson at the airport two years ago and was like “oh yo there’s Shaun Johnson!” And then carried on about my day.
@@chrismason3614 ok mr delusional and i think my comment beats yours..... name 1 positive thing on field thing the warriors have achieved in the last 10 years, hell go the previous 20+ years.... 2 fluke grand final appearances.... yeah you're right great club doing great things 🙄
League is not big in nz, however, its massive in Auckland. Nzers hold league as a way their kids can make the nrl, outside of Aux its hardly played but a few good players outside Aux.
This was a cool season we'd sit with reserve grade team watching the nrl side and we'd be yelling for shaun Johnson to debut constantly he was calving up in nsw cup and kept selecting Brett seymour
Because we lost Maloney and cleary and lost our good players from age and better offers so they took the better deals so that's why warriors haven't been to a final for 8 years
That's why this year is so exciting, but it sucks we have panthers who are a level above everyone & broncos are are having a very strong season. But the boys are looking a bit off the last two games. So hopefully they'll show their muscle and prove why we're 3rd this year
I absolutely hate the warriors, when I bet against them, they win with all odds stacked against them. And the Australian officials do not want them to succeed. Its an absolute challenge. But I love them and follow them every weekend.
SJ should never have been made the halfback. Kevin Locke should've been the halfback. Locke had the footy smarts and was a natural fit for the 7 role. SJ should've been 3, 4 or 1.
The thing about the Warriors in the finals that got to me that year, was apart from the Storms, the Tigers were in red hot form to beat Manly (not a Tigers fan) and they get knocked out by a fluke or a try from Inu late in the game.. and if memory serves me correct the Tigers hadn't done much wrong that game to loss against the Warriors in the end, if Warriors went on to beat Manly I wouldn't of cared so much but we all know how the story ended
Do you think you could do south Sydney breaking there drought I’m not to keen on RUGBY league I like AFL THE ONLY rugby league I watch is state of origin and the NRL grand final
Good video, I was at the semi final they won in Melbourne. NZ warriors haved sucked ever since they lost Ivan Cleary as coach. Combined that with shady NRL refs, NRL administration using NZTV rights as a personal ATM for decades. Covid means Warriors and the National side the Kiwi's haven't had any games in the country for 2 years. Rugby League in NZ has only had park footy to offer while professional super rugby union and international Union has continued to be played in NZ.
Most poorly run club ever, how do you have 3 teams in the finals (u20 nsw cup and nrl premiership) and some how the next 10 years produce nothing but consistent shit!! Surely a top 8 finish more than once isn't asking much
Warriors should have given Cleary an extension he would have won a title with the team he had .... management stuffed it up and still are 🤦🤦🤦 gant beleve it mate😂

Shame on the NRL.
What flops they are
I went to that grand final. I wanted the Warriors to win, but I have to give Manly credit. At that time, they were such a strong team.
I went to all 3 tigers was the best ever storm was a cool win but yeah manly was the better team.
thats what peds do i guess
Guys, if the NRL tries to take this guy's channel then we as viewers need to take a stand for him! Good work Alpha!
We need to dislike every video the NRL posts.
As a tigers fan, that game left me angry for weeks. I remember refusing to watch the rest of the final series because I was so frustrated. Oh, what I would do to get my team back in the eight right now
I feel your pain bro
Agreed

That’s brutal. Relatively similar fate to the Warriors playoff success though :-/
I feel your pain lol, it felt like the start of a new era for the Warriors when all 3 grades made the GF in 2011, well its been 10 years and we've only made the 8 once....
MPT1983 yeah it’s unfortunate, but you’ve got players like Walsh and Curran coming through so the future is bright for the Warriors
@@tigersfan00 Hope so, we said the same when Johnson, RTS, Luke and Foran were in the side lol
@@MPT1983 tis sad indeed. Unfortunately Luke and Foran’s best years were well behind them, they were just big names at that point.
That play by Johnson in the prelim to get the try assist to Brown and seal the game, that is one of my all time highlights I've ever seen. I'm a diehard manly fan and watching that got me excited and nervous for the Grand Final.
Clearly was one of the greatest things to happen to the Warriors franchise. It's a shame they pushed him out, as he's only gone on to Coach other outfits into consistent finals contention.
They didn't push him out, Phil Gould poached him.
@@TheBriwi phil should poach him back lol
we doing mean this year lets go!
Imagine if he didn't leave. Nathan would surely be the warrior half and SJ could play his natural game. Nathan was a warrior ball boy and was never seen out of his warrior merch. How good would that be
I remember all to well. We had three teams in the grand final and only the under 20's victorious.
was a nail biter ending too, 31-30 😂
James Maloney is low key immortal
Sad
No
James Maloney and Ivan Cleary is how they did it.
I'll give you Ivan. Maloney was good but he ain't doing that shit by himself.
Would never have made a g/f without them
@@edless7835 Iwould put it down to the forward pack, bench and Johnson's amazing debut season a bit more, respectfully. Not to mention Mannering
As a Warriors supporter I rated Maloney too..and the always underrated Lance Hohaia
Whichever team Maloney goes, the team goes to the finals

A great idea mate i'll have a look into it
And just like that im a sub. Great piece on a team often overlooked for stories
Always gotta watch these videos as soon as they come out before they get removed
the NRL won't take this one down they don't care about the Warriors,look at the calls that go against them lol
Every time I hear keeping the faith, I think of this particular year.
Saw Shaun Johnson at the airport two years ago and was like “oh yo there’s Shaun Johnson!” And then carried on about my day.
Best NRL content online, Keep it up mate. You're killing it 😤
Thanks mate been watching your content for the last couple years
Warriors deserve success, and I think their future looks bright
Very debatable
Ok mr negative but I reckon the 1st guys comments beats yours lol
@@chrismason3614 ok mr delusional and i think my comment beats yours..... name 1 positive thing on field thing the warriors have achieved in the last 10 years, hell go the previous 20+ years.... 2 fluke grand final appearances.... yeah you're right great club doing great things 🙄
@@shane1899 wow, um taking my kids to see them live a few years ago was pretty cool. I think you should relax bud 😊
@@chrismason3614 "on field" not what have the warriors done to benefit Chris mason. But as long as you're happy
League is not big in nz, however, its massive in Auckland. Nzers hold league as a way their kids can make the nrl, outside of Aux its hardly played but a few good players outside Aux.
What a awesome video. Can you do one on the '02 Warriors please 🙏
This was a cool season we'd sit with reserve grade team watching the nrl side and we'd be yelling for shaun Johnson to debut constantly he was calving up in nsw cup and kept selecting Brett seymour
Love the way Johnson completely turns around proctor for that try set up
More important question:
Why haven’’t the Warriors reached the Grand Final since 2011?
Because we lost Maloney and cleary and lost our good players from age and better offers so they took the better deals so that's why warriors haven't been to a final for 8 years
@@nathansim3814 they have had many great signings since just cant put it together for some reason
Many teams have not made the grand final since 2011
There's been a makatu on the warriors since after 2011 to 2022😭
Bro what a video! I remember this season as a kid, it was crazy. Big fan of ur videos keep it up🤟🏽💯

Awesome video, cheers. Brought back some great memories. 2021 our year!!
That's why this year is so exciting, but it sucks we have panthers who are a level above everyone & broncos are are having a very strong season. But the boys are looking a bit off the last two games. So hopefully they'll show their muscle and prove why we're 3rd this year
I think the Warriors will make it to the top 8 this year they have got talented players and have already did better than last year
Watching in 2023, first play offs in a few days, Our year boys!!
The Warriors should be allowed an extra 2mil in the cap.
Beautifully said…love it
Just found your channel and now I’m hooked!
There's still hope for warriors to make the the 8 2021
We asked and you delivered. Thank you Sir!
I absolutely hate the warriors, when I bet against them, they win with all odds stacked against them. And the Australian officials do not want them to succeed. Its an absolute challenge. But I love them and follow them every weekend.
Mean video bro keep them up
I've watched the Melbourne QF more than any other game. Still can't bring myself to watch the GF again.
great content. subscribed
Yeah talk about an all time highlight. 8:19. Look at Proctor, sums up how the Storm felt.
"rollercoaster ride" - basically sums up being a kiwi watching the Warriors; world beaters one week hopeless the next
Awesome video man!
Awesome vid bro keep em coming
Could u do a parra 09 one? it was kinda similar situation as this one
SJ should never have been made the halfback. Kevin Locke should've been the halfback. Locke had the footy smarts and was a natural fit for the 7 role. SJ should've been 3, 4 or 1.
SJ should have been the allblack number 15 with Beauden Barret at 10, before Johnsons injury he was the most skilful runner/passer of the ball
Make a cowboys one please
More of these types of videos please
Well done, sir!
You left out Piggy George Rose elbowing Heramia in the face, knocking him out and only getting put on report. Great vid though!
Great video
Good vid, can you do one about the broncos 2015 season?
The thing about the Warriors in the finals that got to me that year, was apart from the Storms, the Tigers were in red hot form to beat Manly (not a Tigers fan) and they get knocked out by a fluke or a try from Inu late in the game.. and if memory serves me correct the Tigers hadn't done much wrong that game to loss against the Warriors in the end, if Warriors went on to beat Manly I wouldn't of cared so much but we all know how the story ended
Only 2 teams without a premiership in the comp not a warrior fan sorry
Can you make a cowboys mini documentary
class mate
Let’s not forget when cleary was there all 3 grades made the grade final that year too
sick vid
They had leaders back then, good Aussie players that lead the young kiwi boys. Now too many show pony island boys that don't like tackling
Do you think you could do south Sydney breaking there drought
I’m not to keen on RUGBY league I like AFL
THE ONLY rugby league I watch is state of origin and the NRL grand final
And now there coming 5th while I’m saying this they’ve bounced back
New vid idea if Souths win the grand final do a rise for Souths from two wooden spoons to two grand final not bad right
That NZ flag jersey was and remains the Warriors greatest ever jersey.
bs

Simply the best.. better than all the rest.. The Winners..(. sorry Warrior's.)
Every team Maloney went to made finals footy. Warriors had their biggest chance to win their first premiership
Can u make a documentary on the Rabbitohs
Why don’t NZ have more NRL teams?
Can you do one of the 2012 or 2014 bulldogs season?
yes please
Do parra 2009
look at the 2023 Warriors they are chance to win there first premiership.
2011 feels comin back bro warriors to win 2023 premiership 🙏
@@killamazilla3835 For sure bro!!!
They gave up Ivan too early
No talks about "almost"
Meam vid bro.
Let's gone Warriors.
Most poorly run club ever, how do you have 3 teams in the finals (u20 nsw cup and nrl premiership) and some how the next 10 years produce nothing but consistent shit!! Surely a top 8 finish more than once isn't asking much
*Titans and Tigers have entered the chat*
It was designed to be a warriors vs broncos grand finals
Fuck the Wazzas lol, but great video my man! Soooo, you're telling me there's a chance!!!! Hahahahaha
hahahaah thanks my man
Warriors should have given Cleary an extension he would have won a title with the team he had .... management stuffed it up and still are 🤦🤦🤦 gant beleve it mate😂
If darren Lockyer hadn't been injured...Warriors still would have lost.
Yoo
From finals elimination to........final elimination. How DID they do it? 🤣🤣🤣
So basically they've always been disappointing?
UP THE WAAHSS
My dad calls Ivan “traitor Cleary”
So do tigers fans
It wasn't cleary's decision mate, it was the board that decided to can him
The board didn't decide to keep the most successful coach the Warriors ever had.
So Do Wests Tigers Supporters
No magic there if thay one the grandfinal then magic
Shaun Johnson is the Braith Anasta of the 2010s: over rated.
Shaun Johnson in his prime was in no way shape or form overrated he was one of the best if not the best half in the game at the time
@@killamazilla3835 hes the best stepper period, he could beat half a team with his pace and elusiveness pre injury, haters gone hate lol
Boo
It was a fluke, complete fluke.
