The Warriors played like they did in their prime of 2002-2003. They threw the ball around with no fear. For once, they look like a team who can compete with the best.
The warriors started with a bold statement. In their first set of six fullback Wade McKinnon broke though a poor Penrith defence and then offloaded to five-eight and fellow Australian Michael Witt who scored under the posts.
Penrith soon hit back with a try to Luke Lewis. But minutes later the warriors struck back with a snipe out of dummy half by hooker George Gatis. The Warriors continued to throw the ball around, offloading at will. In the seventeenth minute the warriors scored a try almost identical to their first, a Wade McKinnon break and then offloading to Michael Witt who got his second.
Not long after, big Wairangi Koopu barged over to give the warriors 24 points on the board in as many minutes. Then in the thirtieth minute Penrith halfback Craig Gower put a pinpoint kick to the corner for winger Nick Youngquest, hinting that maybe Penrith were not done yet. But two late second half tries for the warriors put Penrith all but out of the match.
The second half was a bit quieter as Penrith closed some of the gaps in their defence. In the 49th minute Keith Peters crossed the white line, to restore some pride for the panthers.
Ten minutes later Man of Match Wade Mckinnon scored one of the tries of the season, receiving an offload from Patrick Ah Van, he raced sixty metres breaking tackles and twisting other players inside out, it really was something special from the warrior’s buy of the season.
The warriors scored two more tries courtesy of big men Epalahame Lauaki and Louis Anderson.
This was a crucial performance by the warriors, backing up from their gutsy victory over the sharks last week.
