[@Tokoa144]

This was the greatest Warriors win of all time!! To beat the reining Premiers at home in a semi final with a star thudded line up like the Storm had... That was the best feeling ever! Thanks for posting this most memorable game, I will treasure it for life. What a team we had that year!

[@roberthall7117]

This was a elimination quarter 1 storm vs 8 warriors. YES 🙂🙂 a very memorable game this is. Warriors breaking records. The first time an 8th place beating a team in 1st place in knockout stage of NRL.

[@MusMasi]

same year kiwis upset the kangaroos to win the world cup

[@mpowlesland]

Manu Vatuvei, one of the best wingers ever in the NRL.

[@Tokoa144]

100% Agree with you!! History will remember this great winger for a long time..

[@wahwahgaboor]

Definitely on attack.. could be a bit loose catching bombs and had the turning circle of the Queen Mary... but an awesome player

[@rashneelwalla380]

Greatest bum in jail

[@macm3924]

He was a class A player. He was ice cold. Never cracked under pressure. A real methodical player. With that last play he put the P in pass.

[@Moneyalmenial]

Good job, mate

[@My1notyours0409]

Jesus that must have taken a pen and a paper to complete this lol. Thanks mate not all heroes wear capes.

[@spidermn17]

You sir are a legend

[@samisonitupou9180]

As a recent fan I love the fact that i can watch these games to see how legends played back in the day

[@UNCLEBILLYTEE]

Nathan fien, Henderson and hohiea where so under rated man.

[@panikahukiwa2777]

These little guys were awesome

[@89kilemal]

*Hohaia *were *underrated

[@bobbybblazing5357]

I know that this was a reply from 2008, but for some weird reason I was on the edge of my seat. As if life was back to normal and there was no more coronavirus. Stay safe everyone. And hope footy comes back soon. 💙

[@davidblomkamp893]

That Melbourne team is stacked... Madge as a waterboy, Steve Kearny and Brad Arthur as assistant coaches and Bellamy as coach!

[@F3DR685]

born and bred warriors fan since they first started and been through the years and up until now just watching this game reminds me through thick and thin tears of joy and heartbreak never give up and never fall back regardless of the situation on and off the game stay strong and steady and know the day will come for us warrior fans when we will stand side side with pride watching our boys win a grand final for now keep ur colours on and keep the faith proud of youse boys no matter what comes your way ☮️ y'all

[@timgates903]

It was the finest game I have seen the warriors play.

[@sajchoudhary7575]

I was there. Just moved to Melbourne that actual day (been living in London and Blenheim for a few years and got into the Warriors and League). Jet lag (26 hour travelling) disappeared quickly after this win. What a day!

[@marleymcleay9228]

Do you know why Michael Witt held back on scoring? "He was trying to wind the clock down - he saved us a whole second" paraphrasing Ivan Cleary after asking Michael about the theatrics.

[@scoobydoobydoo4880]

Yet it took 21 seconds for the final tackle of the game to be made from the kickoff lol.

[@Pafuki25]

I remember watching this in Samoa. I was going crazy whilst people from my village were walking past wondering why I wasn’t at church lol

[@DJLEEFUL79]

I was hoping to see Craig Bellamy kick the chair across the changing room but it finished early. But this is 1 of 2 favourite Warrior's games I love.

[@sandorclegane3658]

Ropo had a lot of work to do there. Beautiful.

[@panikahukiwa2777]

Jerome Ropati doesn't get the codes he deserves. He had it all over Folau when it counted. Ran around him to score a try and then started the actual movement that lead to Witt scoring the winner, also around Folau in the process.

[@mitchellgalloway3236]

This was truly one of the great warriors wins.1st team from 8 to beat 1st

[@elijahtchilembe-mpovie2715]

*An All Time CLASSIC*

[@simalph]

Best ever from the warriors

[@eggruns2370]

The michael witt try kills me

[@jackmarshall757]

I could swear that on this day you could feel the Warriors were going to win

[@tafatapaleao4588]

1:32:28 most important clutch moment ever

[@kvmftOriginal03]

Big props to the Storm fan applauding the Warriors at the end of the game, 1:35:44

[@wadesharp11]

Never gets old

[@masiTzz]

Another great Melbourne win✊🏽 Oh wait

[@Maccyduff]

Miss this era of footy

[@woolmit316]

I love Rabs, Gus and Phil Collin’s praises at the end for The Warriors.

[@MrIntellijent]

I forgot Melbourne used to play in that little park

[@adthomp]

Michael Witt LOL

[@philliparmitstead1260]

2:15 Rabs Ray Warren is a prophet he predicted the Grandfinal score haha haha omg

[@tevitabryce8892]

That storm number 6 is quite af

[@sesetio338]

I still remember some of the names of this Warriors side. 😅

[@philliparmitstead1260]

[@hendrixhenry3123]

[@philliparmitstead1260]

2:15 40 love haha hahahah 40-0 Ray Rabs Warren is a prophet haha haha Predicted it before it happened hahahahaha HAHAHAHA

[@scoobydoobydoo4880]

Sterlo: 77:30 - "there is nothing left in the Warriors at the moment" - and at that very moment, the Warriors break away and score. The Commentators curse strikes again lol.

[@georgedavidson2024]

Can you guys do this every off season??

[@milankengur7216]

Melbourne won’t throw this away

[@domeniczappia2436]

i said on the bell. i was in shock bravo

[@SamiAmone11]

Izzy vs the beast one the best NRL games

[@philipduff7350]

What is Fien saying to Price on the way back to half way after the winning try??

[@nzru]

Price was having a go at Witt, for showboating, and Fien was ripping into Price for it, he's saying "He just won the f**king game" and so on. I genuinely believe rhis moment I when Price lost rhe locker room and eventually the captaincy

[@89kilemal]

​@@nzruPrice had a point though, it was ridiculous.

[@shaneashby4170]

Up the WAHS

[@ThurstonWatt]

Storm crowd booing....classless, as always.

[@chickennugget6985]

Hope Melbourne wins....

[@sesetio338]

The game that changed the rule lol

[@sarahhogan2328]

[@jordanklingsporn763]

[@liamporter1054]

[@tuckervfx]

Right at the end it's funny watching Melbourne trying to beat the warriors at their own game with the ridiculous offloads backyard footy kinda stuff

[@AB07panthers]

[@slau330]

[@Shutthagate_]

[@romeltuitupou4044]

[@reapertally8409]

Warriors were best when they didn’t have kiwis in there team lol 😂

[@Shutthagate_]

That’s why Penrith panthers are now champions! Ivan clearly as coach will always win 🥇 in close matches with the storm ⛈!
