Hide AdOne fan claimed the Warriors are too reliant on one of their key players.
They wrote: “(Bevan) French is getting burnt up. With no (Jai) Field to work with he’s lost. There isn’t much threat in the team.
"We need more utility players who can gut it out. Stop the no look passes and take a tackle rather than forcing a play.
"Think smart and play possession football, not hot potato.
"Going for the Hollywood killer move isn’t always the best option.”
