Mike's Minute: It's a good time to be a Warriors fan

I tell you what, it never gets old.

How good are the Warriors? First time since 2018 we are 3-0.

It's the second time ever. That’s a lot of years where the start has not been as good as the start of 2026.

The Knights, although seemingly better this year than last, are not the Roosters and certainly not the Raiders. So in that sense when they scored early in the first half you didn’t really wonder whether this was the week things could go wrong.

The half-time score wasn't close so we didn’t have to run away with it in the second.
 
The score at the break gave you a good sense. We were never really going to be tested.

At one point late in the second when the Knights scored again, the commentators got a bit over-hyped and the crowd went nuts, as though another three converted tries was ever going to be a thing that was about to happen, given they were 18 behind.

The points perhaps didn’t flow like our first two games. But at 38-12 it wasn’t a contest. Look at any stat - completed sets, yards carried, tackles made - we killed them.

So not just three wins out of three, but three really good wins.

Andrew Webster will be in the weeds looking for little bits and pieces to work on.

But for most of us, the fans, this is as good as it gets. You simply can't ask for more.

There are no obvious issues, no glaring errors and no lucky escapes or last minute miracles.

We are winning and winning easily. We have beaten a good side in the Roosters, a great side in the Raiders and an ordinary side in the Knights.

There would seem at this point to be no side we would fear. No side we don’t believe we can beat.

We are a complete, fast, fit and agile team.

We're also a team with some very good players still to return.

Once again, as we have these past three weeks, I'll remind you it’s a long season and a lot can happen. But you simply control what's put in front of you and to this point, we cannot have started any better than we have.

This might well be the best beginning to a season we have ever had.

There is something special brewing. Say it with real confidence - this is our year.
