Warriors slumped to sixth defeat

Warriors lose sixth straight

The 36-16 loss to the Raiders at a rainy Mt Smart Stadium on Sunday afternoon typified all that's gone wrong this year. 

Some good effort in patches, but it wasn't converted into points and errors and sloppy defence proved costly.

Kearney blasted his players after their loss to the Knights last weekend for not trying. That wasn't as much a factor in this game, more a case of them being outclassed and having no confidence.

 "It's another disappointing night," lamented Kearney afterwards.
