sport news Warriors fans BLAST their team for embarrassing loss to 12-man Cronulla and ... trends now
Warriors fans turned on their team following a calamitous 29-10 loss against Cronulla, with some supporters demanding a 'heck of an apology' following another disastrous display.
Two weeks after suffering their worst-ever loss in a 70-10 shellacking against Melbourne on Anzac Day, the Warriors plunged new depths as they lost to a Sharks side that was forced to play with 12 men for 63 minutes.
Cronulla became the first NRL since 2008 to win a game despite having a game sent off and remain unbeaten on home soil this season, while the Warriors have more soul-searching to do after another inexplicable loss.

Fans of social media delivered a scathing assessment of the performance on Sunday and of the club as a whole, with the Warriors increasingly rudderless.
Some supporters described the Warriors as an 'absolute shambles' and an 'absolute embarrassment', while others admitted the loss to the Sharks was simply indefensible.
William Kennedy became the second NRL player to be sent off in as many weeks after smashing into Reece Walsh with his left forearm outstretched, as the Warriors young gun looked to evade him.

The old-fashioned coat-hanger tackle earned the Sharks fullback his marching orders and looked to have paved the way to a comfortable win for the visitors at Shark Park.
The Warriors immediately capitalised on their numerical superiority, with Dallin Watene-Zelezniak crossing on the following set, before Viliami Vailea added a second just four minutes later.
Their 10-6 lead, however, didn't last long as Cronulla hit back through tries from Teig Wilton and Connor Tracey either side of halftime.
