Jumping in the pool for a much-needed recovery session, the NZ Warriors were still feeling the effects from playing an extra 10 minutes against the Broncos.
"I walked away from that game not knowing how to feel," admits skipper Roger Tuivasa-Sheck. "Did we win, did we lose?"
They did neither.
Instead, they walked away with a solitary competition point, after the first NRL draw in three seasons.
Tuivasa-Sheck wasn't happy.

"I just think we should keep going to be honest, keep playing until someone wins," he says.
But that's a challenge, especially given the workload of players
"To have an unlimited timeframe to get a result from a game is difficult from that perspective, but I'll never rule anything out," says NRL head of football Graham Annesley..
Veteran Warriors hooker Issac Luke sees no reason why it should be changed. He's more worried about turning golden-point games into wins.
The first thing the Warriors need to address is having a pool of players that can kick field goals.
"If you've got four of them at the back, they don't know who you're going to go to," says Luke.
But they're hardly blessed with options - no-one in the squad has kicked a field goal in their career, so they're looking for candidates.
"I'll definitely go and practice some," says Tuivasa-Sheck.
"Definitely not my go," insists Luke. "You seen me drop out? Terrible."
Half Kodi Nikorima is keen, despite missing three of them on Saturday.
"I do a lot after trainings anyway, so might just have to add a couple more, I think."
Maybe they need to rethink the tactic...
"Rather than just trying to get down and kick a goal, we should try and score," suggests Luke.
The Warriors haven't won with a golden-point field goal since 2009 - Stacey Jones against Sydney Roosters.
The three wins they've had since then have come from tries.
Maybe their next golden-point appearance could be more freestyled.
