Time to start climbing that dam ladder again boys ….You can do it ..Just believe ,and another win by 6 would be just awesome .

Suncorp trifecta is ours today. Bit of a bummer that the NRL and cup games today are at the same time. But I'm sure both sides will pull through!

 

[Po11um]

Warriors need to get the 2pts today to keep intouch with raiders & bulldogs & top4 hopes.
Two close to call.

Let's gone eat!

Up The Ahs!

 

[Playdaball]

Any word around late changes ?

 

[Bluecat]

We are good enough to win well but we will have to be a lot better than last week. Hopefully we don't need a monumental cock up from Reese Walsh to win this one
Warriors 12 and under

 

[MXRecord]

I've got a bad feeling about this game. Here's hoping my gut is wrong which wouldnt be the first time.

Its probably the PTSD from years of being a Warriors fan.

Got a bad feeling as well. Warriors maybe on the wrong side of the scoreboard.

Pretty sure you've been saying this since round 3. Be positive for once! Wahnation will be very pleased tonight!

 

[Noitall]

With Ponga in doubt for origin 3, Walsh will be eyeing that spot up. Shutting down him, Mam and Staggs will go a long way towards victory. Forwards need to lift after a quiet one last week

 

[sydneywarrior92]

Defence is key today. We can't play into their hands and let them turn this into a game of touch. Play the game on our terms by turning the contest into a grind where we have the advantage. Do that and we should be too good for the broncs. They make a lot of errors, so they will give us plenty of opportunities today. Their defense was like Swiss cheese at times last week.

 

[Noitall]

Reckon we’ll see Bunty come in for Niukore. The real interesting one will be Metcalf? Certainly looks apart of the captains run footage I posted

That's not a bad shout if Marata is still suspect. I'm not sure what the protocol is for fractured/broken noses but I was surprised he was named. Bunty is good for a solid 20 min stint. Anything more than that and he starts getting sloppy on D. Ford can play 50-60 minutes today (which is what he is averaging I think).

Yeah I can’t see Niukore taking the field after last week. TMM told he won’t be extended, would be interesting to know if Bunty is in the same position? Hopefully playing for a contract brings out the best in him if he plays

 

[The Undertaker]

I am confident this team bounces back today. Last week was the kick in the arse we needed. Given how Penrith played against the Dogs, they are right back in the hunt and defensively back on.

We got outplayed last week but we were off our game - even though at 12-8 up we probably blew it.

I just want to see our feral hungry warrior forward pack come out of the blocks in scary mode. I want to see arrirude swagger and intimidation ratcheted up to level 10. Go after Haas like we did AFB.

With Rocco and Kurt back on deck leading the kick chase effort, I’m more confident we can grind these guys into the dirt and back them into their corner each set. Once again a 4 point game going into the bye. Expect a similar effort to the Sharks and Dolphins game.

I expect a 12 and under win - a pro Warriors crowd will make it feel like home.

Put the house on Leka scoring this week - off the bench he is way more impactful. Critical to bag the two points and keep the momentum going.

Wahs 12 and under. Let’s make Suncorp Stadium our bitch in 2025 by going three from three.
