The Dogs are wobbling. They didn't deserve to beat St George last night.
Melbourne lost to Manly. The top of the table is opening up and a win puts us 3rd equal on points.
And Penrith are coming for everyone.
We are 4th on the ladder and Newcastle are 13th. Here's a great chance to build up our for and against and to make a statement to the competition that the Warriors ARE the real deal. I want to see mistake free footy and a professional performance from the guys.
Maybe even a hint of arrogance?
We are the Warriors and if you're good enough come and get us.
And if you're not we'll eat
 
We are literally playing shit today. No matter which poo stained players we come up against today, I want to see another professional performance where we give them no quarter. 2 pt or 20 pt win I don't care. Just leave Newcastle with the 2 pts.

Capewah has to get in Bests face all day as he was against Herbie and Ramien in his last two performances. Can't let them shift the ball to either edge as they have strike on both sides (provided they actually take the field of course). Do that and we force the knights back into the middle of the field.

As others have said, we have the edge in the middle. Knights starting pack is ok and they will absolutely come out firing with a lot of energy as parra and the Dragons did for the first half of the game. Add to that the parochial crowd will definitely mean we have to be wary that the ref might shaft us early. We have to weather that early onslaught, as the storm did last week, and come over the top of them towards the back end of their game. We have more impact off the bench with Demi, Laban and TSS able to take us to another level when they come on.

Every game we play against a non-top 4 side (basically every week now other than rd 23 vs dogs) is going to be a banana skin. But I trust that we've already had our customary wobbles before finals out of the way and we are ready to go another gear leading up to finals.

Wahs to win. Don't care by how much.
 
You would hope that someone in the crowd takes pity on the knights and lobs a few toilet rolls onto the pitch...
I think the lads can show the knights what hygiene is all about and give them a good rinse and flush
Wahs by 12+
 
well, if we don't win this by 30 or more it will be a bad day .... maybe sj was right when he said 52-6 on the league lounge ... just hope we don't what cryptospiridium the poor knight have
