Late one team!

Storm are vulnerable. This is our opportunity to get to beat the Storm before a Storm (cyclone) batters us in Sunday!

 

[Makasene]

Across the entire NRL it has been upsets and floggings.

I dare say we will be one.

I'm thinking a high scoring janfin

 

[BabylonPink]

Crankn my hog if we win today boys

 

[Po11um]

This seems to be the upset round. Both teams on the slide 50/50 match.

This is what makes our country great. Attention to international affairs and fuel shortages, keep up that thinking sonny, one day you will be an All Black.

What straight of Hormus? Turn up the loud tap on that Harley........we are talking about bikes here ain't we Pinky?

 

[Warriors4lyfe]

Lots of injuries, sending our B team over. Upset win like when we bet Panthers in magic round couple years ago
Thunder and lightning ain't got shit on the mighty Warriors .
This is the game where the storm play us back into form for once.
Keep the faith!
Up the mighty Warriors!!!

 

[Bluecat]

We're down on troops and confidence
The Storm got whacked last week and will be looking to make a statement.
It would be a brave man to actually put a decent amount of money on The Warriors.
But seeing as it's not real money Warriors 12 and under. All we have to do is repeat what the Doggies did to Penrith on Thursday night.
Simple

Bikes?? I thought he lived on a farm with lots of …


Warriors <12

 

[WAH MAN]

Leka and Ali will be targets tonight but I back them to rip in and expect to see the same resilience that wore down Cambra. Hunt them team. They are as vulnerable as we are. Do we have it in us.

Abso mother fucking loot lee.

Get it boys. Grind them down to fine grade storm flour and use their bones to make your bread.

 

[Zaggo]

IT'S JUST A MATTER OF FAITH.

I flew over for the game where we nearly beat them with half our team out and Tohu in the halves, and our team today is a lot better than it was then.

DARE TO DREAM.

 

[WAH MAN]

I reckon the injuries to Eliesa and Tui and also Papenhyzen's retirement have affected the Storm. Perhaps they are considering if pushing themselves to that near death point to win is worth it anymore?

Anyway, just spitballing.

From pig farming to bread making, what a feed !!!!

Hope the kids run riot with the win so you boys can eat

 

[BangBro's (still banging)]

We will be smoked today! It's about time the warriors get real about having Genuine centres! Im okay with Ali but to say leka is a centre, is clutching a bit.

I think leka does a role for the club but he hasn't played a whole lot there in his junior years.

Why cant we get this position right? Melbourne will have a field day on the edges today.

 

[BangBro's (still banging)]

Do we rely on wayde Egan too much? I mean that when hes quiet we are usually average. Last two weeks, how much has he been able to get us penalties and repeat sets?

 

[3rdstriker]

Warriors 6 and under upsets on.

 

[Christchurch_Warrior]

TBH I am not expecting much. Not looking forward to an edge of Niukore and Ali. We will need to run at Grant all game to tire him out and keep rushing Munster and Hughes to have a chance. Storm by a fair margin but I hope I am wrong.

 

[BrisbaneWarrior]

We have to break the hoodoo sometime, why not tonight with a Janfin special

 

[Canonball]

ah yes, the ezi-beats in their spiffing purple zoot suits, they'll be begging for mercy after 60, but we shall not relent, no! not now. not eva! No retreat no surrender !

Warriors by plenty - somebody jinxed the panthers the other day, but we have the moon in phase so everything is a free shot - I reckon we do this, and do it reasonably well - no jokes - it's just a feeling

 

[enterthewarrior]

This round has been the round of upsets/away teams winning but unfortunately I can't see us winning tonight. Melbourne will be looking to avoid 4 losses and are playing at home.
