Berry to unleash his attacking flare and score a double.

King Tohu to lead from the front with a VB hard earned blinder.

TMM to continue his playmaking wizardry setting up 3 tries.

Egan to tackle with all arms, let through 2 tries but finish the game!

[miket12]

AFB to take the first hit up and make an “I’m back boys” statement with 15 PCM with his first carry.

 

[Possum11]

Warriors with no confidence it's almost too close to call.

 

[John Nick]

AFB to take the first hit up and make an “I’m back boys” statement with 15 PCM with his first carry.

He's the key man imo

 

[Dantheman]

Let’s go boys!

Our season starts today!!!!

Or it ends . But I am fairly confident we can get this W.

Want to see a winning attitude today .. don't want to see a repeat of the previous crap again..
Up the wahs ....let's gone..

 

[Hatchet Harry]

Game day after a long overdue bye.
Conditions should be good for excellent ruuuugba leyyyygeh…

Wahs need a great platform which our forward pack (that’s FINALLY healthy) will give us. I’m interested in our defence and our Ability to roll through the middle.

If the Wahs are a credible premiership threat, we need to squeeze the life and spirit out of the cows minute by minute and keep them locked in their half.

Field position, limited errors, accuracy and intensity.

Basically, today I want to see a clinic from our guns with us running over the top of them and piling on some points in the final quarter after we have bashed them into submission.

Cows are overrated, time to show why we should be feared.

I’m picking Egan for a try today with a sniping run, and a checky one on Niukore.

Wahs by 13+ and a statement to the comp that we are back in business.

Eating a cowboy sounds a bit wrong compared to a rabbit or other teams. Probably only bad if it’s followed by out

 

[regenerated borg]

Actually if Barney and Wade play great games today onwards ... may lose them to origin as starters.. well deserved if they do..

 

[PNG Kiwi]

There is a great incentive for a lot of players to pull finger, as there are a bunch of younger guys pulling at the bit in the reserves.
I think a rested Tahu will be out to prove a point, as will AFB.
A lot of the team have been playing busted, so a chance to get back on the Warriors bus.

 

[janfin]

Kia Kaha boys just like I have had to be waiting for you to play again .You can do it just believe like I do every week that you will win by 6

 

[BangBro's (still banging)]

AFB to take the first hit up and make an “I’m back boys” statement with 15 PCM with his first carry.

Afb to crack 200m

 

[Bippidydoodah]

With our in's and their out's this should be 13+

 

[drunk_monk]

Letagonewahs

 

[SJ2k]

Bookies still favouring Cowboys, I'm reasonably confident though. Cowboys are no slouches, but I think most of our issues were down to injuries/exhaustion and we really lost all of those games bar the dragons by 1 try or less. Apart from missing SJ we've got every reason to win today.

 

[sup42]

Hard one to predict.
Two fairly even teams.
When the Cows play well you have to pull out an A+ game to be victorious.

Also we have no idea what Warriors side turns up today, so I get the TAB going with the more consistent option in the Cows.

I just hope we play very well, at the end of the day I have enjoyed the past two games, so I have some mental reserves to cope if we don't get them.

On the surface of things, it feels like a game where one side is going to be off their game today (patchy form from both) and one of us is going to get a hiding.
