[juju]

Even our social team is all over the other teams socials teams.
Quite shocking to see how our fans support being posted compared the way the other clubs are posting about the occasion.

 

[Mr Drag]

The commentators are saying the NZ Warriors fans in Vegas is enormous!

 

[Wah u talkin about Wallis]

Anyone worried about the roll the ball rule. Would bet we get pinged for 2 at critical times.

 

[Mr Drag]

Wigan Warriors first try of the day

Don’t think we got pinged for one at all in the storm game.

What a way to start the season. Will be interesting to see what team buckles under the pressure, cause that crowd is going to be intense. I'm sure our boys will thrive under pressure with JFH and Barney. Up the bloody wahs.

Wigan Warriors first try of the day

Nephew of a Super Bowl winner no less - I'm sure the NRL/ESL media will flaunt that to try draw attention of US viewers

Can confirm wahs fans are everywhere. Also alot of poms too. Cheering for our namesake the ESL wahs atm against warrington. Refs are very hesitant to blow a penalty in this game. Maybe its a broader instruction to make the vegas games flow.

The Brother is s Sister...

Looking for the younger boys, especially Ali and Taine to hold their nerve tonight. We’ve got a number of senior players who have played in similar games so they are in good hands.

It was interesting listening to Ricky Stuart mentioning that they will look to move away from the traditional grind it out style of footy we’ve seen from them in the past, and look to play a more expansive, fast paced game. With the amount of youngsters they have in their roster, we will either see an error fest or their speedsters rip us to shreds if where not on our game.

Overall, I’m looking for a solid defensive effort today. Everyone working for each other and on the same page. Hopefully some of that defensive DNA we found in the 23 season is back, especially with the inclusion of Fish.

 

[Mr Drag]

I want Ricky to go home with that miserable face!

Beautiful day here in Vegas. Lovely temp, blue skies.

Don't know why I'm telling you this, the stadium is covered!

Is it possible for Metcalf to hit the rafters or roof with his up and unders?

The merchandise lately is making us look like a proper fanbase with an identity too with the OG colourways IMO. That's one thing that has stood out with AFC this year having their fans decked out in the team colours.

Simple solution Sup42.
Put the Jack Daniel's on your cornflakes.

This is not your first rodeo

 

[Boats n Hoes]

What a day to have to f**king work!

Will be checking in on here from time to time, keep the updates coming.

Enjoy the game peeps....up the wazoo's!!!

 

[Hardyman's Yugo]

All one way this game. Looks like a decent contingent from Wigan there

 

[Mr Drag]

That is a fast pitch! Egan should love It through the middle!
