Gameday Sydney City Roosters v NZ Warriors - [Round 1, 2026]

[Lance155]

I don't think Boyd has it in him to breakdown a Trent Robinson coached (and stacked) team. The way will win it will be a lot of passing in the middle fowards and really stretching their D

 

[3rdstriker]

If Ali doesn't show up tonight and Tanah still needs Heimlich manoeuvres then I will come back here and quote myself for my bad prediction that they will both fire and our attack will be devastating against the chooks tonight.

What will you do if Tanah, Ali, and Dwz all don't show up?

 

[Bluecat]

Warriors 12 and under. I was tempted by the Janfin but I'm not confident we will win by that much. Or even if we'll win. But I can't bet on the Chooks.
We're fielding the same team for the first few rounds that couldn't get the job done last year so hopefully the younger players have come on in leaps and bounds over the off season.
But 30 years says we can win. We're a bit like Wellington. You can't beat us on a good day

Just getting this one in like I do every year on Roosters GameDay

Let's go boys, unleash the fury!

 

[Rick O’Shay]

Don't really know what to expect. Trials said nothing and we saw the form guide go out the window last night.

As long as we are competitive and grind, Janfin special

And please God, no injuries

All hell breaks lose in the after-match thread

 

[miket12]

After the week I've had, I don't care if we only win by one point in the ugliest game of league ever.... just get it done boyz!!!!

Nice sunny day today. Looking forward to attending the game. Let's go Warriors!

 

[Sammyw]

if metcalf and barny were playing id tip us, have nil faith we get it done without those two. our edge defense leaves alot to be desired and i fear we wont have enough in attack to break them down.

 

[FormerlyJamesW]

Lets go, boys!

This year's the one!!!?

 

[sydneywarrior92]

Game hasn't even started and doom and gloom has already begun. People already laying the groundwork for blaming TB should we lose this. FFS give the bloke a chance. He's had an entire off-season to make this team his own. Let's see what he can do before throwing him to the wolves.

The oracle that is G Alexander hasn’t changed during the off season. Still putting the boot into the boys(again). Ennis is a bit more reserved

F Greg.

I’m most disappointed in the 14 warrior “supporters” predicting a win

 

[sydneywarrior92]

Only when we win the comp will anyone respect us!

Even when we were minor premiers in 2002, we were like 4.00 outsiders against cronulla in that prelim final. We will always be the little brother. We just need to accept that and focus on what we can control: our own performances.

 

[WAsupporter]

Only when we win the comp will anyone respect us!even then I have my doubts

Even then I have my doubts

Feel SJ is trying to hard…

Boys come out to warm up for first time in 2026. They look on! Love the new training shirts too.
