Gameday Warriors vs Knights - [Round 4, 2024]

[Zaggo]

I think because of Easter a later time allows people to go to Church before the game.

2pm kickoff is horrible for AU as well.

 

[Dannevegas]

We need that song - it was part of our winning ritual last year. They didn't play it and we lost our first two games.

Why can’t we play till I collapse or something? Something aggressive lol

 

[Pop Dukez]

2) Have been to church

Just got home from church and the bro DWZ was there, beaming a big smile…….hes fuelled up!!

 

[mrblonde]

The peril of posting any pre-game rituals, of course, is that it gives Webby and the boys a Get Out Of Jail Free card if they play like shite.
We'll be doing a Spanish Inquisition on any member and their adherance or non-adherance to their pre-game rituals in the event of any loss before we do the ritualistic historically followed It Was The Shitehouse Coach's Fault dance....

 

[Roadrunner]

Working til 7 out in the orchards down here in the BOP so will have to watch the delayed coverage at 8 on TV.Boys shouldn't let me down but I'm going 1 to 12 as we build slowly towards moving up the ladder.Enjoy the game everyone.

 

[Stalefish540]

Should have been 4pm kick off, not 6pm imo.

I, for one, will thoroughly enjoy a 12pm kick-off today. But 10am would have been even better!

 

[John Nick]

I will be watching the NSW CUP and pre loading for the Warriors game.
Warriors to win and AFB to score along with dwz for $200.
Go the Warriors

 

[Wrighty]

Don't remember seeing the usual who's better in what position post?

Ok here is the analysis for this week but I am building in a new feature of naming N00bs on either side and subtracting 0.5 points

1 Fullback Advantage Knights. Yes I know Roger is a former Dally M but he will be a bit rusty relative to one of the premier full backs in the world and reigning Dally M.
Wings Warriors as we have Dallin
Centres Knights as they have Best minus 0.5 of a point for Lucas
Halves Warriors
Starting Props - Even - I know I said this midweek and it was challenged but I have respect for the Saifitti's
Starting Hooker - Warriors
Second Row Knights
Lock - Warriors

Bench is close as they have Brailey as the better replacement hooker
But overall +1 to Warriors based on Jazz having a good outing last week

Knights Advantages - 2.5
Warriors Advantages - 4.0

I think this could come down to who has the better bench. So ideally Niukore and all of the bench need to play well.

 

[Wrighty]

Also with regards to the second row match up of
Kinghts: Pearce Paul and Frizell
vs
Warriors: Ford and Capewell

Our second row needs to aim up to be as good as them if not better. Frizell isn't who he used to be and Capewell is capable of greater heights and just warming up his engine for the season.

 

[Zaggo]

Centres Knights as they have Best minus 0.5 of a point for Lucas

Lucas is a deadset spud who is really a backrower.

Best is very good when his side is rolling, but struggles to get involved when they're on the back foot. Definitely capable of breaking a game open but don't often see consistent efforts from him.

 

[Inruin]

Knights pair are more damaging runners, Warriors are more work horses imo.

 

[run_it_str8_again]

It's no guarantee and no easy beat Newcastle team. Our greatest enemy is "clocking off" combined with "dumb footy". Stick to the plan. Probably a four point victory but hoping to wallop them and turn the corner today for a complete performance.

@Worried2Death you might remember that I posted on my game day OCD rituals last week.

This week I have
1) Nearly done the laundry - It is on the line waiting to dry then I need to take it down and put it away before game time
2) Have been to church
3) Need to package a gift to mail to my nephew overseas who had leukemia as a little boy. I need to pack it today and write a letter to go with it. Will send it tomorrow.

Sorry to hear about the nephew, aroha.

I am pretty organised on game day too most of the time. Sorting out beer and food at the right time in the right order.

If I ain't getting delivery, food has to be timed right. A pot of food that can be reheated is a good option when there is a NSW cup game on, alas today I find myself having to cook during the NSW cup game.

Got some potatoes that need eating, so Oven chips is the plan, little bit of chicken Salt and Paprika, home made Aioli, home made simple beef mince, egg, cheese and bacon burgers.

The only ritual or OCD thing I have about game days is picking a Janfin by 6. Rarely comes through but it is just one of those Warriors things going back years.

It largely depends on which Newcastle team shows up today..

Canberra brought their A game last week. They weren’t going down without a fight. Tricky Ricky made those loses last year personal.

If we get the same from the Knights watch out.

On the bright side the Knights aren’t stacked with Kiwis out to prove a point

Warriors +13!

 

[Beastmode]

0/4 last few days. I'll have a deep dive now

This season has been costly

 

[janfin]

Sign is up ,neighbours have been warned. Let’s keep following the NSW cup effort .You’re got this Warriors .

Great conditions for a running game! Over 30 should be a winner!

 

[1995warriorsfan]

I understand there are no changes for the Warriors

I understand there are no changes for the Warriors

Wow thanks nuggets.

Pretty amazing.

Pretty much shuts down all the conspiracy theories about Webster and team naming - mind games.

No mind games, the team naming is clearly based off the medicos projections....which is a relief, because I do not like made up theories, I prefer to read Warriors news at face value.

CNK will highly likely be back next week then.

Interesting CHT in for Lussick. Egan must be 100%.
