[Dr Crane]

this game is going to be soooo sh*t!

 

[NZ Warrior]

I'll watch the Juniors, if they are televised (I doubt it). But I'm not sure about this game.

Both teams will be trying to out-sh*t each other. Prepare for dropped balls and crappy attacking plays. The ref will start penalising both teams for sh*tty last tackle kicks.

REF: *blows whistle* "Fien, I've seen you put up the mid-field bomb five times already. I've had enough, go for 10 in the sinbin"

FIEN: "But it's all that I know how to do!!!"

 

[Timmah]

Canberra and Melbourne go in entirely different directions from last night - Storm face the 1st placed 'Dogs, while Canberra play the out-of-form Warriors... I think I'll tip a draw here... :lol:

FOX Sports will be televising the Toyota Cup at 11:45am.

 

[NZ Warrior]

Nice, I'll certainly be watching that game then.

Raiders by 24

Not because i think the raiders are that much of a better team, just that if they score a couple of quick tries, they'll turn it on. I just dont think itll be a close game whoever wins.

 

[wittyfan]

Raiders to win at home.

 

[☆ИITЯO ßOY✯]

I'm a Warriors fan, (obviously) but I think they'll let me down like they did for 6 weeks in a row

Canberra to give Warriors hardcore anal (13+)

 

[aussies1st]

If the Warriors play to their potential they should win. Hopefully they play like they did against the Cowboys then we have a chance.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Fien thankfully isn't playing, so at the very least the signage behind the ingoal won't take a battering.

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Canberra and Melbourne go in entirely different directions from last night - Storm face the 1st placed 'Dogs, while Canberra play the out-of-form Warriors... I think I'll tip a draw here... :lol:

Very subtle, feel free to put the sledgehammer down.

 

[Timmah]

In all seriousness, Warriors by as many as they like.

 

[mongoose]

we must win this if we have any chance of getting this season back on track. I'm affraid we really have nothing this year and a coach who i'm starting to think has no f*cking idea.

 

[LeagueNut]

What's the weather like in Canberra today?

And is it true that Alan Tongue will be missing?

 

[Proud2BeCanberran]

What's the weather like in Canberra today?

And is it true that Alan Tongue will be missing?

It is going to be, according to the Canberra Times, 18 fine and mostly cloudy.

Team News for the Raiders:

Tongue and Carney out.

Thurling to move into Lock, Waddell onto the bench and Croker in the centres.

 

[LeagueNut]

I'll be slightly more optimistic about our chances with Tongue out, but you still never know which Warriors team or which Raiders team will show up.

 

[skeepe]

It's possible Tongue's injury will keep him out for the season. Can it get any worse?

 

[kia ora storm]

This game will be 0-0 at full time.

Dropped balls will be a million and attacking opportunities nil.
