[Vic Mackey]

Tigers have been belted twice this year and bounced back with wins the following week on both occasions. Hoping they can make it a third.

The teams will know Saturday evening if this game means anything. I can't tip this one at all. Probably go warriors purely cause it's at home. Although in saying that we've generally had a pretty good record over there.

 

[Clifferd]

I just really don't know

Both teams were shit house last week

 

[Fufu Andronez]

honestly this game could be anything. it could be 1-1 or 48-46 or 50-0.. Either way

 

[Rhino_NQ]

the warriors chances are done so they will put it together and win by 30

 

[Hawkins]

Tigers.

Warriors season is over right?

 

[Leber]

Warriors will win this game by a massive margin.

Then, with the top 8 to play for, will shit the bed against the eels.

Nothing surer.

This game could well be a dead rubber by kick off time. Both sides will be rooting for the Panthers on Saturday. If the Panthers win, one of these sides will stay alive into the final round.

The Tigers without their talisman collapsed badly last week. The Warriors seemed to put up a fight but were flogged in Townsville anyway. Johnson was very quiet. He didn't seem to want to run much.

I'm thinking the Tigers might cause an upset here, in all likelihood to no avail.

 

[GongPanther]

Tedesco,I think would not have made any difference.

The Warriors will find their mojo with Johnson ripping them apart.

Warriors by 16+.

Well the panthers scored 18 points directly off rankin mistakes so if played he would have made a difference. We still wouldn't have won and you have a squad for a reason so can't use it as an excuse.

[alien]

the big warriors forwards should be too much for the tigers forwards. the panthers forwards showed that the tigers forwards can be ran over quite easily. the warriors need to make sure they have a good completion rate though

 

[Vic Mackey]

ohh look souffs have won two games and the other coward shows his face in the main forum again to talk shit.

have you popped into the tigers forum just to vote them losing 13+ again?

 

[alien]

did the panthers forwards not run over the top of the tigers forwards?
how many panthers tries were scored by forwards? quite a few.
no need to get all emotional over my truth telling

 

[alien]

have you popped into the tigers forum just to vote them losing 13+ again?

yep, and they did lose by 13+

Warriors will win this game by a massive margin.

Then, with the top 8 to play for, will shit the bed against the eels.

Nothing surer.

As a Warriors fan, I think this is a likely outcome

That mean Panthers beat the Tits to make it happen. I like your way of thinking.
Warriors by 24.

Taylor needs to swallow his pride and get Farah back for this game.
