[This Year?]

This has the potential to be a cracking game if the Titans can contain the Warriors halves and 2nd rowers.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Nice to see the Tits get some Ws up, but hard to get excited over beating Saints and a depleted eels who gave up. Wahs got back in their grove last week and expect that to continue this weekend. NZ by 22.

 

[Evil_Mush]

We have had some poor form against the Titans in recent years - from the 66-6 embarrassment in 2024 to not having beat them at home since 2019. Hopefully we don't let the pedal off, and learn from whatever went wrong against the Tigers coming off some exciting wins.

By no means a guarantee, but hoping for some more brutality

 

[Someone2]

Warriors by 16

 

[League Unlimited News]

Brimson and Randall out for Titans

 

[Byron Titan]

Randall no great loss. Titans by 4

 

[Pugzley]

Up the Wahs!!

 

[Warriors Fever]

Charnze in for taine we will see if this works. Got all th hallmarks of an upset with players returning from injury. If the warrriors go in with a “this will be easy” attitude, then an upset will be sprung.

 

[Bazal]

JWH is clearly here as some kind of Roosters TPA rort....

"Last week was one of the best performances I've ever seen the Warriors perform."

 

[Diesel]

I’ll take Wahs by 1 in GP, but preferably by 10 in regulation time

 

[Bazal]

I think this thread might be on the quieter side but I'm pre-drinking navy strength gin for cricket pres night so there will be shit posting

 

[Diesel]

Another quality commentry team calling from the studio

Let the shit posting begin

 

[Bazal]

Ali Leiataua is a big fella but he runs like a 45 year old farmhand chasing a loose steer

 

[Diesel]

AKP happy to score against the Titans

 

[Bazal]

If Tanah Boyd started out as a rice bubble, he's gotta be a cocoa pop by now.

 

[Bazal]

Scratch that Tanah kicked that like a home brand rice puff

 

[Diesel]

Leka and Ali getting involved

 

[Bazal]

AKP with two linebreaks already against the shitter blokes who somehow forced him out is pretty tasty
