Warriors win last weekend may just lift this match out of the cripple fight category

Still, with the halves from both sides on show, it could easily sneak into that again

Warriors by plenty

 

[wittyfan]

With Ravs back in form, the Warriors should win this one comfortably.

 

[Timmah]

Name change to Ravvyfan soon?

 

[wittyfan]

:lol: No.

Ch9 setting the Warriors up for a fall - they'll use this game as an excuse to not put us on again with the reasoning that the Warriors don't rate so they won't bother.

I'm looking forward to this - first night game at Mt Smart this year.

With Ravs back in form

when,,, where ???

the bunnybros are going to get their little cotten tails kicked all over Mt Smart Stadium.

Warriors by 55

 

[Rovelli]

Warriors SHOULD win comfortably and improve their woeful points difference.

Depends who we lose to SOO. Tate, Price?

We should still win.

 

[byrne_rovelli_fan82]

Ah we should, but backed-in-the corner-bunnies could mean two things:

1- their that low in the dumps they get wasted again,

2- they 'bounce' back.

which team turns up? Rather, which Warriors team turns up to! haha

 

[Fast Eddie]

I'm actually not as confident as I should be.

 

[-Dr.J-]

They suck at Ericcson. I'm thinking the bunnies are due but I doubt it'll be this week. One potential threat for the Warriors is their lack of defensive size and experience in the available options with Tate gone. Un less the bunnies find a way to play with some heart though they'll keep putting out the same effort weekly and there was none on display this week.

Warriors to win by a medium sized margin.

My biggest concern is the amount of Kiwi's in Souths team. They always lift when coming home and against the Warriors. We only just got over the top of them last year, but it's hard to compare considering how far they've sunk this year. Warriors by 1-12

lol i was thinking the same thing. Almost half a home game for us. Luke, Roy, Vagana, Kidwell, Talanoa, Fa'alogo (and maybe Pettybourne) all returning "home".
