[God-King Dean]

Warriors by 16.

 

[Bomber]

The Cowboys will once again snatch defeat from the jaws of victory

 

[byrne_rovelli_fan82]

Warriors by...8

 

[African Monkey]

Cowboys by 14.

 

[nzwarriors60]

Warriors by 42

 

[African Monkey]

In fact, I think that the Cows will score under the posts in the dying moments of the game. Cows by 20.

 

[lockyno1]

If Witt plays, NZ will win. If he doesn't Cowboys should win

 

[African Monkey]

Whatever.

 

[byrne_rovelli_fan82]

LOL @ Locky...as much as I love Wittty, there are 12 other players!

 

[Shorty]

If Witt plays, NZ will win. If he doesn't Cowboys should win

This isn't about who gets in the backroom with you at the end of the night Locky...

 

[byrne_rovelli_fan82]

Btw the Warriors have been named

 

[lockyno1]

LOL @ Locky...as much as I love Wittty, there are 12 other players!

None are better than Witty! Clearly coach nuffie thinks he can win a game without a goalkicker!

 

[lockyno1]

This isn't about who gets in the backroom with you at the end of the night Locky...

Witty is married!

There's the teams.
As Cows fan I'm pretty happy with that team and dare I say have a INCH of hope lol.
By the way,I don't pay much that much attention to the Warriors switches but I would think that the team would benefit far more with:
6.Witt
7.Fien

Rovelli just seems to lose the bundle in general,but Witt plays well when inside/outside someone dominant.

 

[African Monkey]

Witty is married!

Haha.

 

[wittyfan]

Cowboys should be able to end their drought here. How many losses has it been? 8 or 9?

 

[African Monkey]

8 and haha Witt's been dropped.

 

[Rovelli]

It's a game that frankly the Warriors should win.

That said, I can envision JT ripping us to shreds.

 

[Beavers Headgear]

9 losses for Cows

Am waiting for the odds to come out, and if i can get more than $3.50 for the Cows i will be all over it. Is the sort of the games the Warriors traditionally lose
