God i hope this game goes a little better than last night. Will be taking my 10 month old daughter for her first game of footy - will be nice for her if she becomes as rabid a fan as her old man to be able to say she went to her first game before she turned 1. Lets hope for a sunny afternoon at Brooky, a good crowd to welcome home the Premiers, and a timely return to form.

Capped off with the announcement of Stewarts charged being dropped and David Gallop kissing his own ass.

Warriors will run out of puff towards the end i reckon...they always do. manly will be in it for the whole 80 and if warriors dont get their way they will fall apart towards the end of the game.

Hohaia, Matulino ruled out for Warriors
AAP

Warriors utility Lance Hohaia could miss up to six weeks in the NRL with a knee injury while forward Ben Matulino faces up to three weeks on the sidelines with an ankle complaint.
Hohaia ruptured the posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during Saturday's triumph over Parramatta and will miss between three and six weeks.
Kiwi Test star Hohaia lasted just 19 minutes in the 26-18 win, but scored a try either side of halftime before being forced off with the injury.
Hohaia does not need surgery and should return before the end of April.
Matulino, 20, lasted only 14 minutes against the Eels, and didn't require a scan on a high sprain of his right ankle.
Warriors doctor John Mayhew said Matulino would probably be available again in either the fourth or fifth round of the NRL season.
The Warriors fly to Sydney on Saturday to take on defending champions Manly at Brookvale Oval on Sunday afternoon.

Still have bad memories of that crap performance last year by the Warriors...

 

[Rovelli]

Depth will be tested from the get-go.

Manly's imploding against the Dogs will enpower them this week. First game at Brookie since the GF, they will be fired up.

If we can weather the early storm, we'll be a chance.

And hopefully not that 52-6 debacle last season...

 

[MSIH]

Zero confidence. We usually have the wood on the Warriors, but still. Zero confidence.
