[Apey]

Shaping up as a good game but Warriors will most likely win.

 

[Allstar Knights]

If we turn up, it will be a great game IMO. Forwards have to aim up if we're to win this.

Knights by 2

 

[Bicey_18]

Warriors will probably be too good here... they seem to be our bogey team in recent years.

We have a chance if we show up. It will be interesting to see how strong we are mentally if the game gets tough after versing weak teams like the sharks titans raiders. However we will have confidence which is always handy.

Flip of the coin.

 

[kia ora storm]

Warriors by 10...

 

[Jobdog]

We're a real chance here, but you've probably got to tip the Warriors at home.

 

[VodafoneWarriors1995]

This won't be an easy game. I'm going to go with my heart and tip the Warriors.

 

[matrightyeh]

very tough call maybe warriors by 2

 

[Jubes]

Should be an awesome game, Knights by 1 in golden point.

 

[BunniesMan]

Game of the round. Team that loses this gets chased down by us and misses out on the top 8.

You really should stay off the meth.

 

[RHCP]

BunniesMan provides the lols, as always.

Going to be a tough game. I think we're capable of beating them, the boys must be oozing with confidence at the moment, but beating the Warriors in New Zealand is a very big ask for any side.

Looking forward to this game, should be a cracker.

[alexwilliams_66692007]

If we can beat the warriors at home were a very good chance this year

 

[_Johnsy]

Warriors at home, they;ll get up by 8

[Sean18]

Should be a great game and a high scoring one too. Hopefully the Knights get up but the smart money would be on the Warriors at home.

 

[to_ddeath]

Plenty of points in this one. Think the home side can end the druggos winning run here though...
