'14 // R13 // Sat // Rabbitohs 34-18 Warriors // nib, Perth

Can't see the Warriors beating the Souths pack or the timezone… close win for the Bunnies I reckon

Lilyman is good enough to play for Maroons
add Mutalino, Matangi, Ikihhifo, Rapira,Havalli, Mateo ..that's the fwds!
Hurrell, Manu, Luamape to boot! :roll:

 

[vvvrulz]

Should be a great game, hard to pick but on form am going to back the Warriors

warriors by 2

Wha? They've got just a big of a pack as anyone, if not the biggest. The Burgesses as well as Kyle Turner, Ben Te'o and Chris McQueen need massive games if we're to get over them.

Not to mention they've got Konrad Hurrell, Manu Vatuvei and David Fusitua in the backs who are huge as it is....

The biggest pack....:lol:

Is that you Wayne Pearce?

 

[God-King Dean]

'those big Warrior forwards....'

 

[BunniesMan]

The size of the warriors pack is a myth and I think it's a myth based on racial grounds. "hmm...they're a kiwi team. They must have a forward pack full of giant maoris!"

They'll beat us but not because of some mythical size advantage.

 

[ram raid]

Never to know what to expect when the Warriors play. If I had to bet I'd be on the Bunnies. Can't wait.

 

[some11]

Too many athletes in the Warriors side, they can't possibly win.

 

[natheel]

Warriors starting to gather momentum. Bunnies will have their hands full I think

Warriors by 14

to many English plods in the souths pack

Fortunately they have some quality footballers in Johnson and Friend.

Pure athletes have a role in the game but they have to be held together by top class footballers.

No. NZ to carry a mediocre Plodkins to victory.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Tomkins for dally m!

Souths will have to improve their ball control and completion rates, they are amongst the worst, if not the worst, in the NRL whereas the Warriors are probably the best of late. If they improve, should be a good match to watch. Glad to see Johnston back and Luke should be better for the run.

 

[jamaman]

Warriors are due for a win against us. They have had a good record against us usually but we've won the last two

That said, Luke is back now and got his legs back in him. AJ should be back in the squad. And the team know Warriors are on a hot streak. Should be a cracker of a match like it was last year

GI will decide the game

Hurrell might decide the game

 

[Evil_Mush]

We've overcome a few timezone & venue hoodoos this year already (v Cowboys in Townsville at 11pm NZT, v Tigers at Westpac, v Raiders at Eden Park), hopefully we can add a night game in Perth to the list!!!

I hope at the very least we are competitive to the end like we have been in pretty much every game since Cappy took over, but a win going into the bye would be epic. Especially after the last couple of soul-destroying capitulations we've seen in Perth while Bluey & Elliott were in charge.

Warriors by 6. Maybe in golden point.

Strong mail going around that Lillyman is being watched this weekend with an eye to origin...

Expect a massive game from him... And also from Te'o and McQueen who would be hearing it also.... So will wanna make sure it's not their spot he's taking.

Mal would want a Lillyman for Sydney .

 

[blaza88z]

What a ridiculous roadtrip for the Warriors, 7 hour plane flight to play in a game that would be 11:30pm back in NZ

 

[BranVan3000]

Is this on at 730 Perth time?

Ridiculous it was perfectly timed last year in the mid afternoon
