[BuffaloRules]

Footy is back.,,

Think I will make the long trek over to Cambo from the Northern Beaches for only the second time for this one.

Tigers 30-26 winners...

 

[Vic Mackey]

Hopefully it's 35 degrees, those big warriors forwards will tire around the 25 min mark ;-)

Our attack v the sharks was very slick. Moses, Teddy, brooks and Cherrington when he came on combined very well. Jack Littlejohn has looked a capable fill in at 7, bigger body too, looks like he could play in the backrow.

Really depends on how the Warriors play, if they put it together they'll win no matter how well the Tigers play. I'm hoping it will be a typical warriors round 1 performance and Tigers get up 28-20.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Hard one to pick honestly. Warriors have it easily in the bag on paper but why am I so reluctant to just tip them outright?

Because they are the Warriors. I'd have more faith in them beating a potential top 4 side.

 

[Rhyno]

Warriors by 12

Warriors by 18

 

[Big LIMA]

Tigers will rack up a score here.

 

[typicalfan]

Overs is the way to go here. Predicting Warriors 30-28.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

As rubbish as the Tigers lineup looks they have a lot of lateral movers. Something warriors defence hasn't had the best of times with

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Backing the Warriors to prove me wrong, but if they lose, McFadden may just go before Round 2.

Because you haven't heard of any of their players?

Go with your first instinct.

Last week the Warriors were just a prancing in the park.

Tigers will not know what hit them when Johnson runs riot.

Plus the fact that the Tiges have most of their main playmakers out.

It's going to be that much of a bloodbath,I'm too frightened to pick a score.

 

[Rabbits20]

Warriors by 14.

 

[Maroon4life]

Warriors by alot.

 

[Izz]

Warriors to go unbeaten this season! You heard it here first!

Or they'll lose this one by 20.

 

[Incorrect]

Lolohea can't even get a start in the centres ahead of Blake Ayshford??

Or even in the 6 so Johnson can stay in the 7 instead of Robson in 7 and Johnson in 6?

Is McFadden trying to derail the Warriors season early on purpose?? Has he already been told Ivan Cleary will be taking his job by round 6 so he's trying to make it as hard as possible to salvage something for 2016??

So many questions... only McFadden knows the answers....

 

[typicalfan]

Robson will be a good foil for Johnson in my opinion.

 

[mxlegend99]

Some pretty funny selections in that Warriors team. But Johnson, RTS and Luke are in the spine against a pretty weak Tigers side. They should win this game quiet comfortably.

I know Dragons flogged them not long ago. But that's just going to insure it doesn't happen against the Tigers. Tigers will probably player harder and have some better individual performances, with the Warriors getting home on the back of a few class plays from that spine.

 

[Vic Mackey]

With the Tigers having a few players out with injuries/suspensions I really feared this game. However looking at the warriors team on paper its very...meh. Obviously some real stand outs in the 1/6/9/10 but otherwise there's plenty of plods there.

Know the Tigers arent exactly world beaters but I feel a lot more confident of a good showing after seeing the warriors on paper. Tipping a high scoring affair with plent of LOLs and head shaking moments.
