2023 SF Sat - Warriors 40-10 Newcastle @ Go Media

[Warriors Fever]

Odds follow the money. Obviously knights fans are getting on their team

I reckon a few neutrals too would have jumped at that

 

[Ruby Roundhouse]

going for both teams here, hopefully a cracking match for nuetrals

Relax. You won’t just win, you’ll demolish them. Tyson Gamble surely won’t be able to fake another bite to fire them up this time.

Weird. Tyson Gamble was the one who got bit but your the one stinging from it.

$2.5 on TAB is still excellent imo. I know they were lucky to win last week but the Raiders genuinely played well. Only worry for knights is their left side defence that found out a few times by the raiders

I'll be taking this as happiness insurance. $50 (or $100 if I wake up feeling particularly toey) on the Knights. If I'm toey, $240 (it's down to 2.40 on NZ TAB) will buy me enough piss to drown my sorrows. I'd happily lose the money, though.

Not like Newcastle to sweep anything under the carpet.

There greatest ever player was always upfront during his playing career.

Owen Craigie has nothing to do with this

Well with the the form you tip teams they will both lose

Shaun Rudder?

I'm philosophical about this one. Realistically, neither team is going to win the comp. Neither team will get past Broncos next week, so a loss here isn't going to alter the outcome of the comp.

However after 15 years of no finals, all the uncertainty of covid, it would be so important for the fans to get the W here. Fingers and toes crossed.

More than likely true. However, this could be an important step for both sides to gain experience and momentum for a tilt at a title in the years to come.

Ouch!

 

[This Year?]

This will be a very entertaining game.
Good luck to both sides

And if it isn’t there is always the LU game thread.

I cancelled on Saturday afternoon plans because I want to shitpost over a few krakens and a pizza

SJ will play and will lead Warriors to a good win. I think there's a little bit of theatre involved here. Shaun moved to NZ for this very moment. I doubt he'll let a dodgy injury stop him from a do or die moment. Warriors playing the media game.

Though, if i was Webster (which i'm not btw) i'd drop Dylan Walker for Lussick and worst case have Egan in the halves. Still have Jazz to play hooker regardless. Plenty of options.

Warriors will get it done, on the condition they limit Ponga as number one threat.

Up the Kha's

Or Up the Nahs?!?

Lots of people writing off the mighty Knights after they were pushed to the edge by a very enthusiastic Raiders side. Honestly can't wait to watch this one. The two good guys of the comp going at it is the only downside. I don't think either side troubles Brisbane but we can dream.

Knights turn around has been incredible. It's great to watch a team find another gear that nobody predicted and do it consistently. That's why this game is so perfect in a way, both sides have done what many have deemed improbable at the start of the season.

 

[Apey]

We are playing a team who has won 10 on a trot.

Home ground advantage is our only asset. Not confident at all.

Your forward pack is better than ours. Our backs are better. Both have a top tier strike player in the spine. Should be a great game really if both teams don't bring last week's form with them.

Both were predicted to be in the bottom 4 by many (including myself re: Warriors).
