[Valheru]

Form suggest warriors but don't they have some epic losing rate in games that kick off 9:30 or later NZ time?

Canberra in a tight one

Yeah, they did have a pretty strong victory last year against the Dragons (so conquered both their Dragons and late NZ-time game hoodoos that night), but I had gone through their late game record via Rugby League Project on that game day thread as below (and checked the games since) showing we don't do well that late at night...


"Also we are playing at 10pm NZ time on Friday, which doesn't bode well for the Warriors either. Was having a look at rleagueproject season summaries earlier, over the last 10.5 seasons (2013-present) we've only won 3/22 games where our games start 9pm or later NZ time (7 of those losses are the annual Melbourne ANZAC fun times)."


Looking at rleagueproject game summaries from that game onwards, we've only had another 3x games after 9pm NZT which actually surprises me (the big win over Dragons above comment was worried about, then Brisbane semi and Melbourne R2 loss this year), so record in late games is now 4/25 in last 11.5 seasons!

 

[Saxon]

Warriors on average score more and concede less than the Raiders.

This game is going to come down to who the ref fists harder.

 

[Wheeled Warrior]

Flip a coin on this one.

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Warriors on average score more and concede less than the Raiders.

This game is going to come down to who the ref fists harder.

Sadly this last line is the criteria for way too many games now.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Get ready for some wackiness

Think Fogarty gets the Raiders home by 4

 

[Leber]

Yeah... Raiders tend to get kissed on the dick by the ref everytime these two play. I assume this will be no different.

That and no CNK and the late kick off makes it bloody tough.

Look, we all know that Warriors get shafted on the regular but Raiders aren't far behind on that front.

 

[Wheeled Warrior]

I agree. Wahs and Raiders get screwed regularly.

 

[Someone2]

Warriors by 6

 

[OzDragon]

I dreamt that Weekes made a break, ran down the field and placed the ball on the sideline 10m from the in goal.

Do with this information what you will

No team this season has had to kick off at 10pm. f**k 9, f**k the NRL

 

[Seiffert Oval]

The loser of tonight can confirm their Mad Monday plans. The winner can pretend they will still make to Top 8.
