Finals Week 1: Panthers vs Warriors

[sup42]

This game clashes with all blacks.

True.

Against the Pumas.

The only Union fans that will prioritise that over the final are the group that won't watch Warriors games at all.

 

[Matthew Ellis]

Kikau in some doubt. X-Ray today. Unsure of the injury.

Has Kikau been carrying an injury for awhile? He hasn't been getting the post contact metres he was getting in the middle of the season. He's been going down a bit to easily.

 

[OldPanther]

True.

I'll have to take your word for it sonce you probably understand the dynamic better.

Maybe so but. Stay home watch the NRL and IQ RU and watch it after

Kikau will surely play even if not 100%.

Kearney is still naming Hiku at centre. Granted he has bounced back a bit in attack but defensively he still has his problems. Demons will still be present and Kikau is the key ingredient here.

You just start him off the bench. CHN starts and play him the last 50 mins

Any reason the code isn't working?

No excuses for not turning up to the game on saturday panther fans homebush is just 25mins down the m4.The draw has opened up for us nicely we will stay in sydney next week either playing chooks or sharks at Allianz stadium and if souths can knock off the injury hit storm we will stay in sydney week 3.So get your arses down to anz and lets cheer the boys to victory

 

[Iron Lion]

You can see it because you are a Warriors fan.

We know after seven long miserable years that Kiwis will flock to this game on mass.

Not only have the Warriors fans not seen a final for seven years, they have not had a team to be proud of for that long.

The Kiwis will form a massive raucous crowd there is zero doubt about that, even their away games in Sydney this year the Warriors mob have been clearly audible on the telly in those big stadiums.

Hopefully Panthers get on board it would make for a great atmosphere,

Lock it in.

That's correct, Expect a mass of warriors supports to flood the ground. Kiwis have waited 7 years for a finals return, I expect the warriors and the fans will front big time for this game. AB's will be for once a rare and easy 2nd place for Kiwi viewers.

Also Panthers better not be counting on being the fitter team because they most likely will not be. This is the fittest side in warriors history, players fat graphs lowest and PB's highest. They won't fade one bit.

I finally worked out the tickets @franklin2323 but they are an isle apart due to sold out. Oh well. At least we know the Panthers fans are showing up.

Warriors are very fit.

The Warriors have had an outstanding season. They have won a lot of credibility and respect.

But can they now go to another level and perform in the semis?? How many of their team actually have semi final experience??

This is where we have the edge on them.

That section is I doubt we get more than 10k there that

Thats my preferred option for the rest of the season honestly.

I agree

Corey is gone to the Dogs.

And? 2019 ain't here yet baby.

I figured going back to reserves meant he was done for this year. Especially carrying whatever injury he has into finals.

 

[PenrithPanther45]

Good chance of lots of rain on Saturday but showing it may clear up in time for kick-off.

Clubs decision ultimately but never been a fan of this. You play your best 17 and I think he is in it. Unless there is something else at play here.

Reminds of the Peachey talk earlier in the year. Tyrone walks into any rugby league 17 in the world. If you're playing good footy then get picked. Especially when your season isn't over yet.
