It's always risky business backing the Warriors away from Mt Smart but today is the day where they present some value outside NZ IMO. The Panthers and their home ground record over the past 2 seasons has been atrocious, the loss of their leader and go forward Petro obviously absent due to Origin duties is going to hurt the home team as well. Warriors on the other hand get Ropati and Wiki back for this afternoon, Warriors to cover their first game of the season away from home and catching the +4.5 gets my nod today.
