R24 - Warriors V Tigers Gameday

[nswarrior]

Tigers are the 2nd team for many in NZ ever since Gary Freeman played for them.

Great of them to bring the game to Hamilton but after the last 2 performances it will be great to see the Warriors clicking into gear for this one.

I don’t recall the Warriors as such hot favourites for a game with Tigers paying over $5 at TAB. Tigers have been playing better then that and have been unlucky not to come away with a win in the last few weeks.

It has been an amazing season but still nervous for this one as I expect 1 loss in the last month and it all feels like too good to be true.

I saw a short video of the captains run and Harris is looking fitter and I think he will have a big game.

Warriors 34 -16

Go Warriors!!

I don't think we'll see the occasion get to the fans the wrong way, ala ugly pitch invasions like Napier.

Hamilton is just too close to Auckland, they're more used to events such as these.

got to love the Tigpies for being the team showing us some love, and bring a home game over...

that said, this is one we should win by a lot... but they do have the odd good performance in them

 

[nswarrior]

agree - should win this comfortably but ….

How’s the weather looking in Hamilton btw?

Looking great. Though probably will be a heavier dew than what Auckland gets so expect a bit of dropped ball.

Clearly it was northern out of towners invading the pitch in Napier. None of that stuff happened with the Magpies last weekend.

NSW cup boys are playing well.

Shame we conceded a late try in the half through a Vailea jersey grab.

Pretty epic defense in that game till that moment, Volkman kicking like a scientist.

 

[Blair]

Yeah, it is a cliche, but our biggest threat tonight is ourselves.

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Great crowd!

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Have to put these lower ranked teams away if we want to be a threat for premiership

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Can Niukore stay on for a whole game?

 

[Blair]

Egan down early. HIA? He seems OK but not his call.

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Tigers in front of kicker, needed Rabnits jersey on.
Egan has an HIA in his future?

 

[Philip_Smith007]

DWZ gets ankled tapped as Berry sets him up again nicely. Try saved by Tigers.

 

[Blair]

Now Dallin's sore, clutching his right shoulder.

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Harris with a peachy of a pass to "The Clydesdale" Barnett striding through waited for Metcalfe to catch up to score.

0-6 8mins

 

[Philip_Smith007]

And Barnett stuffs up 1st carry off kickoff loses the ball 15m out. 3 in tackle.

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Harris lifts Klemmers leg past horizontal and penalised.
Tigers tackled on the last.

Hero to zero for big Mitch.

Hero to zero for big Mitch.

Got away with it luckily, tigers attack hardly looks electric.
Big props to him for good prescience of mind when he made the break too- you could see he didn’t expect to find himself in the clear at that point but he looked around, summed up the situation and found the supporting player, so often forwards stuff those chances.
