LOL @ you claiming cayless and the 2 shirnaks as injured players, fulton is easily replaceable same as ayshford, they are hardly in the class of hayne tahu creagh boyd jeremy smith morris cooper and so on.
the only players we are truly missing is moltz galloway and tnt, and the sharks are parras bogey team like we are to them and penrith and the raiders to the dragons
friday night at a true home ground against a team that barely wins away from home, if we lose this game we wont make the finals this year, ill sig bet that

:laughing: still sounds like excusses to me…..bogey teams....
Warriors are a bogey team for the Wests Tigers....IMO we have no excuss if we lose
Class wasn't the issue....Cayless Al and Jason are injured.....
Sure the Dragons where hard hit......that was a little sarcastic
But Para...If they where to lose Hayne and Tahu for extended periods.....heaven help them

Every game is important. At this stage of the season nobody is sitting pretty, but its still only mid season. Dont get too worked up yet. The line coming out of the camp will be the importance of back to back wins for confidence and to find some consistency in form. Still a long way to go and we are right in the mix.

The Warriors have only lost 2 away this season (won 2 and lost 2) and the 2 lost were against melbourne the week after the debacle (none was going to beat Melbourne that game) and against the gold coast in round 1 in a close match (that from memory they could easily have won).
People seem to underestimate the Warrriors but on their day they can beat anyone. There a bit like us in being consistently inconsistent, both from week to week and minute to minute within a game. There attack, if on fire, is expansive and free flowing and hard to stop.
Always a danger game for us. I'm confident though, that if we turn up we'll win.

Considering how close we have come to making the 8 for the last three seasons I'd be amazed by anyone who doesn't realise by now that EVERY SINGLE GAME is huge. There have been so many of them during those last three years that have destroyed our chances of finishing in the top 8.
We have a very difficult finish this year, with games against the Sea Eagles, Sharks, Rabbits, Panthers, Eels, Storm and Titans over the final seven weeks. Including the Storm, every one of those teams save for the Sharks are top eight teams.
So please, don't anyone say that this Friday's game ain't huge.

If the Fonz does not pick a complete bench of forwards, **they will put 30 on us easily**.
We need complete rotation of blokes who are gonna tuck the ball under their arm and hit it up at a zillion miles an hour and do the hard yakka.
If not, they will absolutely flog us.
Our worst enemy leading into this game may well again be Tim 'The Fonz' Sheens. As per usual.

Bug….start a pick the score thread and be done with it......they fell in a heap and Souff were woeful....
Fifita, Moors. Dwyer will be the bench players used.....not to bad if you ask me....

We definately need four big blokes on the bench. We can't keep carrying wingers who play 3 minutes.
It is a must win game as it is a home game. We really need to win all of our remaining home games this year to be a chance of finals. This should be a little easier in that all remaining home games are Campbelltown and Leichhardt.

That's rubbish. The Warriors love big boof heads trying to run hard at them - they will match it with a side (ala Souths) who tries to do that to them. But when a team gets off-loads, changes of direction, lateral ball movement with players coming through giving the ball runner options - the big Warriors defenders struggle. Running the ball into their brick wall will see us lose by 30! We need to kick early in our own half and play the game in their territory - they seem to make plenty of errors bringing the ball out when under pressure. We need 2 or 3 hit-ups up the middle and on the edge of the ruck, then spreading it wide with players in motion that will put their often lazy side-ways defense in two minds. If we can do this in attack - we need a strong up and in defense on them to put them under pressure.
I'm quietly confident if we turn up to play footy, we will put them away.

It is a toss of the coin game for mine. The Warriors on their day are certainly no mugs.
The performance is more important to the result if that makes sense.
If we win it does not make us contenders and if we lose it does not make us pretenders. Alot of season still to travel

Yeah Innsaneink, why so harsh?
I think we will lose and by a fair margin, I truly hate to say.
I can see line breaks galore around the middle of the park from inside balls and plenty of offloads leading to a mountain of second phase play. I'm sure yet again we are about to witness a very light bench that wont help at all.
I really hope we don't let them get to a lead as I suspect morale is still quite low, regardless of what Sheens say's there was plenty to notice in the body language of our 5/8 last Friday night. Even my wife who knows nothing about the Tigers turned to me and said he looks like he wants to tell him to get the hell of him when Farah jumped on Marshall's back after that late try.

Warriors beat Souths and we got rag dolled against Souths,wet track and we are a team that struggles to put back to back wins together. So if I was a betting man I would be leaning towards the Warriors.
The one thing in our favor, the warriors are the only team that is more inconsistent than us. I really think we needed a hard fast track to be a big chance anyway IMO not impossible but unlikley

You made a similar prediction before the Knights' game.
Hope you're as accurate this week as you were last week…
