Big test for us here up against a red hot Warriors team.

A couple of things of interest for me.

How will our goal line defence cope with in form guys like Johnson and Locke? Little nippy guys who can slot through a tiny gap. I don't like how we stand flat-footed as was the case against Penrith yesterday. These two could create a bit of havoc.

With the Warriors playing at home in round 20 they'll be fresh with being at home for two weeks whereas we need to make the trip across. Not a huge thing but can play a part.

Been really impressed with the combination Jono and Feki have been building for a few weeks now. Hopefully they can cause a bit of trouble on the left.

Hopefully we at least get Lewis back and possibly Gal and Tupuo?

Looking forward to watching this at the local RSL at 3pm over a beer or two.

Cant wait, its 5pm EST isnt it? Am hopefull if we get troops back.W:hopinge would have a pretty good record against them wouldnt we? Can't let them start strong,set them back with an upmoving defense (Flat foot comment spot on) and hopefully an opening quick score or two, and no clocking off in the 70th.

It will be a triple header for us on fox starting at 10.30 with the 20's then after that game we have the Reggies playing Wyong Roos in the NSW Cup also live then we have the main game, big day on the piss

Tough game for us, I wonder who will make way for Gal, Toops, Lewis & Beau if they come back in, I know Flanno loves Pom but Lewis might come back in at centre for him?

It sucks, all the teams we have on the back end of the season are finding great form. This game's gonna be super tough.

I'm actually confident we can win this game. As long as we don't throw stupid passes that somehow end up with shaun johnson streaking away to score.

I can't remember a game where we haven't done that at some stage during the game...

Warriors seem to be more consistent than in the past. We need another Carney blinder and some more Gordon magic ( huge man crush on this dude at the moment) any info on who from our injured brigade might return this week??
Think Graham could do some damage against this lot when they start to get leg weary!

I'm a bit concerned about this game. The Worriers have been flying under the radar chalking up 7 wins from 8 games.

WE just need to be head strong and play hard basic football, with no silly stuff.

It's going to be a great test for us and I'm looking forward to watching this game.

Close one, Sharks by 4
