Get Walsh to panic and start chasing the game, mistakes will come.

Fascinating game with some key match ups.....
Haas vs AFB
Tohu vs Carrigan
SJ vs Reynolds....

If Pompey and Berry will play as well as they did against the Knights then we may nullify their back 5 which is where on paper they have an advantage.

Hopefully we get a fair deal in the officiating and deal with the late start and travel. I think there will be enough Warriors support at the game to even up the home advantage!

If we replicate the effort from last week anything could happen. Can't wait!
 
Potential for a high intensity event. If your team advances, are you confident of beating Pemriff?

I'm not confident at all of beating Penrith.

The only scenario where I can see us winning is if we complete at least 85%. Our defence and our attack is good enough, but our completion rates aren't. We make too many errors and if you do that against a side like Penrith, Cleary's kicking game and their excellent line speed will keep you pinned down your end and they will strangle you out of the contest.

I see the unpredictable as a key weapon to destabilizing the robocop defence and shapes of the Panthers. Or the QLD vs NSW model of chase hard, compete for everything, tackle like buggery, wear THEM out. I read an article about how AI can analyse your shapes etc and do all the video work for you so having unpredictable moves or "new" moves might help.
 
Klein has been dropped for the weekend to the bunker.

Gee will ref Pen vs. Melb, and we will get Gerard Sutton with Klein in the bunker.

I don't follow how with we got with refs, so make of that what you will.

Would have liked Gee for a third week as we adjusted to the ruck on Saturday, but didn't think we'd get the luxury of three weeks in a row.

From the last article I could find we had our highest winning percentage last ten years under Gerard Sutton 63%
 
The game in Brisbane is a night game with a forecast of 17 degrees at kick off, so not sure relevance of what your saying here
The bears spread the ball at every opportunity played a fast game
If Bronco s do the same and yeah it’s 17 degrees it will be a challenge for us
 
If there is one possible weakness in the broncos backline it is Staggs.

Now hear me out lol.

Pompey. He's been more cold than hot this season. But, He dominates smaller opponents (Gagai for example) using his size well. When he is on.
Staggs is susceptible to a long limbed person fending him to the chest lol. He gets run over quite a bit close to the line. If Pomps is switched on. There is a possibility he causes Staggs a major headache.

But then.....Lol, Staggs is explosive. That muscular build of his can fend like a monster as well. He runs hard af. And has good speed. Which could expose Pompey. Especially given to much room to run. We know Pompey is slow to wind up. Some say slow in general lol.

Staggs is prone to a brain snap. Can get lazy on dee. And caught out with backdoor plays where someone like SJ could exploit him.

A match up to keep a close eye on for me.
