After playing a tough Newcastle pack that lacked Fitzgibbon. How tough are this Broncos pack?

Serious question as I don't watch many other games than ours.

Only really thought Frizz posed a threat on Saturday and maybe Saifiti at times, they were too cooked from last week.

The Bronco's pack don't really have any weak links that i've seen, other than they can have an error through offload or chancing their arm as they attack from anywhere. But they are happy to do that and let you get down field into their 20, then they become a brick wall on their line.

It's gonna one hell of a test on Saturday.

Ok we have officially gone global. I just got interviewed by the New York Times about the season and this weekends game.

They do know that Fonzie talks New Zealand Warriors, right?

Epic - how good mate, well done!

This game could be won and lost by who we name as our 17th man and even who we name as our 18th man

I am going 17th man Lussick and Egan in the second half always gets injured and Sironen is only good as a ten minute substitute.

1 to 13 same as last week
14 Walker
15 Jazz
16 Curran
17 Lussick

Or a really conservative bench would also include a back replacement in case one goes down

14 Walker
15 Jazz
16 Tuapiki
17 Lussick

18 Curran

In this scenario Marata and Ford would play 80 each in the second row

smallest bench in Warriors history won't work. and who does Tuapiki replace? You're expecting an injury.

Walker can cover the backs if required.

Might as well bring back Rovelli to play 7.

Needs to be the same 17 as last week if everyone is fit.

Picking your bench because you expect players to get injured is pretty messed up...

At this stage think they have to run with the same 17

100% agree. Say what you want about the knights pulling up lame on the weekend, but our 17 had mad synergy.

I expect Johnson to be under a lot of kick pressure. Early in the game when energy is high I wouldn't mind a kick on fourth and Egan or TMM to kick one. Just mix it up a little

Also, Walkers bombs looked pretty difficult to take....why don't we put up a couple of them for old Reecey boy.

RW either drops those, or is focusing so hard on them that he'll get cleaned up by the player's coming through.

Most full backs who catch those and have good kick pressure on them wouldn't have a chance to look up before being belted

Good luck Saturday guys.

It's going to be a bloody good match.

 

[Warriorshopeful]

With Kleins cockups in the Storm-Roosters game there's plenty of eyes on referees and so hopefully they'll be at their best this weekend.
I think we can beat the Broncos if we play our game and limit Walsh and Reynolds space. Our forwards will have to be at their best as a few others have said I think whoever wins the middle part of the field will win this one.

These finals games are always won upfront.
Get the ascendancy first and thats half the battle

I think limiting points early is key. Broncos are young and cocky, if they get on the board early they will keep rolling. Keep them to 0 and put 2 tries on them I think we might see them implode a bit

not the players more the game plan the bears used to tire us out in 32 degrees

Potential for a high intensity event. If your team advances, are you confident of beating Pemriff?

Not too sure about. What I did pick up from Tohu's after match interview that they played the last 5 minutes with 12 men and he would be asking questions in the changing rooms.

I thought he looked p’d off. And to raise it like that too….the body language in the press conference wasn’t great either. I just wonder if the season is getting too long. Webster kept talking about the system, trusting the system but I wonder if it’s just getting tiring…..Webster has got so much out of this team though, every player has played above their potential and having the seasons of their lives….Webster looks tired, but he also does have a new baby, two games to go then a good long holiday for everyone…we can do this
