🤖 AI Summary

📝 Summary:

Warriors fans anxiously discuss the critical Round 24 clash against the Dragons, emphasizing the must-win nature to secure a top-four playoff spot and arrest a losing streak #4 #7.

User #43 notes the Dragons’ threat as a form team, while others express frustration with conservative tactics and lack of attacking spark.

Your post infers that in previous games they failed to "show some guts"

Which games are you referring to & what does "show some guts" mean to you?
No I think most of the time they have played well sometimes though there are players that let themselves down.I was more trying to gee myself up haha.I think this game is a must win to get back to the great run they had to get this far on the table.Im still a solid supporter of them always will be.

My week tends to revolve around the Warriors, and I spend the off season pining for them.

I was oblivious they were playing tonight, which is a bit of a worry. Hopefully just the sign of a busy work week, but probably more that the head knows we are playing to make up the numbers in the 8 now.

They'll need to muscle up tonight. The Dragons have been playing with good energy and abrasiveness this year.
 
Which game was it earlier in the year where our pack went full aggro and was smashing the opponents? From memory Clark, Barney and JFH were really laying in.
Barney sets the tempo. JFH is aggro but he’s not full noise like Barnett. He’d take on an entire team by himself.

But I want to see it tonight from the forwards…can’t let them overrun us. Although just pressure the kickers and that could be enough.

Last nights game Cleary just was Cleary until he started getting pressured at the end. A deep kick v a contestable kick is so much better for the blood pressure
 
The better be an ill in formed rumour

1) Tannah Boyd dropped on a miserable wet weather night for a running half
2) Webster takes out whistle to reporters
3) Ed Kosi shifted to centre where he has never played before
