Let’s hope he has a mistake free 50th game !
We’ve got a bit lucky in some wins, maybe due for the luck to turn.
As long as we start well should be able to grind the knights down, they don’t have good memories of coming to NZ.
I wouldn’t be hammering any 13+ margins until our attack starts looking better

I've got a bad feeling about this. Whenever the forum overwhelmingly expects a win, we shit the bed.

Every game needs to be earned. If anything shows how beatable everybody is just see the Dogs and Broncos last week and this week results. We've got to earn it and here's hoping we take no-one lightly.
As a Cantabrian (who has lived away for 20 years), Warriors games in Christchurch are a source of PTSD for me. I was so excited when they came to town, but those first 3 games were painful. Especially 50-4 and 24-6 losses to the Tigers in 04/05. I remember one particular moment (not sure of the year/player) where our player didn't ground the ball/kick it dead in the in-goal and the Tigers burgled it. It was very embarrassing.The ground felt cursed. It has been more even since that date (4 wins from 9 games in total).
Add the curse of Anzac.
The Warriors will need to continue to relentlessly grind as per type this season. As will be the case throughout the season, the Knights have more x-factor in their team, and we need to shut it down before it starts.
A lot of confident fans here, and I can see why. The Knights have been poor against some average teams. I'll be relieved to get a win to be honest. I'm looking forward to the return of a few troops in the next few weeks.

Backstage with Cooper and Matty Johns.
Good poddy and yarn.
35:54 - Matty Johns talks about the ny-nites in Christchurch, "There's been a bit of an incident at training, they said yesterday, the playmakers went up and called the police and said it's weird that there's this like strange white line just going across the field and they said, It's called the try-line." Crack-Up!
Right before that, Jack talks up Croker starting and Lucas is back
Anyhow, it's gonna be a Banger! Up The Wahs!

Yeah this is something I'm really looking for.
Except for the Tigers game, every other game we've conceded the first try. Even more worrying, 4 of those 5 games we've had a try scored against us in the first 5 minutes. Pretty sure Hazleton in the trials also got across very early for them.
Don't know whats going on with those starts but it sure would be handy to not be chasing this game 5 minutes in..
There’s no such thing as an easy game
Helps that we’re at home and Knights on a 3 game losing streak
Hopeful for cold wet windy weather to further dampen Knights misery
The younguns need to bring that energy and enthusiasm for the team. It’s an important factor missing last year
Warriors for the WIN
> 12

I just hope the ref doesn’t ruin the game
Sin bins have a huge impact on the result and it can ruin games
Just let the boys play

If Ford drops the ball tonight I'm blaming you!
I think the ref we have for this game is pretty fair. I'd be sweating real bullets if we drew Klein again especially after the Melbourne game.
just to help you with the bad feeling and play reverse psychology, let me predict Knights 13+.
Yep, you do if you think a 20/40's a good thing.
Warriors by 14. Maybe 20+ if we're blessed with LM or whoever getting 80+% kicking...
Leka to start and get another try. Also Chanal, Ali, Luke and Erin to get one.
Luke to have a conversion bounce off the left upright as he got one off the right last weekend. Maybe to even complete the trifecta of bouncing one off the crossbar.
KP to be fairly anonymous as I think he's been so far. Certainly not been The Man.
One of the benefits of clunky attack is that it means more likely than not our tries are coming through the middle. Goals out wide make me nervous right now.
