NRL 2018

I just read that. Outstanding scheduling.
But i guess given the other constraints, Warriors fans were the easiest to overlook.
-
@bovidae The NRL couldn't have rigged the draw a bit to ensure the Warriors don't go head-to-head with the ABs?
I'm actually going to go the game, my league tragic mates nagged me enough, so I'll record the ABs and head straight home to watch it - I will punch anyone who tells me the score in the kisser. TBH, if the ABs were playing Oz or the Boks I wouldn't go to the game.

I’m gonna love all the Aussie league media talking up the Panthers all week. Cleary is their new darling and the same ol cliches will come out about the Warriors. And of course we will only be a hope if Aussie Blake plays!
Warriors by 6.
-
Only thing I'm worried about is Mallony being back in the mix. If we get our shit together we can make life hard for him and Cleary but if they get a bit of front foot ball...
Super glad we dodged the Broncos, they are on the up form-wise.

If they can win a premiership from 8th will be a magnificent effort ,
Basically have to win 4 games in consecutive weeks in Australia,
Tough ask
-
@kiwiinmelb weren't we the first team to make the finals from 8th? This would just be one better!!

Our away record is actually pretty good this year. Won our first 3 games on the road this season.
Also saw somewhere that of the top 8, we had the hardest draw this year and had played 5 of the other 7 top 8 teams twice. No other team in the 8 had to do that. Panthers the softest draw with only having to play 3 of the other 7 teams in the top 8 twice

Pretty sure we were minor premiers the first time we made the GF and the second time maybe 5th going into finals. In 2011 we got smoked by the broncos in the first round but because of our ranking managed to get a second life when it use to be 1 v 8 2v 7 etc

Pretty sure beat the storm in the opening final 1v8 , but didnt make the grand final ,
Storm recovered to make the grand final but got thrashed by Manly
-
@kiwiinmelb ah, must have crossed the streams! Knew we did something good from 8th tho!
-
2008 we made the run from 8th but fell one game short of the GF (beat Storm, beat Roosters and lost to Manly)

look, superfan, just because we haven't all been at the front of the stand, in our 1996 vintage Warriors shirt, face painted, trying to cover Simon Mannering in slobbery kisses, doesn't mean we haven't been riding this fucking train right along with you. Some of us have just been in the dining car.
