Yeah i give them a good chance,

They are a bogey side imo, when they are hot they are something special, but have an off day or mussle up to them, they are crap

[Capital_Shark]

I give the Warriors a good chance. Regardless of how much they try and deny it, Thurston and Bowen are the North Queensland Cowboys. The rest is just filler, which is event when the team is in defense, they're dreadful, but they can score points so it doesn't matter much. Not saying thats reason enough to wright the Cowboys off though cause Penrith in '03 pretty much conceded each time they didn't have the ball - still won the comp.

Warriors pack is superior, no doubts about it. And that doesn't change when Price and Rapira come off, seeing as they probably have the best bench in the comp with Tuimavave and Lauaki in top form. So against the QLD Cup forwards the Cowboys have, there is no reason a good platform can't be laid by walking over the top of the Cowboys, with Fien and Gatis causing mayhem out of dummy half. Which all should set up well for their halves - but this is where I see a major weakness for the Warriors; I dunno if Witt and Rovelli can convert into points often enough to cover the points the Cowboys WILL score.

No way this game is certain for either team. Can't wait for it.

Warriors as someone said are a bogey side although thats mainly at Mt Smart but still.
Im surprised the Cowboys are near being favourites let alone actually being favourites.
Well dreadful in terms of defence is true for the most part but they have improved somewhat.
Cowboys havent really been known as a team for their defence.

[Super Cronk]

Yeah i dunno, the Warriors just arent consitent enough and havent really proven themselves much against decent sides.

I dont think the weather will play a part in the decision at all.

Hey Minibeave, I know you're only new to the Gold Coast but I'm pleased to inform you that we have our own airport here - Coolangatta. No need to go all the way to Ballina to catch a plane.

[Poida]

[Poida]

Well what a game.
Cowboys dreadful goaline defence but was great defence elsewhere.
Some great football by the Cowboys

[Super Cronk]

Guess i was wrong about the Cowboys coming out and smashing the Warriors, they are giving it a go.

[Poida]

Congrats Matt Bowen for breaking club record of 21 tries for the year. Has 22 now

[Poida]

Sensational performance by the Cowboys
Defence was better, Payne absolutely dangerous. We went on after JT and Bowen left the field with a try.
Bring on Manly We can beat them
