Before we begin, let's start with a bit of humour:
My daughter wants the new iPhone for her birthday. I told her she will get one as long as she has good grades, does her chores, and follows the house rules. Otherwise she will get a cheaper phone. It's my way or the Huawei.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Man and wife are checking out of a hotel. The man notices the bill includes a $50 fee for use of the swimming pool. He tells the hotel clerk they didn't use the pool. The clerk replies, "That's not the issue sir, it was there all the time for you to use."
"OK", says the guy and proceeds to pay the clerk $100 less than the bill.
The clerk says, "Wait a minute sir, this amount is $100 short."
"No it's not", says the guy, "I'm charging you $100 for having sex with my wife."
The clerk is shocked and says, "Sir I can assure you I did not have sex with your wife."
The man replies, "That's not the issue, she was there all the time."
Welcome to a clash that pits 3rd v 12th. After a first up loss, the Bears won 3 in a row before handing the Bombers their first win last week. So another win over one of this season's cellar dwellers looks to be a good bet. Then again, after the Roys' remarkable 25 goal turnaround (lost to the Rats by 10 goals, and then smashed the Dragons by 15), who knows what mood the sim will be in this week? On the other hand, the Warriors have lost their last 3 games, so they're obviously desperate to turn their form around. If the Furies knock off the Bombers, the Warriors might find themselves anchored to the foot of the table, so that's surely enough incentive to pull off a win here. Let's look at who played well for both sides last week, as well as the players who might be on the brink of being delisted if they don't pull their finger out, and start performing.
Warriors
Who’s hot
Piggy Smalls: 19 possessions & 4 goals
Tonga Bob: 13 hit outs, 26 possessions & a goal
Who’s not
Mofra: 1 kick
TheInjuryFactory: 6 possessions
Bears
Who’s hot
Tandy: 17 possessions, 5 tackles & a goal
Test Tickle: 21 hit outs, 15 possessions & a goal
Who’s not
Rookie Pick: 1 possession
Senor M: 5 possessions
Who wins?
Luckily I'm not in the qooty tipping this season - last season I was so bad, that at one point in the season, I tried to pick my nose. I missed, and nearly poked my eye out!!! So please take my prognostication on this one with a grain of salt, but I'll say the Bears will get the job done by 21 points.
Captains please note: The deadline for team sheet submission is Thursday 11:59 PM Perth Time
