KEY POINTS:
Just two more victories from the Warriors' remaining five games and the team will cement a place in the finals; three should see them in the top four given the huge points differential they are amassing.
They have only one other top-eight side to play, Manly at home in four weeks.

Going on form' I think the boys can go all the way, but as quickly as their good form arrived, it can also leave quickly. But confidence is good thing and that's what the boy's are riding on at the moment and it looks like that will continue. Here's hoping for a home Semi Mt Smart will be packed' come all you leaguies and warriors fans' let's support the boys. Finals here we come.

Go the Warriors! Wonder what Mark Geyer has to say about their form now.

Thanks to the salary cap the NRL is such a tight and closely fought competition. To win it is a big ask for any team, & I'd say mission impossible for this Warriors outfit. A combination of these three things are needed to raise the trophy - mental toughness, special players in key positions and a kiss from lady luck. In 2002 we had 2 of the above, luck (bulldogs booted out & few serious injuries) & Mr Jones, only the Rooters had F Fitler too & more of the top 5 per cent. I think we'll again fall short this year but hey isn't it great to have the dream alive.

I give my full support to the Warriors making it all the way to the finals... whether they get there of not!! My family and I are behind them all the way 100 per cent. Go Warriors! We are keeping the Faith!

Great feeling about the club, coming right with no injuries and playing really well. But let's not get carried away, still 5 to play. One at a time required. Top 4 finish would be awesome. Imagine a home semi to a full house? The boys deserve the recognition they are getting, just keep it up. Roosters are the target this weekend. Let's get through that one with a solid win! Go the Pricey and the boyz, superb entertainment and well worth the price of my season ticket that's for sure!

Good joke. The Warriors will make the top eight. It would be pretty hard for them not to from here. But that's as far as they will go. You say that they only have one top eight team left to play, yet ruling out an onslaught from a Freddy Fitler inspired Roosters would be a big mistake. A week later a Titan's team that could potentially have Laffranchi, Rogers and Prince back could also be a huge threat. Easy win's over the Panther's and Raider's is expected but both teams have had the ability to turn what should be rompings around. My top eight pans out like this: Storm, Eagles, Bulldogs, Eels, Cowboys, Warriors, Broncos, Titans or Rabbitohs.

I'm predicting the Warriors to come third on the comp before the finals and then win the toughest competition in the world. 13th Warrior - back me up on this buddy! Go the Warriors!

I'm a rugby man myself but also love watching all other sports. Have been watching the Warriors over the last month and they are looking good for a finals spot. If they win this weekend against the Roosters it would put them in good stead for the remaining games.

The Warriors are playing fantastic football at the moment. I live in Australia and think they will at least get to the finals. Go the Warriors I'm your number 1 fan in Aussie.

The sight of Steve Price galloping to the line on Saturday brought back memories of the great Iafeta Paleasena! This Warriors side has it all, but most importantly they have confidence. Bring it home boys!
Bulldog Joe
What do you call a group of men sitting around watching the NRL final? The Warriors.
Vick (Melbourne)
Warriors are playing good football right now, with the players and their combinations clicking just perfectly. It is almost difficult to imagine this was the same team that could pick up a win between Round 8 - Round 13. It really is hard to say how far they'll go because this competition continues to prove anything is possible. Everything is looking good at this stage. Go the Warriors!

They could go all the way if they keep this form up. A big crowd at the next home game would even better. Come on all you disgruntled Rugby fans I keep hearing on the radio, turn up and see some real entertainment! Let's get the home semi-final!
Loyal to the bitter end
The Warriors are playing such great smart football the other NRL teams should be very worried. The Warriors are gonna go all the way to the top - to bring the Trophy home for the first time. Go The Warriors!
Danis (Auckland)
The NRL is all about getting hot at the right time and nobody is hotter right now. We are running high on confidence and finally have a backline capable of breaking the line and running in tries to go with our solid defence and forward pack. Go boys!

They won't have a chance against Manly. They have been playing well but against poor opposition. They will make the eight but there are only two teams in the competition this year. This week they will be a massive test for them against a team going ok and will be a good indication as to their true form.
Jeff
Go the Warriors lot more exciting watching these guys on a Saturday than the NPC. They'll probably play Broncos for run at semis beat them then, who knows?
