The Daily Post reporter Gary Hamilton-Irvine gives his picks for Round 11 of the NRL
Tigers v Warriors, tonight:
Glen Fisiiahi and Sam Rapira return to the Warriors side for this one. The 'Fish' (Fisiiahi) is just overflowing with tries with 18 in just eight NSW Cup matches this season. I don't care what league that is, even if you're playing under 7s in Invercargill, that is still a lot of tries. Everyone is talking about Shaun Johnson versus Benji Marshall, so I won't bother. An interesting statistic here is the two sides have met 20 times, winning 10 each and with only Robbie Farah away on State of Origin duty this game should make for a classic. Alehana Mara went well last week and with Liam Fulton, who is racking up 40 tackles a game, they could be the ones to watch.
Origin players out: Robbie Farah (Tigers).
Warriors 12 under
Cowboys v Panthers, tomorrow:
Cowboys are posting some big scores with the second best attack in the league at the moment. However, this game will suit Penrith with the origin selections taking Jonathan Thurston, Brent Tate, James Tamou and Matt Scott out of the game. Ivan Cleary will be stressing the importance of getting a bit of a roll on and growing team confidence after a golden-point win on Monday night. It should be a good clash and look out for Ashley Graham, the kid is top try scorer this season with 11 tries already.
