[QUOTE="sanzar, post: 63340"] Nah... much more like St George really. The Warriors win by luck of the bounce most of the time I think and aren't really a unit, just a bunch of individuals out to prove something, whereas St George has all the talent and all the promise and play like a team, and look like they are going to fulfil at certain times every year, but always just fall short from the pressure or someone is just that much better than them. That's how the Tah's are at the moment, they have the talent and promise and are a well drilled unit and know how to win most games, but can't lift enough for the big challenges! The Tah's used to be like the Warriors, but you can't really say that anymore with their consistency... look at St Geroge last year, that's the Tahs :( . I gotta say though, I do see why the Brumbies hold fear for the Kiwi teams... For the Tahs they are the toughest local derby match, but they're an Aussie team and we have the kind of game to play them (especially with a bloke like McKenzie at the helm, who knows them better than most), but they have been the side most likely to overcome the odds against stronger looking kiwi teams for a few years now... I don't know what it is about when they play you guys, but it is different isn't it? [/QUOTE]
