Warriors refreshed after bye but facing buoyant Titans

The NZ Warriors are reporting that the Titans kept themselves in the finals hunt with an upset win over the Cowboys.

They will need to be every bit as committed in defence again tonight if they're to keep the Warriors in check.

The 22-13 victory in front of their home fans ended a four-game losing streak and breathed new life into a season that was threatening to slip away from the men from the glitter strip.

With games against the Warriors, Sharks, Panthers, Storm, and Bulldogs to come, sneaking into the finals will be no easy task, but the Titans know they have the firepower to score points provided they can keep their defence in order.

The Warriors are finals-bound and looking every bit a genuine contender with Shaun Johnson in sublime form in the No 7 and a posse of tryscoring threats capable of breaking down even the best defensive units.

A top-four finish and a double chance beckon for Andrew Webster's men as they look to put the icing on a superb season and take momentum into September with five very winnable games to come.

But Webster is well aware tonight's only match of the season between his side and the Titans is a challenge posing real danger.
