Going to be a tough night on the Island with the heat and a huge must win for the Warriors and a big threat in Buxton coming to town. The big hitters of Morley & Bowtell absent will be a worry for the home side. Booking Hampshire to guest for Widman could be an inspired move if he performs as he has recently or seal the Warriors fate if he has an off night. Not many places that Buxtons reserves will go and look the stronger pairing, think whoever gets the best from RR will edge this one and fancy Buxton to register their first points of the season tonight.

That was nearly as bad a prediction as I made saying Plymouth would struggle to get any heat advantages at Brum....lol

Yep definitely got that one wrong but delighted for the Warriors. No doubting Hampshire was a shrewd booking and Ayres stayed upright and imperious all night. As for Buxton its going to be a tough year especially when Tedham & an unattached 3 pointer (well done Jamie) get 10 (paid 13) vs 2 at reserve. Add in Whitmore who is badly out of his depth at NL level and there are problems. That said good to see Coles back and scoring points and also good to hear there was a good crowd in attendance.

..Solid performance from the IOW plus guests,, admittedly against a very weak Buxton side..
