If the Warriors were to be judged on their past three matches (won one, lost two), a picture would be painted of a team struggling to navigate its way through the Momentum 1-Day Cup.Yet when their record is scrutinised closely, they are closer to the play-offs than are the Dolphins, the team they play at Kingsmead this afternoon.It would be safe to say the bottom-placed Dolphins have had their flippers clipped after what has been an underwhelming campaign.They have also had the unwelcome cloud of Robbie Frylinck's alleged assault on teammate Ayavuya Myoli and the disciplinary hearing that cleared him last week.It was reported that some team members were unhappy with the way the disciplinary proceedings were handled.Times Media has reliably learnt that Dolphins chief executive Pete de Wet had a meeting with players, but no details of the meeting were divulged.Frylinck was not named in the 14-man squad, with coach Lance Klusener deciding to opt for continuity.The Warriors, whose log position is due to an encouraging start to the competition, find themselves entangled with the Lions in second spot, with a place in the play-offs beckoning.Coach Malibongwe Maketa's immediate concern is securing said play-off spot as quickly as possible."We believe we need to win the last two games to ensure we're home. That will give us a chance to host the play-off."In the event of that not working out, at least we know we'll be in the play-offs. One thing we've given up on is catching the Cape Cobras. Their 29 points make for a decisive lead," said Maketa."To be fair, we've had our stumbles in all the competitions, not just the one we've been playing in. That's not something we'd be priding ourselves on because we've shown a lot of fight in this competition, even though we haven't played our perfect game yet. I hope we'll be able to string together those perfect games, starting with the Dolphins. We've played in patches and haven't ticked our boxes satisfactorily."Maketa knows the Dolphins are stuck in a sea of trouble on and off the field, but he also knows they should not be taken lightly."What makes the Dolphins very dangerous is that they have nothing to lose. With the players they have at their disposal they are dangerous and they will play with freedom. While we've had good games against them in the past, we need to tick every box," he said...
