Kick Parramatta out of the comp if they don’t like how the NRL operate. It won’t end well for them if they keep wanting to take on PVL. I’m expecting a 9-1 penalty count in our favour when we play them.

Some of the recent rugby league stories are clutching at straws, bring back Chammas.

With the 6 man bench I assume we will always include a back up halve whether that be Lutu Fainu or Jock Madden. That being the case we will always have insurance if Doueihi or anyone else is having a bad game and struggling in the halves. I’m a big Jock Madden fan and could not be more impressed...

He’s big enough and smart/skilful enough, but is he fast enough ? In our trial games he has been impressive, but we have not seen him in the clear or hitting anywhere near top speed.

He’s firey that’s for sure and certain. He’s also a specialist right centre which is a bonus as good ones are hard to find.

We can send them To’a and solve all their problems.

As you know I was not so long ago very pessimistic about our 2026 prospects. That has recently changed as I’m seeing plenty of confidence within our playing group, it definitely looks to be a tight knit playing group and I’ve seen good improvement in a lot of our players since last season. That...

I’m assuming Barnett has agreed to stay with the Warriors for the 2026 season as he knows it’s too late for them to find a decent replacement. I’m also assuming that he would be happy move back to Australia ASAP if a club was willing to provide the Warriors with an immediate player swap they are...

In a perfect world we could lose nobody we want to keep and add Barnett. But, that is unlikely and we probably cannot offer him as much as some other clubs if we are upgrading and extending the contracts of some of our key players currently off contract at the end of 2027. I initially mentioned...

You are correct in saying if a player is contracted and does not want to leave, he doesn’t have to. I merely stated that I think the Warriors would be very keen if we offered them Fonua Pole as an immediate swap for Mitch Barnett. I also went on to say I would not consider this swap as I believe...

Did you read the last part of my post ? It stated I would not be interested, but I’m sure the Warriors would be.

Top 8 is the pass mark. 2026 is shaping up as season where no team is unbeatable. If we turn up with the right attitude, don’t beat ourselves with mistakes or by giving away too many penalties or set restarts, we have the ability given any game. Providing we get a pass mark each game from our...

Yeah I watched it. No mention of his future past this season, but seemed happy to be a Wests Tigers player as of now. It sounded like Benji was keen to recruit him, so maybe we might be keen on keeping him for longer than one season. I imagine the problem is Perth are offering a contract for a...

I agree, but it’s all rumours at this stage.

I think he’s a chance of forcing his way into our top 19 or top 17 on a regular basis if he keeps improving. I know he’s been around for a while, but would not be surprised if he’s ready to step up a level. Obviously if he signs with Perth it makes it a bit harder as we would have one eye on the...

Well so is Sydney if you look at it that way.

Next year won’t be an option as he’s choosing the Broncos everyday of the week if it’s from 2027 onwards. It sounds like Barnett would ideally like to move back to Australia ASAP and if that’s the case the Warriors will only agree to it if they get someone they want in return. I mean I would...

Well I reckon there’s a fair chance the Warriors would be open to a straight swap Mitch Barnett for Fonua Pole this season if we were interested. As much as I could see someone like Mitch Barnett adding some real toughness and steel to our forward pack, I would not let Fonua go as I see massive...

The forwards will lay the platform for us to succeed and then it’s up to our million dollar backs to weave their magic and win us the games that could go either way. My concern in not having a back rower with explosive speed is still there, but KPP could be than man if he chooses to hit top...

If it’s hot when we are playing we should not play both of Royce and Bunty as they both gas out quickly, where Big Red handles the hot weather well. The 6 man bench should be perfect for us if we use it well. I do not understand the apprehension with Tristan Hope ? I acknowledge his dummy half...
