TEAM LIST Round 4 vs Warriors

[Adam Doobie]

So the top-of-the-table Warriors are full strength, welcoming players back, and we are bleeding due to injuries. It was already a tough match up but now it looks bleak. Would be a great win requiring an all time performance.

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

Bunty to top 30. Tavana on a development maybe? Otherwise would be ineligible until round 11.

That's a fair assumption. I don't think they have changed the rules for T&T players as it's all in the most recent CBA so Tino would have to be Development to be eligible.

given the uphill battle for this match, I would not risk AD. Too important given our tough month ahead and our draw moving forward.

We can go with these boys in the middle . The killed the souths forwards on the weekend . We have to limit time and space in the edges for guys like Halasima .
One thing having madden does is he’s very good at finding grass . I’d much rather CNK at the back than Tuapiki. Better defensively but way worse in attack .

 

[Wezt]

Can’t believe Will Craig didn’t make the cut ffs

This game is a write off 🤦‍♂️

 

[Buttface]

our forwards match up really well
if we had luai i would be confident
$4.10 looks appealing

I noticed your Kings now have their own thread on the WTF.

And, at this stage that $4.10 looks more appealing in my pocket.

I think NZ will skin us alive tbh. They are aggressive and bully you all game

Our forwards are good but haven’t really been tested. The Fainus are probably the only forwards we’ve got with a bit of mongrel about them

 

[EllisFan]

my view:-

thought Seyfarth was good against the cows, defensive intensity excellent. cant be dropped.

Against rabbits, he was back to running sideways and 'trying to score' plays.

Needs to be told tuck the ball under and run straight, and play ball quickly for the spine to take control.

One thing though, it was when Api was off, and when he went off, none of the forwards were running onto the ball.

On the cows game, Red cant be dropped. On rabbits game, he should be.

We have a few players who need to be banned from carrying the ball in the red zone. Momentum killers are us.

Why even take the risk of flying AD to NZ ....

Because it takes five days by rowboat and we playing on Friday

Have watched all their games. They are the kings of the arm wrestle. They complete very high and run down Main Street. Keeping it tight defensively in the middle and playing some footy early are the only answers in my opinion, need to get them ad-libbing.

bugger metcalfe is back !

why is AD at 7 should be jock at 7 AD at 6

Ad won't play

 

[pacey]

As much as I love Turuva, he isn’t a centre and Jock Madden is a halfback, not a five eighth.

I wish we stick to players in their natural positions and rest AD so we’re in a better spot to beat Parra.

 

[HUNT 101]

Don't be surprised if a last minute shuffle comes into play,Benji might just be keeping the Warriors in 2 minds as to what half's combination we go with.

 

[TigerJunior4]

There’s no way AD plays. Even if it was just a strain, you wouldn’t risk him aggravating the hamstring issue this early in the season.

Jock will play 7 and Latu will play 6.

Hope is one of them...

 

[EllisFan]

Yeah he got a bit hoggy didn’t he.

 

[Chunk]

Surprised AD was named but maybe Latu will replace AD because they don't want the media attention for his return game.

 

[EllisFan]

Surprised AD was named byt maybe Latu will replace AD and they don't want the media attention for his return game.

Could have just been severe cramping given time of year and additional running load in the halves.

I’m hopeful AD plays as changing both halves against the competition front runners is a tall order.

Can we sign the bloke who can row a rowboat to NZ in 5 days because we could certainly use his speed and stamina in the club.
