    Team v Tigers

    Think we missed a bigger body in the middle in the first 20 mins. Barnett is a small prop and think he is better off the bench or starting 2nd row and moving in later in the game. 3rd concussion for CNK this year according to NRL physio. His work at the back is a big reason for our improvement...

    Team v Tigers

    We missed Bunty. Can’t carry both Jazz & Sirro in the 17, so one of them has to make way. Tuaupiki should be fine against Wests, but if CNK is missing for a while we are going to need another option a at FB.

    3-2-1 v Titans

    3. SJ 2. AFB 1. Egan Really dissapointing game. Fair play to the Titans spoiling tactics, that is footy. The refs are to blame for letting them get away with it and we got sucked in and brought down to Titans level. Hopefully a lesson learned and we will have got more out of that than putting...

    No. I want to see the biggest and best world cup ever as was promised. Their original target was 1M attendance then revised to 750k, then 570k to beat womens euros. Current forecasts have them lucky to break 500k. How much money is being left on the table with 250k tickets unsold?

    Did you read the first sentence? “Battling to break even”…two independent journalists from the Australian & BBC just decided on a bias take following a media call with Dutton?

    A bad salesman blames the customer. 2013 had higher crowds with a smaller operating budget. So what has changed in 9 years?

    According to who? All the talk out of Dutton this week is they are “struggling to break even” https://www.bbc.com/sport/rugby-league/63330824.amp

    Attendances

    It’s so deflating seeing all the empty seats/terraces when the coverage starts. Had high hopes going in this was going to be the tournament we went to the next level but RL admin strikes again. All talk and no action. They’ve failed to engage the existing RL community or the fabled “event goer”...

    Get your playing Devil’s advocate Yak, but you’d have to think outside of the big sellers they spruiked pre tournament (Final, Bolton, Women’s opener, Men’s opener) most of those pre sales would be for the first round. And the crowds to date aren’t reflecting that. Let’s agree they sold 350k...

    Calling bullshit on 350k pre sales before tournament start. Somethings very fishy here. Halliwell Jones is empty for NZ game after getting 15k for the corresponding fixture in 2013.

    No Australian tv deal yet!

    Ace. Hopefully now Fox are involved that clears the way to get Vossy over for commentary.

    Greatest EVER Kiwi? Greatest EVER Warrior?

    Stacey, Price & Mannering are the greatest Warriors. I’d argue Manu is the greatest modern day Kiwi, certainly the most decorated. Was there for 2005, 2008, 2010, 2014 and the threepeat against the Kangaroos.

    NRZL pulls out of World Cup

    Plus Argentina & South Africa will be coming for Rugby Championship in next couple of months. Would be a bit rich to let them in and not our own national league team.

    NRZL pulls out of World Cup

    Piss weak. NZRL just confirming we are Australia’s lapdog. Sick of media using the Warriors as justification for the welfare issues as well. If they cared that much they’d let the poor buggers come home now. From our current fit squad only 10 players were likely to picked for the world cup and...
