    End of season report card

    Well that’s it for 2023, so I think it’s time to assess how the team has gone this year- I figure this will be a pretty fun exercise for most of us! I’m personally only going to rate the guys who’ve been given a reasonable crack at first grade but if you were following NSW cup closely feel...

    The front office

    As a long time Warriors fan one of the things you get depressingly used to is the Warriors being a badly mismanaged club. I think over the lifetime of the club there’s been maybe 5-6 years total where they seemed to be generally well run, and they mostly coincided with on field success. I think...

    Should the Warriors play a regular match on Matariki?

    This came up in another thread when discussing “event” games, should the Warriors take advantage of our newest public holiday to schedule a regular match on Matariki? With the holiday falling in late June to July and always being observed on a Friday it would seem like an ideal opportunity for...

    RTS returning to the NRL

    posted this in the Warriors forum but probably big enough news for general discussion. Didn’t really see this coming (at least not at the Warriors), the club has done a good job locking it in without the rumour mill going crazy...

    Mt Smart

    If the Warriors have a good season and with Moana Pasifika also using it as a home ground is it time to try to get some upgrades to Mt Smart? What sort of condition is the ground in these days? I know the eastern stand was built in 2005 and from what I can see a new video screen has been...

    I’m completely stumped

    We’ve reached the point where I think the Betoota Advocate might have actually published a serious news report, but I honestly can’t tell. What do you guys reckon? https://www.betootaadvocate.com/sports/paul-kent-not-arrested-for-behaving-exactly-like-latrell-and-wighton-in-sydneys-broad-daylight/

    3-2-1 vs Broncos

    Not a vintage performance but solid and easily best game this year. I’m gonna go with: 3 - SJ, controlled things pretty well but gets the 3 mainly because the entire team looked better balanced, organised and structured with him out there 2 - Montoya. Does everything at 100km/h and makes it...

    Team v Chooks rd4

    Big opportunity for the boys here. Roosters are in all sorts with injury and our boys should be feeling like they’re on with a real shot. If we go into round 5 with 3 wins from 4 and the away games to Canberra and Easts already under our belts that’s a dream start to the season and a really good...

    OT: Stadiums

    Watching the triple header ii realise it’s nearly a decade since the upgrades to Eden Park before the 2011 RWC. We’re a decade down the track from those now and there’s been no more stadium development in Auckland, Mt Smart hasn’t had a significant upgrade since the Eastern stand was built...

    3-2-1 vs Sea Eagles

    a bit less of a chore than last week! 3 - CHT growing by the week, kicked well, set up tries and an absolute tiger on defence 2 - RTS you just can’t not give him points, in everything 1 - Tevaga best I’ve seen him play at hooker, I love his running game. Hon mentions: Ah Mau, Paasi, Burr...

    Vodafone Warriors head coach Stephen Kearney has named 11 players with NRL experience in the 23-man squad for the club’s first 2019 trial against the Melbourne Storm at Kardinia Park in Geelong on Friday night. Among them are experienced centre Blake Ayshford, new signing Lachlan Burr, 2018...

    Our top side (this year and next)

    so it’s been an improved season despite a constant stream of injuries, but one bonus has been we’ve got a good look at the club’s depth. Fingers crossed nobody else goes down and we get the full complement back for the finals. What do you think our best side will look like, for this year and...

    The return of the king...

    so I’m back in NZ In a couple of weeks for a bit and I realise it’s been 16 years since I’ve been to a home game at Mt Smsrt... last time I was there the eastern stand wasn’t even built! I’m thinking I need to catch the Knights game on the 10th... who’ll be around to enjoy the occasion with...

    3-2-1 vs Panthers

    someones gotta do it 3 - Ken (only one really playing with any mongrel and fittingly the only one to score. Should’ve had two tries but the refs stole a sitter off him.) 2 - Beale (for coming on late and showing Hiku what a tackle is) 1 - nobody Minus points 3- Hiku (f**king turnstile) 2-...

    3-2-1 vs Cows

    3 - Johnson (game management with the boot won it for us, simple) 2 - RTS (pure class at the back and a great try 1 - Luke (rocks and diamonds but the diamonds shone bright) Of the others most people did their jobs without excelling I thought. Kata was going well til he did his hammy and bombed...
