    Give Mason and Ata a go.

    Maybe it's our style of attack which is stifling Johnson? Both Kearney and Cappy (both started their coaching careers at the Storm) have tried to turn the Warriors into some watered down Storm clone. Interesting hearing Michael Ennis after the Bulldogs lost against the Panthers today. He...

    Your first live international cricket fixture.

    First live game for me was in 1994 New Zealand vs Australia in Hamilton. Jeff Wilson hit the winning runs and in absolute thriller. I remember Merv Hughes hit a massive six that went out of the Seddon Park. Other games I have seen live include New Zealand vs England when Jesse Ryder and McCullum...

    Cronk to leave Storm in 2018

    Wow big news. I can see Cronk going to the Dogs and Widdop going back to Melbourne.

    Foran Is Coming

    I would have thought playing would be the best thing for him rather than doing nothing. Also, if he is training the house down wouldn't that suggest he is motivated and in the frame of mind to play?

    Bangladesh in NZ

    Agree. In regards to Santner, he epitomises everything wrong with the direction New Zealand cricket is taking. The guy barely turns the ball and his batting is average to say the least. He is the kind of player that at best will average about 40 with the ball and 25 with the bat. Not good...

    Recruitment for next year

    Massive fan of Foran but do don't think he can alone fix the Warriors issues. The game against the Rabbits showed the Warriors need some size in the pack along with a couple of speedy wingers. Its no coincidence the four top teams have big forward pack. I would love the Warriors to look at...

    Who replaces Cappy?

    I would like to see the Warriors have a go a getting Brian Smith. Underrated coach Imo. They guy has the ability to rebuild clubs. He also has the ability to bring out the best in players ie Todd Carney. There is an argument that Smith can't take his teams to the next level however, he has done...

    vs knights

    Johnson would be well suited to the position of fullback. It would allow him to roam around rather than being positioned on one side of the field.

    2015 ODI WORLD CUP discussion thread

    Like you I am pleased to see Baz opening at the top. However, I am a little concerned that having him opening and replacing Ryder has weakened the middle order power. I am not convinced Elliot or Latham have the ability to score quick runs when required. I would have selected Colin Munro to bat...

    New Zealand tour of United Arab Emirates

    If McCullum opens the batting, a slot at number 5 needs to be filled. I am not sure Latham has done enough to warrant that position. I would like to see Colin Munro or Grant Elliott given a go before the world cup. Munro is a good striker of the ball and has a good record in domestic cricket...

    New Zealand tour of United Arab Emirates

    The selection for the world cup with be very interesting. I would definitely go with McClenaghan in the squad. The guy has an outstanding ODI record so far and deserves a spot in the team. Vettori has to be the number one spinner, during his career he has shown he can take wickets and be...

    Rank em on pure talent - not averages

    Viv was a freak. Not only did he have an average of 50 in tests, he also averaged 47 and had a strike rate of 90 in ODIs. Staggering considering strike rates of 70 per hundred balls was considered good back in his playing days.

    NRL Finals

    I agree about Sonny Bill. He looked like he didn't want to put his body on the line. He played well last year, but I don't think he came back to the league the same player he was at the Dogs. the shoulder charge rule took away a lot from his arsenal.

    Prepare for some news

    At the moment there are very few marque players on the market. Probably the best strategy would be to look at younger players looking for an opportunity. I think O'Neil would be an interesting signing. The guy was touted a potential superstar a few years ago. He has genuine class and talent...
