    Round 7 vs Warriors

    Warriors fan here. Not trolling just want to say I was really impressed with your team. That game could gave gone either way. I thought the Lafai try should have been awarded as Warriors had taken advantage by about 20 metres. Would have been tough on Maumalo who fronted up big time in my...

    Team for Storm trial

    Seems a very back-centric selection unless Kearney is playing Maumalo as a forward, and maybe Ayshford.

    2017 pre-season.

    I asked the Knights forum about him. They said he was a bench Prop in NYC and lacked a bit of fitness, but goes OK

    2016 Rep Round Venues/Dates Announced (ANZAC/Pacific Test)

    My understanding is hat NZ asked for the game to be played in NZ and Channel 9 vetoed it. The annoying thing for Kiwis is that this is the best team probably ever produced by NZ and we have to travel to Aussie to see them play. I will concede that this wasn't an ARL decision but it sure fits...

    2016 Rep Round Venues/Dates Announced (ANZAC/Pacific Test)

    surely the application should come from NZRL, not the ATEED. Look at the venues for the ANZAC Tests and then tell me it isn't totally weighted in Australias favour.

    2016 Rep Round Venues/Dates Announced (ANZAC/Pacific Test)

    Once again the NRL bullies get all internationals played in Australia. When was the last ANZAC test played in New Zealand?. My understanding is that the contracts for this game are about to end. I think it is time to end this nonsense and play someone like Samoa in Auckland or Apia so Kiwis...

    Round 1 v Tigers

    I reckon the guy who will push on and make a real impact will be Henry if his injuries are behind him. I see him taking a second row starting spot with Thompson to the bench as a 2nd row/Prop. Henry is a good defender and has better hands IMO than RFM and Thompson. He also combines well with SJ...

    James Gavet

    At the very worst he adds to depth

    S J recovery.

    he needs to get his confidence back, if fit he should play the 9's where he can be subbed and therefore managed in his comeback to playing contact.

    Anymore Likely?

    I saw that the Warriors had Kata as a FB back up, That is interesting. Wells and Wright will be in the mix as well I guess.

    Who's next on Jim's Hit List?

    Lolohea is fortunate in that he is in a stable Warriors set up that wasn't there for a lot of Johnstones time. He needs to get a kicking game. Personally I think that Lolohea is more suited to centre. Kata is a former Union halfback and may be more suited as a half IMO

    Who's next on Jim's Hit List?

    Until this season he was regarded as a half who had utility value. Fortunately for us he has shown that he can handle FB wing and centre to a high standard. He is regarded as a long term Warrior and some people regard him as better developed than shaun Johnston at a similar age.

    Team v Eels

    With Manu I guess it must be bruising rather than any other damage. I agree that if there is a risk don't play him. However if it is bruising he has a bye next week. With our depleted backline it may be worth the risk. I wouldn't risk Tomkins, give the knee another fortnight, we have a bye...

    Looks like Matagi is off.

    Along with Manu Mau a real redemption story. His off field work should continue whoever he goes to. Unfortunately e has been overtaken at the Warriors. I wish him all the best.

    Team v Storm

    I would put Kata on the wing, Laumape has had a lot of experience playing with Manu and Kata is better suited to the wing at the moment as he hasn't learnt to set up his outsides at centre. He deserves a place in the team on form but the distribution thing worries me. He is also quite good in...
