    3 > 2 > 1 vs. Bulldogs

    I agree totally. Every player did their job last night. Its hard to give a 3-2-1 when everyone was on. Warriors need to win 4 of 7 now to make eight. Be tough to finish any higher than 6 but.

    3 - 2 - 1 vs Titans

    Mannering is pretty unanimous as player of the day. Elijah Taylor continues to impress me with his out and out energy in defence. He is not a dynamic attacking player but he covers some ground. With him and Luck together, the warriors defence works so much better. Hohaia had a good impact at...

    Does Cleary leaving end our season?

    Absolutely no way! That would be suicide. Democracy and involvement is one thing, but what t f would half the members actually know about winning NRL games. Selecting the coach is the job for the management. They have to work out the structure, whether they can fund and organise what a coach...

    Team vs. Titans.

    Heremia will start if fit as he is a better dummy half than Mara. Expecially as SJ will be back. We can't have two scatter heads in the hooker/halves. Heremia is also a better defender. Ivan, I hope is a professional and will continue to pick players based on the team/game plan and opposition...

    3, 2, 1 v Cheats

    I'm usually a Hohaia supporter. But there is no doubt in my mind, that two of his plays directly resulted in tries to the storm. He scored one, but ultimately he had a negative game. probably lost it for the Warriors. We need a specialist fullback really badly. We have depth everywhere else. I...

    Konrad Hurrell

    Don't be daft. There is a HUUUUGH gap between under 20's and 1st Grade. The Fish was a superstar in under 20's and completely intimidated at 1st Grade. The Fish will be a star and this Hurrell looks really good. But give them time.

    Junior rugby league weights - post for people involved in kids sport

    In Wellington NZ we have a small RL comp and a very, very high proportion of the kids are maori/polyensian. Probably 99%. You still get big variations in size amongst polyensian community as well. We have age divisions with no weight restrictions. We compete against Rugby which have weight...

    Team V Cheats

    I can understand some of whats happening. Mannering is in to replace luck and stiffen up the defence up the middle and on the edges of the ruck. I can understand with Fish and Locke out, that Hohaia goes to F/B. Thats logical. Centres is where the big problem is now. Obviously Mannering is...

    Lance Hohaia

    I agree with posters that Manu should be given a spell. I have always forgiven him his defensive lapses because he was such an attacking asset. But whether he hasn't managed to get a combination with Mannering or what, that attacking effectiveness is gone. So, what we are left with is a net...

    3, 2, 1 v Cowboys

    Johnson scored a great try and had a great run, but really, in the cold light of dawn, he ruined it by not passing to Hohaia at the right time. Should hav ben a try. But did he do his job of organising and kicking? You can't give him 3 points for not doing his job well enough. His fitness...

    Defense and attention to detail

    I don't mind a compressed defence, BUT ON YOUR LINE????? Thats like, here you go, score a try. Fish is a fullback and he'll take time to be a winger. I though Inu was relatively good defensively in the centre, at least the 1st half. Then it all fell apart. SJ scored a blistering try, but is...

    NSW Ratings Thread

    I've never been a Gallen supporter or admirer. I always thought he was a liability because he would take the thug element too far. He was a 70's player in the 00's. He was easily the most outstanding player on the field. Its fair to say, that I thought Ricky Stuart was a great player but an...

    Team vs. Roosters

    It is pretty exciting. SJ has a lot of potential and will be very interesting how he goes. Rapira has first grade experience already so he'll be right. The depth there is a great strength for this team. Finally we might see the club fulfil its potential. Manu better improve or really, he'll...

    Team vs. Roosters

    Your kiddin? He's 21. Up until a few years ago, each NRL side had an under 23's, Reserves and a 1st grade side. At 23 you were considered too young and inexperienced to play first grade. Very few players went from Presidents (under 19's) to 1st grade then. Ettinghouse, Fitler, maybe Daily. Not...

    Team vs. Roosters

    I disagree totally. Berrigan is on the bench because he can cover centre, halves and hooker. i.e like Lance. Mara has a long way to go before he is in front of Heremia. He will get there, but he tends not to run at the right time and overplays his hand. Mara needs to continue to do an...

    Did anyone else think..

    If you are referring to me, Mate, I'm NSW country. I just live in NZ at the moment. I've been to heaps of SOO games in the 80's. I got caught in the hype back then too. Few years out of Oz and I don't get it. Its almost, Aussie rulesish......mind you, they did invent the concept, RL just copied it.

    Did anyone else think..

    Origin has lost it as a concept and fails miserably to live up to the hype. That hype was built in the 80's when big hits and brawls were common place. Now the game is faster and the player lines are such they don't often get exposed to the big hit. They run in search of a quick play the...

    Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnuuu

    Excellent. That mirrored my reaction to that play from my lounge room in Wellington. I told my 10 year old never to play that dumb, ever! But I knew he wouldn't do anything that stupid... And I'd just calmed down after Manu's off load! Jesus, what were they doing! Anyway, Inu, all things...

    3,2,1 Vs Knights

    I think Manu (see above) would have the warriors playing a very structured, very composed St George like approach. Thats why he criticises Maloney and Hohaia. But what happens now, with the video analysis and review, is that playing structured football week in, week out, means that teams can...

    The Warriors

    They have 25 players and a salary cap like everyother team? Ridiculous thing to say. All the players in Cronulla are from Cronulla? A third of the Warriors are from Qld
