3-2-1 v Raiders

[Campion]

3 - RTS
2 - Nikorima
1 - O'Sullivan (for providing shape on attack)

Though Murdoch-Masala was again tremendous as an impact player

Swap Fus out for Montoya
Swap Ken out for Turner

We need speed out wide. Our forward pack does most the metre eating now. Which makes Fus and Ken redundant for 2021.

Broncos should take Fus not the rumored Perham. He has more to offer the Warriors I feel.

Great win Team made my weekend.

They actually don't. AFB and Tohu eat metres but the rest are passengers at times. Look at the stats from the weekend for example.

Most of those meters are kick return meters from within our 20 zone. We still lack speed on the edges and dare I say agility/finesse. Fus has been passenger like in certain efforts at crucial moments of games the past 2-3 seasons. Ken has got this flaw letting the ball bounce and positioning still needs work. I wonder if a stint in the lower grades will give them a wake up call. We also need to use our forwards better to let our backs do some finishing for once rather than being crash bash forwards.

Katoa hasn't been touching the ball nearly as much so far this season as last
