And ex warrior Peter Hiku has made an extended manly bench

 

[Warmess]

Can't really complain about that side, aside from only having 1 prop on the bench? You'd think Henry should really drop off in favour of Gubb.

Gotta say it's a good looking side from Elliot. No Tupou, no Ropati....it seems like he really is letting form decide the spots.

So it was henrys form that got him in the side- I was wondering

 

[NZ Warrior]

No Ropati = I think I'm gonna like the Elliot Era!

Extended bench so the final make up will be a secret until game day. Have a feeling that if the bench stays as is though that Ikahihifo will play a bit of prop with the other three props playing extended minutes.

Bah humbug.
But otherwise happy with that.

 

[SilentOne]

it's our strongest side at the moment considering injuries.

 

[Iafeta]

Good team. Would suggest Gubb and Ikahihifo will drop off the bench. Happy to see that Johnson will be there. Thrilled to see Fisiiahi ahead of Tupou. Only hope though that Hayne doesn't launch those monster spiral bombs on him or anyone in the back three... still have nightmares about that a couple of years ago.

Have you had the short lecture on sex and travel today mate ????

 

[NZ Warrior]

Nope.

 

[jamaman]

Elliot said on radio sport...stick to the basics

 

[Micistm]

Can't really argue too much with the side, seems to be the best of what we've got. Game on! Let's see some effort and heart guys! ;-)

 

[Micistm]

Only thinking point... Godinet/Johnson at 6&7, Thomas L at 9? Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised with the halves, we'll see!

 

[ozbash]

Nope.

Its coming

Good team, not sure who I'd drop off, Gubby went good at Dunedin..

 

[Skinner]

Nope.

It's here: f**k Off

 

[Micistm]

Go the Warriors. And anyone playing the Roosters

 

[Skinner]

Go the Warriors. And anyone playing the Roosters

I concur

 

[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

i think johnson will be a late scratching and godinet to start

 

[chrisD]

How does Henry work off the bench? Is he playing second row?
