Round 16 v Warriors

[Luke Bowden]

The Garner disrespect is sickening, get around the great man

I f**king love him, but he’s a victim of being so versatile.

He makes our bench look so much stronger. I’d have no issues with him starting in the back row, every week.

 

[Oldpanther86]

That doesn't mean he needs to ride the pine.

It's not the 80s it isn't disrespect to start on the bench anymore. He'd know how valuable he is.

Also Ivan please pick a fullback at fullback (NOT Laurie)

Will be Laurie for sure. Brad inn the halves. Alamoti for Biz. Sommo on bench. Huth will come in.

Man dont ruin my buzz

Just on the no Origin players because of Logistics. Its a diabolical move by the NRL but....

Origin is Wednesday
Players back to Sydney Thursday regardless (5 hour trip) (EDIT - Forgot this one was at Perth)
Fly out to NZ Friday (3 hour trip) Its actually 2 hours longer to fly to Perth..
Game Saturday.

Don't get me wrong, its a rubbish move by the NRL and a load on the 5 playing, but it is doable if he wants to back them up is it not? Am i missing something regarding the logistics issue coach alluded to?

 

[Stinkfinger]

i think we will surprise a few this game - it will be a similar lineup to the knights game but we have Garner, Sorro & Papali'i available - unfortunately i dont see Hassett getting game time this time round.

Henry also served his 2 game suspension so he'll play as well - no Riki & Huth please - they just arent FG material

Laurie
Alamoti
Tago
Mclean
Jenkins
Talagi
Schneids (Toelau prefer)
Leota
Kenny
Henry
Sorro
Papali'i
Smith

Sommerton
Garner
Patea
Eisenhuth (Hassett prefer)

Hassett will make the 17 for sure. It's a much stronger side than what took on the Knights but probably not good enough for this assignment. Laurie is a worry but maybe some well placed words will bring the best out. You'd have to think he'd be out to impress potential employers.

 

[Girds89]

Lindsay smith will play 100%.. he should be on the red eye out of Perth and in nz thursday morning.

1. Laurie
2. Alamonti
3. Tago
4. Casey
5. Milky
6. Blaize
7. Trent t
8. Leota
9. Kenny
10. Smith
11. Garner
12. Soro (on the right)
13. Eiso

14. Sommo
15. Patea
16. Papali
17. Henry

They need to channel the baby Panthers of 2018.

Also payback for our disastrous loss to the Warriors in Magic round last year. That was an all time win for NZ and we never should have let it happen.

Correct. Ivan said he was angry it was out of the club's hands. That's not what you say when you're trying to trick the warriors

Anything else is cope from people panicking at the season results.

 

[Chins]

Putting much value in coaches lying to journalists that they hate is very odd
