I would field the same team we fielded against the Dragons.
They'll lose but at least they'll bloody well try.

Full loss of incumbency for the stupid six, proper loss, not just a one week slap on the wrist.
They are *always* the first to fall off when things go wrong.

Leuluai should never play first grade again.

Luke to the bench and given a stern warning to stop coasting.



None of this will happen though, and we're going to get smoked again.

Lisone was one of the 'stupid six'.

He was also one of the few last night who tried. I think of anyone he seems to have tried to redeem himself on the field so I'd persist with him.

Teams suggested above sound good to me.

Something a little weird like

Lolohea
Fusitua
Ayshford/Allwood (Blake starting to falter a bit, also assuming Konny is frozen out completely - a fair assumption I think)
Kata
Vatuvei
Robson (because Broncos, Hingano can make his debut against the Knights, thanks)
Johnson
Lillyman
Tevaga
Lisone
Hoffman
Lane
Sao

Leuluai (he's a hooker not a half, and Luke can play his way into form in reserves)
Matulino
Vete
Ali (Sipley, like Hingano - although not his debut - can wait for Knights)

Bench designed to make an impact, dropping half the forward pack (even Mannering can't get away with a performance like that, and Bodene has been patchy about a month) and Luke. Johnson close to the drop, too. If we totally disgrace ourselves again why not play essentially NSW cup side vs NSW cup side the week after? Just dump friggen everyone that didn't have a particularly good game - the reserves guys at least aren't pissing around.

Listening to Justin Morgan on Radio Sport saying that the only two guys whose position's are safe are Ryan Hoffman and Simon Mannering. So we can assume they will be both be picked for the broncos.

Funny. Both those guys were quite bad last night. Hoffman schooled on D a few times. I'd expect better from each of them so weird to hear they are safe.

I thought Johnson's passing last night was particularly bad.
High, low, behind players; seemed his best pass was to Edrick Lee.
And then he decided not to pass at all, just kick.

Does it matter who they name anymore. Ive been passionate about the issue of average players lining up in Warriors jerseys but its clear the club culture is rotten and some business professionals have been getting paid good bucks to address jack sh@t.

Been a fan since 95, missed a total of 7 games over 21 years.

Finally had enough. Ben Matulino has been a massive contributing factor to the cancerous culture we now find amongst the playing group. The only reason he is still there is because of the fear of a fan backlash if we move him on. All the talent in the world but a shit attitude. Seems to think rugby league, and our club, owe him a living.

I won't watch another Warriors game that he plays in. F*ck off to another club Ben where you actually have to work for a living - let's see how long you last. Scum bag.

It will either be a huge loss or the selected players will respond and win... The dropped players should be made to sit on the sideline and watch the entire thing. They will either feel bad that they made their mates suffer a thrashing or they will realise that there are players in the squad that are playing better than they are.

I don't think Allwood or wright have done too much wrong. Johnson, Mannering and Hoffman are only there because we don't have any one else (through injury or form). The only player whose position is safe, for me at least, is lolohea.

No, it doesn't matter one bit. Until a new head coach is installed and the bad eggs are flushed out, we're shuffling deck chairs.

And Reece makes a very good point on Matulino. I said this either last year or the year before, he's potential a beast but has zero interest in being a leader. And now he's become even worse, someone who negatively influences. You could see when he scored v Newcastle, the pissy tantrum he performed when throwing the ball away...had bad signs written all over it. So maybe his time is up. As a guy who won 2 player of the year awards and was a foundation 20s guy, that sucks...but he doesn't give a f**k anymore. Do we hang on to see if he respects a new coach or flush him? I dunno.

Its official. Reporting theat Johnson, Ayshford and Lillyman are the ones dropped.

Lillyman... Our best prop and ayshford... Our best back.

Hes lost the plot. Im done with this team. Season ticket holder for 8 years but I wont renew if this blokes in charge.
