With all these options I can't see where Jazz fits in.
He isn't a hooker, he isn't a prop, he isn't a back rower.
And he certainly isn't a back.

Broncos still gonna have Walsh, Mam, Reynolds, Walters/Paix. Their spine is in tact, and it will just be Cobbo, Haas, Carrigan & Capewell that are out to origin.

Not as easy as it might look.

I think Walsh & Flegler might make the squad. I'm unsure on the rules for players 19, 20 & 21. The fact that the Broncos game is in Napier could potentially mean they don't travel across.

He just takes the pass from Egan and bend the line, then offload. The bald bros are devastating 😆

He is the equivalent of the volleyball‘s libero player

Jazz always had 1 or 2 errors too many and over played his hand.

However in 2023 he is one of the best players you can get off the bench. He raises the intensity level, runs hard with an off load and makes great tackles.

I thought he was one of our top performers before he got injured

Yes. No accident that Walker has been quiet since we lost Jazz, they are fast ruck guys, low to the ground, both excellent tacklers, a nightmare off the bench as a pair.

Jazz would be one of the first picked after Walker on the bench.

Barnett was cleared by the specialist to get back to full duties. The Round 14 thing sounds about right with him needing a good build up with maybe....maybe a cup game.

One of the things the Warriors have done well this year is to not rush people, exception is Tohu but they say Tohu insisted the knee was ok to play on.

Metcalf is fully recovered as we saw in the NSW cup, they pulled him early to put him in cotton wool for likely fg.

Volkman is a three to four week injury...so defo will not be playing.

He's a middle forward and is in the best 17 when everyone in fully fit & available. Full stop.

Amazing how we have made Jazz and Walker genuine back rowers under Webster. Good move. Walker ball plays, Jazz makes insane post contact meters, hits like a sledge hammer, can play eighty minutes if we have injuries and is no longer stinking up the attack by being a receiver in the set plays inside the opponents twenty.

As was pointed out he has done his part by committing to no more turn overs or sneaky ankle pulls and ball rakes.

Finally the guy is that dream high work rate penetrating forward with mongrel.

Utility just like Walker. He is in our best 17. Jazz may not be easily identifiable by a position. However if we had to categorise him by an body organ. It would be the heart of the Warriors. Similar to Jerry Seu Seu back in the days.

Thought Volkman‘s fracture would rule him out for a bit, Metcalf straight back in hopefully then he can be No.14 along with Walker, Jazz and Curran when Te Maire returns

Hope Barnett would be on the bench against the Dolphins, we’d have Lussick, Walker, Curran and Barnett on the bench, keep Curran till the last 20 min as Dolphins look like they have a pop in the last quarter of their games

If Walsh isn't named ahead of Ponga, I think he'll be 18th man and they won't want him to travel to Napier

Anyone know if we’re doing a deferred indigenous round thing in Napier? I see we’ve got a jersey and we’re taking the game to a region with a large Māori population so it’d make sense?
