Went to bed last night thinking it must be a bad dream.
FMD - can't believe the state of that team named.
The dumb thing is that we will probably beat the Storm!

As fans, don't we deserve to be told Ivan's reasoning behind the changes? If Locke and Fish are actually injured, then fair enough. But in all media stories out so far about the naming of the team, they all mention Inu being dropped, then nothing else! Is this due to the media not asking the right questions/not giving a toss, or has Ivan not said a word at all?

Man this is frustrating. We have Hohaia, Berrigan and Heremaia all leaving at the end of the season but find themselves in the starting lineup. Must be playing great footy.

Oh wait.....

Cleary has never explained his decisions before. Why would he start now?

Cos I can't remember a Warrior's team this year getting so many wtfs.
Our two best backs out, another out after one game, one who stays when he deserves to be dropped and some questionable replacements. Apart from the warranted big changes made after round 3 this season, these changes just don't add up.

Maybe the media day is today and we'll get answers Thursday/Friday. There has to be explanations, and a few.

A) What are the injuries to Locke/Fishiahi
B) Why is Berrigan at centre when we hear he was crap in Vulcans and struggled there last start in the NRL?
C) Why are we persisting with makeshift centres. Didn't we sign at least one specialist in Metcalf? (im not advocating his selection per se, just the thinking around it)
D) Why is Inu dropped after one game at centre? Okay he wasn't great, but he didn't do anything that stuck out to me as poor...and isn't he a confidence player? We've gone a long way to destroying it.
E) Why is Johnson dropped, is he being blamed for 3 in a row and our leaky defence?
F) Is this Penrith coaching scenario affecting the team?
G) Why shouldn't I put 10K on the Storm to win 13+?

Not going to get into the whole team this week debate but I was in Townsville for the game and when heading back to Brissy saw the team at the airport and Fish was limping quite badly. Also didn't Locke get injured under the posts when trying to say a try??

I've got no issue with Hohaia at fullback (as much as I am not a Hohaia fan) if Locke and Fisiiahi are both genuinely injured.

Dropping Inu, especially if Locke and Fisiiahi are injured, is dumb dumb dumb.

Yip, all of the above.
Also, I have an issue with Berrigan at centre. :?

If Cleary insists Berrigan's in the team then I guess centre is the best place for him, thankfully he's not at hooker.

I thought he went ok at centre last time tbh.. That was his second week back from injury. We need speed in the 9 jersey, Mara is our only real option there.

Jog on. You were cheats. Hence why you got them stripped. And you're probably still paying over the salary cap, in this case to Ivan's back pocket to put out such a shit side. CHEATS

Rose, There is no way on earth that Lowe, Woolnough, Norrie, Nielsen and Widdop would be playing as well in another side. It's a combination of our coaching and location.

The way this volcanic ash thing is going, we may win by default..

I thought Air NZ flights were still going

Also, if the Storm were unable to get there, we'd probably split the points. (Wouldn't be too bad)

Why is Inu not playing!
Berrigan was a joke in the centres against Newcastle-could not tackle at all.
Inu didnt do bad in the Cowboys game.
Whats going on?
Inu is a player who has done enough on the field this year to more than hold his spot.
What have we not been told? Late for training/grog issue/personality conflict with Cleary.
Berrigan is a joke and should not be playing.
