I'm more interested in the team when DWZ and RTS come back, which I presume is a couple of weeks away. Add in JFH, as well.

A backline of 1. CNK 2. DWZ 3. Leaitaua, 4. Pompey, 5. RTS and JFH pushes Niukore to the bench, and Laban out? Or Bunty out?

I don't see a spot for Healey right now. Egan is flying. Do we really want a bench spot for a guy to play 10-15 minutes, and for a guy who hasn't played in the NRL no less?

Trivia time: There is a Warrior, who is second on the NRL list of % of post contact metres (ie percentage of his metres are post contact)

A former Warrior is third, AFB.

Who is this post-contact beast?

According to which site? Both Zero Tackle and NRL.com have Payne Haas second (Bailey Simonsson first, AFB third).

The highest-ranked Warrior on those lists is Jackson Ford at 14th

The stat I saw was percentage of their metres in post contact metres. So those stats on NRL.com are total post contact metres and average post contact metres per game, not percentage of total metres.

I'm not sure if that's more impressive or what the wrinkle is, but it seems impressive in isolation if you're second in the comp for average metres once the line engages you.
