[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

No Ropati mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

[RHYTHM AND STEALTH]

Manus back as well
Price said J Ro injured

 

[Dr Crane]

Must be injured.

I'm surprised Vatuvei returns so quickly. I'll be terrified with him vs Cronk

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Manu has a shocker and gets a week off.

Pity about Ropati, he's been showing good form. Let's hope Rovelli has learnt his lessons in PL.

 

[Scott]

Ropati has a slight injury.

I'd have prefered Hohaia at 7 instead of Rovelli.

I really don't like the look of that team. We should cream a Melbourne team without their Origin players, but on current form and with that team, I have grave doubts!

Folau jumping opposite Vatuvei. As soon as a bomb goes up ever single Warrior fan will cringe simultaneously.

As for us beating Melbourne, if we can't beat a Storm team missing 9 first choice players then we don't deserve to be anywhere near finals football and even if we make it we won't hang around for long.

I'm not saying we will win, but if we don't then we don't deserve anything other than an early end to the season.

Can't see that squad lining up on Sunday.....

Gut feeling? I only just noticed that Vatuvei and Ah Van have had their wings swapped around. That didn't work for Meli or Toopi, don't see why it would suddenly work now.

What changes can you see coming? The only other players we have who aren't injured/suspended/on Origin are Lawrie, Anderson, Byrne. Surely you're not suggesting someone new might debut?

As long as he doesn;t make Louis Anderson a late inclusion....

 

[Sanchez]

what do you have in mind for the possible changes skinner

Is Cleary presuming Crockett will get suspended?
From what I saw the sending off was more than enough punishment.

 

[THE*STORM*IDENTITY]

Greetings Warriors.

This is my opinion on a possible Storm line up:
1. Turner
2. Chambers
3. J. Smith
4. Quinn
5. Folau
6. Geyer
7. Cronk
8. Cross
9. Aubusson
10. Crossman
11. Lima
12. Donnelly
13. Tagataese

Bench:
- Manu
- Newton
- Blair
- Anderson

This will be a very hard match. An Auckland away match is always a tough task and missing 9 first choice players will make it harder. I'm predicting a Storm win by 4 points with the winning try scored out wide in the 79th minute.

He is charged, and an early guilty plea gets him two weeks. I don't believe they will
fight it.

 

[Waitakere Warrior Fan]

I'm disappointed to see Rovelli come back at halfback after Ropati's injury rather than Hohaia getting a go. I don't think Rovelli's been playing very well even in PL, so I don't think he's ready to return to the NRL.

 

[Skinner]

I don't know mate, but I think he has things up his sleeve. I can't see Manu there
for a start.

Bout time we won the Michael Moorer (spelling) trophy back
