Team v Sharks

I seem to remember Cappy indicating publicly that Leuluai was first cab off the rank- unless I am remembering wrong.

re the relevance of Townsend and Maloney opting out; the Sharks can't laugh at us as if they swapped Robson for Townsend and got the better deal. Townsend wanted out of NZ and back to Sydney...

Yep we would have held on to them if we could, we cannot pin this one on the warriors.

Maloney wanted to go home to NSW at the end of the 2011 season, he was persuaded (or had his request denied - same thing really) to stay for the final year of his contract, 2012.

He really put in that final year, when others weren't.

Is it true he was also a very popular, and positive, member of our squad during his time here?

Yeah, and Tony Iro absolutely threw him under the bus by dropping him to the bench for the round 26 game in 2012, his final game. It was a disgraceful act for a guy who got us to a GF the year before and whilst he wasn't world class in 2012, I didn't see any signs that he'd put the cue in the rack - Lewis Brown style. Said it all about Tony Iro as a person and why he'd never be anything more than an NRL coach's boot shiner.

I just thought the other teams marked up on him in the 2nd year but now I know he was as homesick as Tompkins, that couldve distracted him in the next year. Probably felt more of "just at work" when he was playing then 'I love playing for this club'. Pure speculation of course as to probably a factor for his 2nd years not so good year.

Anyway, I hope Maloney gets f@#ked up this week the ungrateful bastard lol. I remember he shut down our horny Shauny earlier this year. It was like the Warriors didnt change the names of their calls and Maloney heard Johnson calling them. Johnson needs to get one back on him.

No I dont watch reserve grade unless I kind of have to. Sounds like they like to pick on the old fellas. He shouldnt be getting smashed anyway given his position..unless his hooker is Hingano who benefits from his injury and therefore lobs the passes lol.

You should watch it.

Then you'd know what you're talking about..

Who are you talking about? Maloney? He was here for 3 years, mate. Some of the stuff you've been coming out with recently makes me think you either just started watching league this year, or just started following the Warriors this year...

No no no.. you've taken it the wrong way, Miss Tackles..

I meant you would have a greater insight into the transition of our NSW Cup players to NRL...
If you watched it that is...

It's all good mate. .. :cool:

I think a lot of people will be pleasantly surprised this week. I think the boys will get up.
We've been building well for a few weeks - TL got injured 9 minutes into the game last week...didn't realise it was THAT early. The whole backline shuffle stuffed up our momentum and cohesion.
If SJ and TL are fit for the whole game and we come out switched on, I think we'll take them.
Even though our attack was crap last week and the Roosters big pack got on top of us, we closed the game out and had good D.

Of course, it helps if the Sharkies are a bit flat, so hoping Queensland smack those boys about tonight

Yeah I recall that he clocked out horribly at the back end of the season.

I don't trust my recall though.

Nor many people's here either.

Trust your recall bro he didn't want the Warriors to take their option up for his final year so he turned into a lil bitch as some sort of F.U gesture aimed indirectly back to the club.

I hope we smash the merkin
