Team vs Tits

[Dirty Hoe]

hes been named in the burleigh bears side for this weekend

 

[Iafeta]

No Toopi?

Poor Ivan. There goes half the game plan.

Oh well, at least we still have tactic A: Bomb to Manu

 

[One Warrior]

Lillyman not considered apparently due to a foot injury.

 

[Mr Angry]

Locke should be fullback, Seymour 5/8. Can't say I rate Cleary, this just confirms it

How does this hooker HEREMAIA go? I havent seen much of the guy at all.

Pretty average last season, but pre-season reports suggest he is much improved.

think that one went with Stacey, he wasnt giving his last trick to Ivan

 

[what ever]

The team looks okay. 5 man bench, hope that royal is dropped. dont rate him. Vulcans team looks okay too. finally have a winning coach in charge. Good luck to both teams.

 

[MKEB...]

Did I read it correct that Blinky is playing in Stand-off?
I also thought that Laiseni was at Cronulla.

 

[ozbash]

Tosh is back home and, yes, the blinky one will be at #6. Should be interesting actually. Good on Gemmell for trying something different.

Paddy played a fair bit of junior footy at Te Atatu as a stand-off.

Tosh has been back for a while I think.

 

[Rich102]

What happened to Peter Cook from the U20's? He was injured late in the season.
Where is he playing this year?

 

[Martli]

Check out this balls up :lol:

Three other players will make their first appearances for the Warriors -- the halfback and five-eighth pairing of Brett Seymour and James Maloney, and prop James Maloney, who is among the reserves.

Also said that Maloney played for Manly. Is that true or another balls up? We sure as hell didn't get him from there...

 

[Lego_Man]

I'm noticing a distinct absence of Shaun Johnson in that Vulcans lineup.

 

[Penrose Warrior]

Because Shaun Johnson is a U20 player?

 

[Martli]

Yeah Johnson is still playing for the Junior Warriors.

Tosh was playing Fox Memorial footy for Papakura last year.

paddy was picked up by the warriors while playing stand off...he actually goes alright at 6, hes gets the ball out quickly to his old side men. he fancies himself as a kicker too, but hes more arse than class with that

 

[Meth]

Its hard to tell in Round 1, but straight away I am most disappointed to see Moon at 18 and Ropati in the starting line up. Ropati has to prove himself in attack and fix up his defense quickly.

Will be interesting to see how the bench go and how the halves go.

 

[Lego_Man]

Because Shaun Johnson is a U20 player?

Easy mistake to make. I could have sworn he wasnt eligible this year, must have been confusing him with someone else.

 

[Rich102]

I just can't see any sense in putting McWade on the bench.
The coaches must know how he's going: if he's good enough, put him at fullback, if not off to the Vulcans.
What is bringing him on part way going to prove?
Lance would be better off having a breather and going into dummy half fresh.
Muddy thinking.
Are we going to have Moon & JRo job sharing next?
