suprised at the selections in bold, although the cowpats fans had wraps on amos, friend did well for the storm last year

hilder I dont rate and preston is going to get murdered at FB, just like he did when he played there for the sharks. can you see him out-leaping king, grothe, actually anyone over 5'7....?

Nathan Firend on the bench? Is he recovering from an injury or fully fit?

Surely a fully fit Nathan Friend is a walk-in to the starting team...

Campbell at fullback? It will be raining more bombs than Hiroshima.

Wouldn't Pearl Harbour make more sense? I mean Hiroshima only got bombed once right?

That relies on good kicking from your halves....

--> scans "Dragons" halves pairing...

--> Forecast: Chance of rain: Slight

That'll be a relief for the Warriors then. Not sure what that has to do with Campbell though.
