Comments? I think 2010 looks best still..

 

[murraymob]

this years team will need to win or at least make the grand final to be on even footing

 

[billy2]

Kevin Locke is still the best player i've seen in the Warriors NYC.

He goes OK now, but at NYC level he was electrifying.

 

[shasha]

The warriors inaugral under 20's team would have to go close.

Althought they didn't make or win the the grand final, from my memory Brisbane beat them in the dying seconds to go through to the grand final.

Considering I think 2008 was probably close to the most talented year of 20's players.

Cant remember most of the team but I remember it had Russel Packer, Matulino and the list im sure would go on.

Warriors 2008 was the best forward pack the Warriors have had imo.

8. Ah Mau
9. Pawley
10. Packer
11. Fai
12. Purcell
13. Taylor

14. Mara
15. Poching
16. Steve Rapira
17. Afioga

Should've won that semi, conceding 2 tries in the final 3 minutes to lose, with the final try being quite freakish. You could make a first grade team out of the guys who promoted from that Semi.

1. Locke
2. Bill Tupou
3. Willie Tupou
4. Hoffman
5. Yow Yeh
6. John
7. Hunt
8. Packer
9. McCullough
10. McGuire
11. Fai
12. Rapira
13. Glen

14. Mara
15. Dodds
16. Lui
17. Taylor

Warriors 2010 backline is the best imo. The 2011 version has Hurrell, that's the biggest difference with Omar, Carlos, Feki all being a year more experienced as well.

1. Fish
2. Slaimankhel
3. Likiliki
4. Feki
5. Niko
6. Tuimavave
7. Johnson

2010 wins it.

 

[Noa]

Yeah I think laat warriors side would beat this years pretty comfortably

 

[ozbash]

Yeah I think laat warriors side would beat this years pretty comfortably

I think this year we have slightly better players, but last year we had a better team.

[Noa]
