You’re right. I have opinions
But that’s what this forum is for. Opinions.
And it proves my point , some people on here can’t take them and resort to being personal.

I disagree, if used right he could be another Walsh, he is too good for NSW cup.
Taine was running around defenders in that Panthers game, was pretty epic running out of in-goals vs Storm in that epic too. We need a guy with ice veins to kick goals and with some field goal training he might be it. At least give him the No.14 jersey, you can’t train clutch, just look at South African cricket
If CNk is really getting slower he should try lock, Walker is uncertain to stay and Tohu’s old, CHT too small for D, Charnz would be perfect with his size, speed and passing in the middle

I agree, there are some who do make it personal rather than discussing or providing a counter argument to the point. It's easier just to say nothing if you can't add anything or perhaps use the reactions.
I honestly don't know where to stand on the SJ debate. The team and him have been so inconsistent over such a long period of time and for a number of different reasons.
Mercurial? Enigmatic? Flawed genius?
Is he a symptom of our last 12 years or a cause? A mix of both?
Prior to 2023 I was hoping he retired and we moved on. 2023 I dared to dream and was amazed he put together a season of consistency like he did. This year, he just doesn't have it. Maybe the mind does but the body is lacking? I dunno.
It's hard to argue against your point because of his career but likewise it's hard to agree given the talent he possesses.
Could over reliance on one player not be a good thing for a team sport, particularly a team like ours? I mean take him out of 2023 and the game plan doesn't work. Seemingly putting him in this year makes the team adjectly worse.
I'll buy your point of view and raise you a point that SJ is also a halves block. Maloney and Townsend left and went on to play better football and have premiership winning careers. Is that what we are seeing without him at 7 this year? Better performances from our halves without him?
Discuss.
The thing is, it’s always about patience and waiting with us while other teams give them the opportunity and we lose them, we need him playing, in the team or risk losing him.

The only thing that’s making me feel this way about SJ is that he just seems too fucking happy all the time regardless of what’s going on in our club or on the field.
It’s like he’s checked out of the game all togethor and just maintains his personal image.
He’s one of the oldest and most capped players in the most influential position but nobody respects him out there. He still has a childish demeanour about him.
Princess, baby face etc etc
We need a fucking tough, commanding bastard in the halfs. We have one in the forwards but just need one in the half’s.
Taine is already 24… turning 25 in a couple of weeks. He is as ready as can be! Give him the keys! It’s time to move on from CNK and RTS style fullbacks.

Look at how quickly Walsh beefed up. Only took him one pre-season with the bronx and he put on some decent muscle.
Your brain is a muscle too
Well technically maybe not lol.
Love Taine's disposition, talent & don't want to rush his development. Having said that, after next preseason they should use him, rightfully & righteously...he should be ready

Yea but I’ve changed in the last 48 hours.
I no longer believe in aggressive taunts to my fellow sufferers of the church of Penrose.
Ummm I like that the club reflects my own personal journey and struggles as a limited means, under resourced under dog that’s constantly up against it but continues to show up even though he doesn’t win all the time he never quits.
I like that the warriors is about the only thing that can hold my attention for 80 mins and make my heart race, nerves race, palms sweaty and feel emotions that are otherwise reserved only for the rarest occasions.
I suppose it’s love
But it’s also hate
So it’s definitely love
100% love it
Actually....contemplating making that my new username.
Asshole with an opinion.....or.....an arsehole of an opinion
Either way works for the majority on here

I am still to this day angry at the club for letting Ali go. I get pissed off whenever I think about.
Ali easily the biggest mistake in Warriors history
1. Ali
2.Cleary
3. SK contract extension
4. Bringing back RTS &!CHT
What else did I miss ??
