Team List NRL 2016 Round 2 - Broncos vs Warriors TEAM LIST

[Jordan G]

The good news is the Warriors always get massive support in Brisbane. That right hand corner (right hand from the Milton entrance) supporters bay goes nuts everytime.

 

[Play The Ball]

Question.

Do you know something we dont? Is the team actually going to change or is it something youre expecting or more likely hoping for???

Nope no idea mate. Just guessing there will be changes. The same side will probably run out and I'll look like an idiot.

 

[goldcoast-warriors-fan]

I'm going to the game with a few mates as Brissy is home town now.

Will be having a few ales at a few spots prior in the Warriors (20yr Anniversary polo - love that Moko).

Have no idea where the LA is but if it's somewhere between Queen St and Caxton St, good chance we'll be there at some point

As for the game plan, I've watched both games a couple of times, the only game plan I can see revolves around inside passes to big bodies running angles into the middle third.

That and kick to the corners and aggressively pin them in.

Not much I know but I'm no McFadden

Yeah mate it's on Caxton st. There's a Warriors meet up at 5:30 there, me and my brothers going, can't wait!

“Our mindset wasn’t right in the first half against the Tigers. We were far too passive, waiting to see what would happen.

“With the right mindset in the second half we saw what this team is capable of. We have to be a lot better from the outset this week.

Apparently its just a matter of mindset

Sadly, there need to be minds involved to have a mindset, and we see nothing but the same mindless shite week after week after season after season.

There is hope though: I hope we don't embarrass ourselves this time.

Lolohea's just played a full game with Blake Ayshford, and he said he liked it how Blake was talking the whole time.

So I'd like to see Lolohea over left center, and Kata playing wing outside Ayshford for some of that also...

If they're going to learn the basics in FG then at least have a plan to teach them something...

the interesting thing I took from that... if Blake talks the whole time... what the h*ll are the others doing? I can only assume - not talking!

That's the reason you leave Tui where he is and let him develop his game.

It cracks me up how alleged experts keep missing the point that our biggest issue is defence and that and our consistency won't improve by playing weak defensive players in the place of block busting centres that leak tries.

There needs to be some big calls made with Manu and Kata in general.

Allwood, Wright, Wells seem like better options for consistency at either wing or centre.

No way Jose, leave him there all season so they know each others play. LoLo said he really appreciated the advice so will only improve.
Keeping a team stable is the key and young guys getting blooded alongside experienced guys is the best method.

 

[jonno]

Did I say in FG? What I meant was in training for FG...

 

[InsideBall]

Whatcha doing in Brisbane, Albie?

 

[FAN]

Dam.....Luke looks tubby. Either that or they have used a wide angle lense to take that shot. No no wait, it's because he is short right ??,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,RIGHT ????

 

[Jay M]

Whatcha doing in Brisbane, Albie?

Cover? with the NSW Side due to play on Saturday afternoon in Sydney - he could fly down?

 

[Jay M]

Whatcha doing in Brisbane, Albie?

is that the back of Wright's head? if so, I'm guessing Vete and Wright are both there as cover (I think they were 18th and 19th man last week)? (photo came from the warriors twitter feed a bit earlier on)

 

[InsideBall]

Well, I hope it's either they're going to be playing on Friday, or fly down and play Saturday... Both of them, especially Ablert, need game time. I want to see him put in a full shift, and try and force his way into FG, over the next couple of weeks.

 

[way2sharp]

I'm picking there will be some changes/injuries and am hoping for...

1 Roger Tuivasa-Sheck
2 Solomone Kata
3 Blake Ayshford
4 Nathaniel Roache
5 Manu Vatuvei
6 Tuimoala Lolohea
7 Shaun Johnson
8 Jacob Lillyman
9 Issac Luke
10 Ben Matulino
11 Bodene Thompson
12 Ryan Hoffman (C)
13 Simon Mannering

Interchange
14 Albert Vete
15 Sam Lisone
16 James Gavet
17 Raymond Faitala-Mariner

Ain't gonna turn Tui into a half by playing him on the wing.
Luke can play 80 and lose a k or two!
Neihana is too good for the bench.

 

[way2sharp]

is that the back of Wright's head?

Feet on the table - must be an Ozzy!

 

[Kiwi in Tasmania]

Does anyone know where the seats at suncorp called the fortress are? I am flying from adelaide there to watch my beloved warriors! And a mate got free tickets.I just hope like fuck i am not in the middle of bronx supporters. May head to this LA pub a few have mentioned. Only my 2nd time watching them live

 

[mode81]

Funny thing about the Warriors is they always rise against sides like the Broncos and Storm I expect no different tomorrow.

Suncorp has hosted some wicked memories for the Kiwis & Warriors these boys are always comfortable at that ground. Always a massive Kiwi epxat crowd there and their a pretty rowdy bunch.

These bigger name teams usually bring the best out of our team I can't wait. That prime time Friday night slot is awesome.. Broncos at home is a monumental challenge for our team.

Good thing this team can get back on the horse after a short turn around and right some wrongs.. faster start, bit more aggro, handling, defence, completions, the usual. Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, Shaun Johnson, Luke to the fore they have to lead the way in all facets.

100% agree. Ayshford & Lolohea in the centres please. Konnie & Kata only know how to run. No brains for defence.

 

[Afakasi247]

I wouldnt be surprised if Wright and Vete replaced Kata and Lillyman tbh.

Maybe:

2. Wright
3. Lolohea
4. Ayshford
5. Vatuvei

The mystery continues....
