[tajhay]

Uninspiring. Same shit, different team. Good luck to all the new guys in the team.

 

[Afakasi247]

Yep. Gavet gonna replace the shit out of Lisone come game day.

 

[eudebrito]

Would've been nice to see heads roll, but these are the players we have left, going down with the ship.

I can't bring myself to resent cappy too much, he keeps giving these guys chances to redeem themselves, they usually wait a week or 2 before throwing in the towel again.

Makings of a decent bench for a change if Lisone drops out, he deserves too.

 

[Apus]

So......Sao is the only player dropped? Really?

 

[rocketman]

Bullshit team

 

[Waiting For Premiership]

Totally gutless team pick, Get the fuck back to Aussie Andy McFuckalot and take that team with u.

 

[Warriors95]

Why do they keep persisting with Wright when Maumalo must near be the top try scorer in the Intrust Super Premiership?

Why is Fusitua playing Fullback this weekend when he is a winger who the club tried to turn into a centre?

Why is Wells not playing Fullback this weekend when he is clearly a much better option?

Why haven't Lisone and Gubb been given a spell in reserve grade?

 

[Diesel]

Wells should debut on the wing this weekend

 

[1995Warriorsfan]

It's funny a few months ago I was excited to see the team for the start of the season now I don't really care.

I had high expectations that the team would make the top 8. I guess it was based a lot on media expectations.

With the team changing every week I just don't know where they will finish. Most likely another season out of the top 8.

I will continue to support them no matter what but I just want to see a team that gives a fuck about playing good footy.

I guess defence is part of the equation.

Why is Fusitua playing Fullback this weekend when he is a winger who the club tried to turn into a centre?

He did not disgrace himself playing fullback.

Why is Wells not playing Fullback this weekend when he is clearly a much better option?

Would prefer Wells to start on the wing as fullback can leave a newbie very exposed.

Why haven't Lisone and Gubb been given a spell in reserve grade?

Agree with you on this one and I have been a Gubb fanboi.

 

[Horriors2013]

Can we be bothered any more?

It's like collecting moments of disappointment with this lot.

Last night they completed the set by adding, 'full team on paper, in good form, big occasion, still got thrashed'.

 

[Leaguegod]

Is Konnie injured? he had to be given a shot after last night, surely he makes the 17, there must be some personal shit going on, poor bastard deserves some game time, even if this season is ggooonnnee at least Kon would get another 20 FG games of experience, J Wright offers nothing that limp dick couldn't even get back into the field of play from half a metre out and then just didn't care, that c**t is part of the 'no bro' culture.

Like me I guess you must enjoy funpark rides, especially the roller coaster.

 

[pantera nhl]

Cappy must want to get sacked.
Well he knows better, Its his team.
Wells Maumalo should go elsewhere
No good making first grade with this
team, they will make you part of this circus

 

[pantera nhl]

Cappy must want to get sacked.
Well he knows better, Its his team.
He is the warriors saviour

 

[koolkat]

Wright oh for fuck sake...come on that should be wells.put Lisone back too lock.but instead it's Charley mud fuck this

 

[tajhay]

I agree, however Wells has played far more fullback through the grades than Fusitua has. I would imagine Wells positioning might be better in that regard. Fusitua did OK TBH so i can understand him not being moved away from that role. He was the least of our problems.

I feel like there needed to be some dices rolled, and havent seem much from this team naming, so somewhat disappointed.

 

[Horriors2013]

Why do they keep persisting with Wright when Maumalo must near be the top try scorer in the Intrust Super Premiership?

Because even thought Wright ain't going to win you a game, he's not likely to lose it either-his positional play is solid which is what we need at this stage.

Why is Fusitua playing Fullback this weekend when he is a winger who the club tried to turn into a centre?

He played FB for U20s and was damn good at it. Safe as houses and ran back strongly-probably the logical move tbh.

Why is Wells not playing Fullback this weekend when he is clearly a much better option?

See above

Why haven't Lisone and Gubb been given a spell in reserve grade?

Lisone was all at sea in defence-he was directly responsible for at least 2 of those tries. Gubb..well running out of options now..

 

[eudebrito]

Wells is unproven, all maumalo proved was he's worse than wright last year.

With more injuries can't drop more than a couple, Ben Matulino was soft, offered nothing, would he suddenly discover week in week out motivation in reserve grade?
