Team List NRL 2020 Round 10 - Warriors vs Sharks TEAM LIST

[Dunedin warrior]

4th in tackles made and 9th in run metres Tohu Harris is having an incredible season which is being hidden in our mediocrity.

He’s great in either position but I think our pack is better with him at 13 especially if Katoa is back on an edge.

 

[Fearmuss]

He is wasted in the middle, you lose so much of his upside and it is a higher wear position.

Honestly his edge was deadly in 2018, put him back with Hiku and Nikorima/Chanel Harris-Tavita and score some points.

 

[RMatenga]

Not really, he's a tackle bot that's played on the edge.

Papalii seemed to have a little mojo back after a rest. Has more punch.

Murchie is a big body but doesnt have any punch with ball in hand as yet.

 

[Fonzie]

Papaliis job in attack seems to be to smash onto the ball short off Green in the right, get a quick ptb, and set us up to go back left. Does that limited role pretty well.

 

[Dunedin warrior]

He is wasted in the middle, you lose so much of his upside and it is a higher wear position.

If you got Roger Tuivasa-Sheck running off him like McKinnon used to do off Rapira and Price he could be even more effective. Often he has his arms free after a good run and there’s no support to offload to.
Agree about the risk of wear and tear though especially given his injury history over the last few years.

Thanks Riz but this is page 2

Like the mainland way of thinking lol. I think he's relishing the role of being able to pick options from the middle of the field, cover either side, even move into the line if there's a chance. Its just a shame there's a bit lacking on the edges to capitlise on that. Hope it comes

 

[Defence]

For me this is probably the strongest side we’ve fielded all year.
The sharks on the other hand are probably putting out their worst- they’re a bit like manly where they could give it a shake at full strength but they don’t have much depth.
Didn’t help losing xerri and Morris before the season started and with moylan and fafita out I reckon we match up well with them.
Its a smart move playing harris on the right edge for this one- their left side defence is terrible- chads a turnstile and not sure what’s happened to graham- 3rd most missed tackles in the comp- he used to be the man.
Can’t believe I’m saying it but I think we’ll win this.

 

[Off The Bench]

Depends how you look at it. If Tohus losing mobility with age his time on the edge might be over. The plan might be Katoa and Ben Murdoch-Masila on the edges next year, in which case may as well start as we mean to go on.

Isn't Ben Murdoch-Masila older an fatter ?

Jack Murchie is dropped from the 17 and Jazz and Lawton are listed ahead of him.
Lawton continues to get a forward starting spot,

My mind is now made up about Payten and would prefer to have SK back over him. Lawton was only used as a hooker by SK.

I can't believe your saying this is as well...

We'll get smashed.

 

[Billy Teets James]

Isn't Ben Murdoch-Masila older an fatter ?

Around the same age. Ben Murdoch-Masila is maybe a year older than Tohu Harris.
He's in really good shape despite not playing at all this year.
And the break has allowed him to get over little niggling injuries.

By the time he comes to us we should have a prime & ready to go Ben Murdoch-Masila.

There's a reason SK got the sack...Lawton is not a hooker...he's a Jazz v2.0 but maybe a bit more active or dynamic.

I'm pleased he's in the side...but don't want him selected as a hooker.

I will be hoping sharks win on the weekend to nail Payten out of the race. C'mon assign Matt Cecchin for this one NRL!

Haha this is funny coz it’s true.

Well I’ve talked myself into it now so there’ll be no talking me out of it (at least until half time ).

Respect your views Swanley, but do you think Lawton is an NRL standard forward?
Bearing mind the NRL is the best comp in the world?

 

[Boats n Hoes]

Followed the Sharks closely the last couple of seasons and dont worry they can definitely self destruct with the best of them. Just when they get on a roll they can come with an error or 10 that stops all momentum, there set completion rate is way worse than ours, so your never out of a game with them if u can keep it close, and as Defence pointed out that Chad/Wade Graham edge has been leaking points like a...um... big leaking thing....so definitely an edge to target.

Problem is they also have strike right across the park and if they set up camp long enough down our end Shaun Johnson is likely to tear us new one.

If numbering is anything to go by glad to see Tohu Harris back out on an edge...its like Payten was reading this thread
