Having watched the Raiders over the passed few weeks they play a fast paced game, not scared to throw the ball around [to their Golden Point detriment
] and I think it is a style that will have us running around like chooks with our heads cut off.
A don't think the make up of our team will matter as we don't have 17 players smart enough to play NRL footie

I'm not sure Crappy can pick his nose - his bench selections have been pretty abysmal and he has his favourite players for sure. As Mr Gump would say when the team is named on a Tuesday - its like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get.........................

Owen Cunningham (Manly) Dallas Johnson (Cowboys) Alan Tongue(Canberra) Michael Luck were all small locks.
They all played above there weight and made reputations for themselves as fearless workhorses.
As we know Cunningham and Johnson both wore the Queensland jersey and Luck got called into the squad at one time.
Jazz has those same qualities with a utility value like Tongue.
Do not think his small frame should be a concern i.m.o.
As for the team.
Would like to see the St George team be restored as it should of been the team to face the Panthers.
But Cappy knows best.
Never change a winning team ding dong Cappy.

Could I be so blunt and say "who the fuck cares anymore what the team comprises of, unless Cappy is sent packing"
I'd pick that exact team and for those same reasons, nice work.

Time to start dropping big names to buck some ideas up.

Sam Tomkins greatest talent was completely wasted at fullback, and in my humble opinion, so is Loloheas.
Sam, like Tui, was a sharp thinking stepper with wicked acceleration who could have made a huge difference if he had played inside Johnson.
If you want to see Tui in his element, re-watch the match winning try he set up against the Roosters. With brutal acceleration and a perfect sense of when and where to step, he turned the Roosters inside out to send Roger Tuivasa-Sheck over the line. This is what Tui does and he does it brilliantly..as good as if not better than Johnson.
He can't do this from fullback nor from the wing as the last player to receive the ball if it doesn't get dropped before it gets to him!
In the last two games Fusitua played fullback (Dragons and Tonga) he showed enough to excite me and he has much more chance of breaking the line than Tui imo.
Tommys time is up! Thanks for the great service crazy-eyes but the modern game has moved on from you. We all know Cappy is going to reinsert Vatuvei as soon as he is ready so it's pointless omitting him from your preferred team, or positioning him elsewhere.
Picture this; 2 insanely fast, ridiculously wicked side-steppers fragmenting defensive lines on every attacking raid. Almost every time Shaun shapes to run he collapses the oppositions structured defensive plays. They have NO FUCKEN IDEA where he is going to run and it's a weapon we don't use often enough. Imagine having 2 of him!
It may not be textbook footy...but the Warriors are not a textbook team!
Clearly we have defensive issues but our current attacking structures are both impotent and glaringly predictable.
Fragment the defense, turn them around, support the ball runner....and watch the points come!
As our defense appears to be unfixable...scoring ALOT more points is our only hope.
As for team selection (just to stay on topic) all I want to see is
1-Fusitua
6-Lolohea
7-Johnson
9-Luke with Jazz to spell him 15-20 minutes either side of half-time.
and the 3 fittest strongest forwards we have on the bench.

Defence
Actually morgan and Milford both spent a couple of years at fullback before moving into the halves.
See that's the way I feel about lolohea- they need to give him his shot- he's done his apprentiship he's good to go.
No need to rush ata.
