Pick Your Team 2018 Rnd 22 - Warriors vs Knights

​

After the Round 21 game against the St George-Illawarra Dragons at WIN Stadium do you want to see any changes for the Round 22 game against the Newcastle Knights Mt Smart Stadium?

Promotions?
Demotions?
Any new injury concerns?
Any returning players?
Any tweaks to the bench?

Discuss...

 

[kbazi]

Same team but Vuna or Satae in for Lisone.

Open to Hiku for Kata.

 

[Defence]

Sao for the suspended lisone.

 

[blue bells]

Sao for the suspended lisone.

yea i like him or Satae

 

[AlexM]

V the knights , could potentially rest some of our guys e.g Luke.
Would like to see Peta get another run, just cause.

No we can't afford to rest anybody, we need to secure a top eight spot.

Yeah but it's the knights.....

 

[xWarrior]

Yeah but it's the knights.....

That's we said against the titans....

Gotta take every game seriously or else we will see a repeat of the Penrith and GC games. Had so many injuries all season we gotta try and keep same combos going into finals

 

[Four Red Stars]

Sao for Lisone.

Too late in season for other changes. We’ve made our bed, time to support regardless.

However, I would be interested in:
Hiku replacing Kata (must release his winger)
Lawton replacing Tevaga
Sao to take final bench spot

 

[bruce]

Lawton replacing Tevaga

Replacing a tacklebot...in the Warriors...are you joking?

 

[bruce]

Hiku replacing Kata (must release his winger)

The only change I can go with. Ken is starving and it is a waste of talent.

Lisone has potential. But seeing as that's a dirty word I'd let him go back to ISP and work off those pie guts. When he's converted that potential into real deal ass kicking reality he can come back to the top grade and stay there for the rest of his career. Needs to wake the fuck up to his future.

 

[bruce]

Lisone has potential.

9 tackles none missed in 11 minutes, played the ball in 2 seconds!!! 3 runs for 29 minutes. He sure has potential but Bunty keeps it going at that rate and Sam is a loose cannon.

Problem is if he loses the weight he’s to small and would also then be to light and would offer even less... what would his best position be then?

If he could be trusted he would make a good edge forward. That's where his physical talent is. He's fast and agile, and can pass the ball.

But it's the stuff he's got downloaded into his brain. You just can't get past that.

He walks and talks like a meat head. Therefore I am bound by the dictates of reason to conclude that he is indeed a meat head.

 

[Fearmuss]

Same team except Sao/Satae for Lisone, Beale for Kata: Hiku can defend at wing and attack at centre. Tevaga for less minutes at the end 20 of each half we have a fairly good pack now so they can generate ruck speed and second phase, then Tevaga can come on and exploit that.

Dreaming though... it will be exactly the same team and same bench strats.

After catching up on a bit of ISP this year Satae and Sao are the only forwards who aren't complete retards and deserve a run: that team seems infested with lazy lazy penalty magnets who build bad habits because of the even lower reffing standard in ISP - honestly should be getting their arses kicked by coaching staff.

Exactly that one for me too.

 

[wrighty]

This is another "must win" game.

We finish

Knights
Dogs
Panthers
Raiders

And to be sure of a place in the 8 need to win two more games. The Knights are the easiest of what we have left, plus we need to start winning at home. We are 4-5 at home. So need to turn that around against the knights on Friday at Mt Smart.

I wouldn't drop Kata as he made some key defensive plays.
