Pick Your Team Pick Your Team 2019 Rnd 8 - Warriors vs Knights

[snake77]

Interested to see if Green is named today. May give us an indication of why the Nikorima rumours have kicked off. He's getting on in age and it is an injury that can bother a player for a season.

Hopefully some of the injured players are back. Roger Tuivasa-Sheck being the major one.

 

[East Stand]

1. Roger Tuivasa-Sheck
2. Fusitua
3. Hiku
4. Herbert
5. Maumalo
6. Chanel Harris-Tavita
7. Green
8. Paasi
9. Luke
10. Ah Mau
11. Tohu Harris
12. Papali’i
13. Burr
    
14. Roache
15. Bunty
16. Blair
17. Jazz/Lisone/Sao (that order)

 

[Tragic]

Papali'i was huge last game. He really rose to the occasion...

I thought he was one of our best, its interesting because he has been underwhelming up to now this year. Seemed like he came through preseason unfit and even a bit overweight or too bulked up, is that something that they would have done on purpose to helphim get through the season? Maybe the Corvo magic is not as strong as we thought because he was a liability up to last week then looks like he got match fit and was a defensive beast.

One this is for sure we are going to test the Corvo magic. His record of getting his squads fit and making the finals speak for itself. They don't miss to much. The way things are going this year he'll have another mark on the not making the 8 side of the ledger.

Man, someone should print screen those poll results and send the to SK. Or maybe radiosport if you actually want an intelligent response?

97 votes to 0 in favour of Herbert at my time of viewing. I have never seen a more conclusive result on a poll.

I didn't get to watch the game as I am over in Europe for a few weeks, but I trust the Forum judgement on Herbert. Can't wait to see him in action. To not have one side of the field shut down should make a big difference to this side, provided we aren't about to enter meltdown anyway.

 

[Gizzyfan]

Are there any injury updates anywhere? Roger Tuivasa-Sheck Green and Fusitua are certainties if fit.

 

[gpred]

A lot of Warriors fans over the years avoided watching games so that they could check the result first. I used to think they were soft.

Oh they're still soft. Seeking a less challenging version of any raw experience is pretty much the definition of soft.

You just don't see it that way, as you're one of them now. I completely understand you're reasons though. It sounds nice

Reports from the club are not worth anything. Green has been about to play each week until he’s not. Kearney didn’t know Roger Tuivasa-Sheck not playing despite everyone else knowing. Kata was in doubt until his neck injury/ thigh injury/ compassionate leave/ dropping came up.

We have naming rules so the betting market has certainty but its bordering on bringing the game into disrepute when the club starts lying to the public about the team.

Another low intensity way to go is to listen on the radio and read the game day thread. Not seeing the action, and just hearing the commentaries, take a lot of the stress out. The benefit is you still get to enjoy the live action. Then you can watch the relay the next day and see it all.

 

[Pricey]

Jazz to go and audition for Jackarse 3 only place they need a tough midget
Blair can go audition for once were warriors 3 they need another wannabe tough guy who does too much weights but not enough speedwork
Kata can paint himself Blue and take dopey smurfs role

Chanel Harris-Tavita and Hayze to be half pairing if Green still out nothing left to lose and Tohu Harris aint no half but is a top notch backrower
Herbert in for dopey smurf
Sao in for wannabe tough guy who does one hitup a game
Hiku to pair up with the Fusitua and Harris on the right
Sao to go left with Herbert

 

[Beastmode]

Hiku is currently our best ball playing outside back. Better than Skeck, better than all of them.

ridiculous statement.

I get it’s to trigger a reaction,but u do realise that you come across as a petulant child right?

Even if Green is ready to come back, it looks to me that he obviously won't be resigned after his third year and that he is likely to break down again

Not that ridiculous, who is a better ball playing outside back in our squad?
AK probably but no proof of that in 1st grade and we play him in the halves so not really.
Roger Tuivasa-Sheck? Not seen much ball playing from him, he might be better but doesn't do it enough.
Kata? Ken? Fusitua? That would be a negative.
Herbert? Haven't seen that part of his game.

It might be a sad indictment on our team but that doesn't make it not true or ridiculous.
