1. Walsh
2. Dallin Watene-Zelezniak
3. Pompey
4. Aitken
5. Montoya
6. Hiku
7. Sean O'Sullivan

Ah Mau to beat the bubble pause

Vodafone Warriors prop Leeson Ah Mau has today been granted a request to return home this week before the Government pauses its Covid-19 travel bubble with Australia for at least eight weeks.

Following yesterday’s announcement that captain Roger Tuivasa-Sheck was finishing his career with the club to fly home, Vodafone Warriors CEO Cameron George has confirmed the experienced Ah Mau will also miss the rest of the season.

“With his family now back home, Leeson asked for permission to be reunited with them back in Auckland,” he said.

“This is a very difficult time as we all know. New Zealanders have only until the end of the week to fly home. If Leeson doesn’t get home this week, he would be over here on his own until the end of September and potentially longer.

“The needs of our players’ families have always been a priority.”

Before today’s announcement, the 31-year-old Ah Mau was in line to be the only player to line up in every game this year, making his 18th consecutive appearance in last Saturday’s encounter with South Sydney.

Ballsy call with no contract for 2022

Ballsy call with no contract for 2022

Didn't we have someone do similar last year - Paasi maybe? Ended up in the UK which wasn't surprising.

 

[Lance155]

Lol what is this shit. Sean O'Sullivan and Hiku in the halves and Otokulo to start, gee wouldn't want to be Kodi haha

 

[jonesy101]

The naming of Nikorima as a bench utility with Hiku playing as a makeshift five-eighth is a strong indication that they see him primarily as a bench utility for 2022 if he stays.

 

[Ref]

I've seen worse teams in the dark days of the late 90s or even some of the line ups SK persisted with.
It won't happen but Walsh to the halves (yes I know Brown won't be moving him) and Vailea in the outside backs would be good to see.
