Pick Your Team Warriors v Dolphins - [Round 22, 2025]

NZWarriors.com

Can't seeing us winning this one with the status quo. Lose the ruck and we have no x-factor to wrestle it back. It beggars belief Dallin is lauded by the club - he can't make a correct decision under pressure. It's not good. They can't keep covering for him. He cost us 12-18 points. The newbie 20-something year olds of other clubs do a far more reliable job. At least Taine provides spark.
Play Ali or lose him.
It's going to be a painful two weeks. Don't waste your money betting on the wahs.

Bit tough on CHT but we have beaten the Dolphins by running over the top of them.

Freddy can spell Healy and play at Prop at a pinch if Healy is going ok and we lose a Prop.

I have Ali on his better side in his specialist position, being minded by Mr Fix It Pomps.

The old dogs who can tackle lock down the left edge....Roger gets starved of ball, but ya cannot have everything. Defence first, attack second.

Unless we wanna go 0:6 to finish the season TT needs to be fullback and TMM needs to be 6, tough on CHT but unless he has a long boot to play 7, Boyd’s 7 and we need creative players around him instead of using the same bloody setup for Metcalf on Boyd

That stale attack under pressure was painful to watch

3 games in with Boyd and losing to Titans should have lost to Knights and average win over the tigers, and losing to Penrith B at home before, we are playing like a 8-12 team right now. Settle for 12:12 and knocked out first round if we make it, or problem solve to fix obvious problems

I know the if you’re off by 1% blah blah but losing to a bottom team at home by more than 2 scores means you’re f***ed unless you face reality, Titans are not Raiders, they’re s*** 😂
 
Thought Pomps actually shored up that right edge pretty well when moved there. Would be tempted to keep him there, Capes is clearly busted and hampered, which probably isn't helping Dals decision making. Is it time for EIT to come in and play on Roger's side? or is he exclusively 2nd row now? I thought Webby was all about 'Next man up' and NOT playing guys busted this season.

If you said at the start of the year that we would lose Barnett, Metcalf, Egan, and CHT would have a mini form dip, barely anyone here would think we would still be in with a chance in any given week.

I await the usual posting how we better put fifty and make a statement win if we are to do anything in the finals posts......

Some people never learn.

We can win this game.

In our favor is we know that Webster ball troubles the Dolphins. Sure make changes to the team if you must but don't throw out the one thing we have going for us, the game plan the Phins struggle against.

Not saying we should change our style, but we aren't even playing Webster ball atm.

- Poor tackling/first contact
- Poor discipline
- Poor kick chase

Team appears to have hit a wall, and Webby is trying to patch work his way out of it with busted veterans as he did in 2024.

Exactly this.

We’ve seen it all before and seen the results.

It’s so obvious the young guys are in form and the veterans are physically fatigued. Exactly the same as last year and exactly the same players.

For all Websters good stuff this is frustrating to watch.
