General Warriors Preseason 2026

He's our best. Then Healey. Then maybe Erin Clarke or maybe not. Then the younger cohort.

Who do you prefer from who we have to choose from?

Healey 9 and Cht/Martin 14.
don’t think we missed Egan at all for that period time he was out, I prefer Healeys tempo around the ruck, he’s always threatening and willing to have a go

Ignore him, bloke seems to have a weird hate for Egan.

Cces always brings receipts

That's all well and good, but if you are constantly the 5th or 6th man due to you being the next cab off the rank, the player themselves will suffer due to possibly not getting any game time. Multiply that by the 17 teams in the NRL and that's a lot of players potentially missing out on showing their ability.

I think halving the amount of players by limiting it to 5 instead of 6 is the best way forward. Or even require the player to get rotated like the 18th man does.

I get what you mean. Ta

If we have to I'd go with it. I see a need for Healey to get more first grade games under his belt to get the necessary improvements I see he can get. But because he's already debuted I'm ok with him getting starts. Just not over Egan yet because I don't yet see him overtaking Wayde yet.

The NRL and tv coverage wanted ratings faster game for entertainment... They didnt factor in injuries, hias with the 4 man bench... some club games were decimated in the past and turned into 1 sided free for alls. So to address it 6 man bench but only 4 can be used What happens late in a game where all 4 have been used ... a seroius hia and/ orl broken limb.. where a player on the bench picked to cover those spots cant be used.. Whats the point?
No one knows what will happen in any game... with these rules how can you cover the unexpected?

 

[Tokyo Warrior]

I reckon keep the status quo, with the only difference being that the 18th man can be activated no matter how the HIA happened

I agree .. but hia is one thing... what about broken bones ... i dont see the 18th man in the current rules is alowed to be activated... If Ive missed something ..pls fill me in..
