Team List [2023, Finals Week 1] - Penrith Vs Warriors

[Canonball]

The oil I have is that it's a calf injury and he's out for Saturday. He will need to pull through the rehab to be ready for next weekend and isn't a certainty for that match either. Best result is that we miraculously win on Saturday and he has two weeks to get better.

can't or won't believe this - just can't see it. SJ will play, arite

Just heard on the radio they think he's a 50/50 chance of playing.

50 50 is rough, was looking forward to him running free again!

 

[The Warrior Waka]

This sucks. I Feel like a virgin thats about to get his first peice of hairy houdini but nuts in his jocks before he gets to wet his swordfish. Damn u old shaun johnson !!!
We've waited years for this!

Shit happens. There will be a plan and all this does is increase our oppositions confidence and arrogance. Their forum is more feral than the Rabbits

Boys will turn up for this . Eels showed the way.

Didn't stop them bending the cowboys over.

Without SJ it's going to be a shitshow.

I'm a glass full sort of geriatric. There are no easy games in this comp and the season so far has thrown up a heap of anomalies. We have every chance of making it happen and if we don't it won't be the lack of trying or SJ being on the park or not.
The loss of SJ will add fuel to our fire

 

[Bay39er]

If SJ doesn’t play I’ll be devastated …

…for him! He has earned his shot at redemption!

Hats off to Shaun he has redeemed himself imo we finished 4th in the regular season because of his form and his players trust/form.
Couldn't ask for anymore, any wins from here are a bonus be prepared to be devastated.
Also shot to playdaball for the oil, I didn't wanna believe another story either especially after Tohus.

Ahh That Misser Creary so crever

 

[Tonbridge(aka Swanley)]

Needs to be Volkman... Anything else is just not good coaching.

He's the only one with a long kicking game and keeps everyone else in their named positions.

If it is a calf, he's won't play again unless we somehow make the GF.

 

[Aman 2.0]

I don’t like these tactics!! I’m more worried than the fucking panthers now!!

It’s only a game..breath..it’s only a game..the world will go on…breath

 

[Lance155]

The unknown is killing me more than anything else

 

[Makasene]

Hopefully bringing Volkman in will be allowed.

A TMM / Walker halves pairing would be a disaster. Cannot see how we could muster a win with that combo.

Hopefully with Volkman, we see more of the much hyped kicking game than we did against the Dolphins.

Confirmed shaun’s out on warriors instagram page unfortunately

Oh, the drama.

Next they'll be telling us that Shaun is actually a pair of identical twins called Shane and Vaughn...
