Post Match Warriors v Dolphins - [Round 12, 2024]

[Wrighty]

Especially the uglier ones.

Wait what?

What is happening to this thread !!! LOL

 

[Tragic]

As I mentioned in the gameday thread, the minute we switched up to the NSWarriors, we stopped giving up soft ruck penalties. I'm pretty sure we were giving up multiple penalties for slowing the ruck, cos the old fellas couldn't get up and back 10. Last two weeks we have looked much fitter and faster and no surprise, winning the penalty and 6 again counts.

Plus AFB not there slowing down our attack on 4th tackle.

 

[Makasene]

Kosi is done for me, he looked terrible live.

He is what he is

3rd or 4th string cover.

Personally I think it's very valuable to be in such a pickle and still have the option to pick someone with 29 NRL games under their belt.

 

[Canonball]

If TMM‘s head is too fragile for hooker, it’s too fragile to play NRL

yeah, it's a bit a dumb argument eh? Can be whacked in the temple wherever you play - I don't think hooker really is any more risky in that respect than any other position - TMM's tackle technique is good too, and we're too used to seeing Egan dropping his head onto a large prop's pointy bits - Hooker would probably suit Te Maire's game, as back up to Egan of course

To be fair even as our 4th string winger I think he is poor

An underrated aspect of putting him there is that he could offer a kicking game out of dummy half.

TMM has played 114 matches across both First Grade, 3 test matches, and Reserve Grade. Not one of those matches has been at hooker. It is an interesting idea and Kite to fly as Foran has made a good fist of it from time to time, however I don't see Webster trying it realistically given he has never played there before and Webster needs to win now and wouldn't have the patience for TMM to have 2-3 matches to figure out the role and the likelihood of losing those matches while he was figuring stuff out.

Didn’t look much better on tv either…

Honestly why isn’t he transitioning to the forwards ? Still thinks he’s a winger does he ???

Yeah never gonna happen- if any of the halves are gonna play hooker it’s cht.

 

[Noitall]

Agree. You never know though how far our injuries could go? Roache out with surgery, so in order would be Egan, Lussick, CHT, next would potentially be TMM depending on what shape the injuries were inflicted on us if it came to that? it doesn’t come to that

Genius is seeing beyond the curve and what others can’t. Most thought I was crazy calling out Tohu weeks back.

 

[kiwitoffee]

wtf
Dallin Watene-Zelezniak

ZERO TACKLES!

You've gone from TMM should retire, he's shit, he's taking up space in the top 30, surely an 18 year old kid offers more, if we had a decent half we would be beating the Panthers - 4 line break assists and 3 try assists later - I've always said he should be in the 17 he should be bench hooker, I'm a genius.

Does that about cover it?

Too busy showing off that fly as mullet.

He should retire if he plays 6, cos he’s shit there and taking up space in the 30 when a 18yr kid could do better. He went missing so when he reappeared as a decent half, we won. So he should be in the. 17.


Yeah bro you nailed it

Someone said something about seeing beyond the curve and what others cant earlier I think

He gets a bad wrap.

He was solid as hell yesterday

Early lost ball but came back strong, ran well, carried hard out of our end.

Couldn't have asked for any more

I still think your crazy

I'm not seeing TMM at hooker. Why do you think he would go well there?

Would much prefer CHT at 6 with Taine at 14.

 

[Warriorsitsouryear]

I think unless there is a niggle players almost always back up, even 48 hours. Especially now teams have 3 byes a year...

They will try to back up but often 1-2 will get banged up. I forgot that Robson is also the NSW hooker = 6 players.
