Pick Your Team NZ Warriors v Cronulla Sharks - [Round 5, 2026]

Gotta add for those that want Leiataua rushed back in, saw enough in that NSW cup game that despite scoring a try and is a strong runner ball in hand.....he is still lazy asf off the ball. The first try they scored simply no urgency and burned on the outside....constantly backing off when they spread the ball his way.....showed zero urgency on that long Mellars break despite being the closest to him to get into a support position...lazy fucker didnt even get out of 2nd gear....has his up sides but c'mon dude, going a hundy when youve only got the ball in your hand is soo old school warriors.....get with the program.
Wtf? Lol.... You're talking like Ali is a wiley old veteran that has played 200 plus games and we've given him enough chances already? Smh.....Ali has just turned 23. Hes only played 18 games of 1st grade. Most of the forum wanted Boyd to stay in NSW Cup this year. Boyd is now one of the form halves of the competition.

Eli Katoa, Apparently he was a big for nothing sloth. Get him out.of here.
I personally was a big fan and wish he stayed with us. He turned into a beast with Melbourne.
Ali has plenty of potential. Let the kid find his feet.
Singling him out as a lazy fucker when half of our experienced players could slot into that category after our last performance vs Tigers.
 
Battle of the blues! Mets back to cup would be the best thing for him. We don't need to rush him back for the sake of it. Last week proved he's not ready. Demi needs to get minutes. He offers more than TSS. Roger's performance warrants AKP to get a start. Cut the cord now, Roger's not here next year. Bleed someone else. CHT back to 6. Jacko to retain his starting spot. Pomps can have another week or 23 on maternity leave. Plug Ali back to start. F**k the Sharks & the herindous stadium of there's!

According to his current contract CHT isn’t here next year either 👀
 
I still reckon Metcalf should be given game time in nsw cup or off the bench. But I doubt Webster would do that. Not blaming him for last week at all. But that’s the way I would of gone
I would still have him in nsw cup. I think from everything ive seen the biggest hurdle is the contact not the fitness.

Go get some contact in where it doesn’t matter and come up with confidence.

Yeah mate. Metcalf was set a tough task
Nearly 10 months away from the game and asked to play 80
Found it very strange considering that we were undefeated. I have mentioned before that Webster is still in a learning curve but others disagree. Oh well he certainly ain't Bennett or Bellamy

Which star players did Bennett and Bellamy make play NSW Cup on the come back after an injury?

Good point and you are probably right
Comes down to the medical guys if he was ready
Did Bellamy and Bennett ever make a star player stay on for 80 if they were obviously struggling 🤔
