Could be that he’s first receiver on last tackles.

We'll be confused alright! Players out of position trying to do things they don't usually do.
So you think he moves into first receiver for every end of set play? Sounds like disaster to me!
Only if Mr Rugbaleague at the NRL announces a rule change where touch ingoal counts as a try to the attacking team.
We’ve been waiting for a Chur, Wahs! from the NRL…We saved a few jobs in the NRL organisation if nothing else.
I like your thinking. A 10/20 in your own half wouldn't go amiss as well.
Wow what an F up, how do you hurt your calf when you were deliberate rested last week?
This is like a Dan Carter 2011 groin fiasco
Gotta be Volkman at 7, I don’t care how much of a downgrade etc etc, we need to keep everyone in their own positions instead of doing last minute homework trying to play out of position against a team going for a 3-peat
Even the Panthers had major issues when Crighton moved to fullback for Edwards against the Eels, that’s as good as scratching 2 top players from their designated positions

Man I was actually so excited. I mean I still am, but he’s literally the most important player in our side. I get that there’s a second life but this is pretty deflating news tbh.
Hate to be the glass half full guy but the Eels did beat Penrith 2 weeks ago with Moses out. If Daejarn Asi can do it so can our boys!
I really like Tuaupiki but can't help feel that he is a 'nearly' man. Looks dangerous but hasn't actually done anything yet. I think similar to Walsh last year, our team don't know how to use him and as a result he makes lots of meters and looks dangerous, but eventuates to nothing.
So far anyways. Still young and I believe in Webby.
But if CNK goes down for a few games next year I feel putting RTS back there and replacing him with one of our jnr centres would give us better consistency in being able to stick to our same game plan moving forward.
I thought Volk was hoofing them pretty far, almost too far for his chase who didn’t do a very good job of smashing the dolphins on receipt either.
Yeah nah he has to play and he has to kick, Penrith will muller us if we are making 40m sets with a 20m kick.
Or they throw the plan out and do a bunch of risky shit on the last - which they haven’t done all year and won’t start now.
The curse is real.

If we lose it will be MSS and will be jam packed regardless who runs out
If we win, it's a GF qualifier - one of the 6th biggest games of the season a long with the 3 origins, the other qualifer and the GF
No need to worry about ticket sales for that game either.
The Johnson loss could be a blessing. Because if they go through to the final it will be us and them, and there’s no way we’re beating them twice in a finals series. As long is we’re competitive and strong defensively this week I’ll be happy. Bring Shan back next week to start our run. Not saying happy to lose but.
This is what we do, we construct narratives to find silver linings.
Warrior life eh.
I was thinking if we do pull off an admirable loss, can you imagine the boost to the team knowing they have Johnson to come back in for their next assignment.
Finding other silver linings, it is a good thing that this game is not being played at Mt Smart, at least our home fans won't have that robbed feeling having invested in a big day out to be deflated by this, and if we are gonna get a bit of a going over, better that it is on the road and not in our house.
I feel for TMM, he has not had that chance to get a game to work out the kinks with SJ.
In the eighties, if this had of happened, it would not be uncommon for a side in our shoes to go out there and try to break legs and wreck the biggest threat in the comp in case we play them again.
I better finish on a silver lining thought here....uhmm the Panthers get a poor workout vs the Warriors which sees them less than sharpened and over confident in the Semis and as a result they get knocked out of the comp.
Eden park might be a bit harder to fill mate, especially if we get pumped by fifty.
But I dont care personally to be honest, I was just making the point that the club are making promises that they cannot predict unless Cam George has a red phone to God and the almighty says yes I will heal his leg in time to suit your fixtures amen.
