All of them + all stars.

 

[El Chuckie]

I notice that the TAB have the Tigers as favourites

I'm whispering this, but I'd agree, by a shade, given they're putting out something closer to full strength while ours is more experimental.

These trial results mean absolutely nothing, can't wait to see the next gen players in Webby's systems

They are not too concerned.
The pool will be very small

Mate we are one of the player sponsors and were at training on Monday. I won't elaborate but in my opinion if team named for round 1-3 shortly barring injury RTS be on wing with plan to move him in later once up to speed. Nothings 100% but it would be likely.

Sorry, wasn't trying to throw any shade on your oil - I was genuinely curious. Awesome that you are a player sponsor - well done!
Interesting update, and thanks for sharing. In Webby we trust!

So they should be, they're playing a lot of regular first graders.

I won't be surprised if we lose.

Would be demoralising if tigers lost and could be dire to their season if their close to top team was rolled by a close to second string Warriors team.

We have been there eh, losing in preseason to Melbourne B side with our strong line ups.

I like the Tigers now that they are complete shit.

Looking forward to seeing whether Papalii shows up fit like his Eels gig, or we see the same podgey work avoiding freeloader the Tigers fans have come to loath, the same puffy boy who left here...that some want back.

He’s saying all the right things, we’ll see. Tigers are going to be a good team at some point soon whether it be this season or next I reckon, great forward pack and adding the necessary parts.

Which I'd do, given firstly it's Benji's bow as NRL Coach and secondly the Tigers have the small matter of wanting to avoid a third straight wooden spoon so need to get their act together pronto. The unpleasant vibes around Nofoaluma won't have helped matters much, either.

But I'm still backing our as you say more experimental team to get the job done.

Christchurch, there's your challange! Make a bigger deal with Auckland over No Princess than China has with Argentina over No Messi!

At least the Warriors have done the sensible thing of not even naming Shaun on the extra-extended bench. Pretty stupid of Miami to name Messi when it was pretty evident the smart move was to not play him....

Last chance to cheer on the Tigers revival before number douchebag Luai joins them

Lionel Messi's team played a friendly in China, but he stayed on the bench which infuriated all the Chinese punters who mainly went to see him.
It has escalated to the point where "No Messi" has caused diplomatic tensions between China and Argentina.

Mr Blonde was saying Christchurch should kick up a bigger stink about "No Princess" (SJ not playing this weekends trial) with Auckland than the Chinese did with Argentina over "No Messi"

I almost thought WarriotBot was answering this, if not for the outdated history it has to draw from.

To be fair, I'd be pretty fucked off if I paid to see Messi and it obviously turned out to be a gimmick/load of shit.

I would be pissed off if I paid to see any soccer player and I would stop going on ticketek when I was drunk.

We went to a clippers game in LA last year.
I had my pg13 shirt on and my boy had his kawhai one. In the taxi on the way to the game we heard on the radio they had both pulled out- I’m still gutted about that.

 

[CWC]

To be fair Messi was held at the Chinese airport for 6 hours last time, the way he attacked the Dutch at the world cup even after they won, he might be the type of person who chose to nurse his minor ankle niggle than giving what Chinese organizers want lol

Not sure what the diplomatic situation is but the newly elected Argentine president is totally an eccentric character who despises socialists lol, popcorn time

For people who missed it the tension exploded when Messi came off the bench in Japan a few days after the China visit, that’s what offended the socialist propagandists, Taiwan and Japan are the 2 places you don’t give better services than CCP in their minds

People have brought up Chinese media reports from last year where they clearly stated Messi and others were injured so might not make it to the pitch, and now the contract was shown that he had the rights to not play. So it’s all a propaganda now because Messi played in Japan, nothing would have happen if he plays in Russia or North Korea, bet your house on it. Real life education in case we get owned by China one day and you guys know how they think lol

PS I am from that region so I’m not surprised, but pity those on tiktok who rip up counterfeit Messi jerseys they bought from Taobao (and kept signed ones lol)
