Mitch Barnett for me. Thought Hynes try celebration was peculiar that was a no try. Like he did AFB’s try celebration followed by a fuck you to the crowd?

Hynes himself doesn’t know what he’s doing But yeah so satisfying to watch it go up stairs for a NO try

Hazelton did it as well. Were they trying to win AFB up?

AFB has set a platform every week that other clubs would dream of.
IMO he is in the conversation of “the best props that have ever played the game”.

He'll probably get it but AFB has been superior iMO by a significant margin

 

[Ref]

AFB was massive last night as usual.

 

[El Chuckie]

Absolutely. We need his go forward and the way he carries defenders. Did you see him send McInnes tumbling early in one of his carries last night. Bye big fulla

McInnes hit the ground three times on contact with AFB. I think he lost another four teeth.

Mcinnes had 4 teeth?
That bloke could eat a watermelon through a Pickett fence.

Yes AFB our player of the year
Consistency consistency
Effort and more effort
A big big loss

Massive loss but it may also force a rethink of our team and bench rotation. Need to cover his minutes and output somehow. That may mean more impactful minutes from some of our bench players. Maybe?

He only had three to start the game

Yes that's about all we can do. With Fish arriving and young blokes developing I see no reason to panic and every reason to plant our feet and get ready for another shot next year.

Price or AFB as the best prop to ever play for the Warriors?

I personally pick Addin for his on feild performances. Pricey was the man too. Even better off it. But addin was a absolute monster for us. Will miss the big doko!

So hard to separate

Price was a leader, made HUGE metres at a time that you had to create the roll on (it seems a lot easier these days with the speed of the game), surprisingly quick on his feet, and his pressure on the kickers was awesome.

AFB very dynamic footwork, strong, durable, huge motor, great defence, ultra-consistent, best prop in the modern game.

Price by a whisker for me due to the tougher environment (he played in cauldrons that don't exist anymore) and leadership, though I could easily be convinced to flip due to AFB's motor and fitness.

Both the starting props in the All time XIII though.

that Sharks pack is going to be scary... god, he was good this year

Its a good thing because it will provide the reference for how high our defence has to lift

Good thing we need two props for the all time Warriors team.
