No, playing in Nth Queensland now. He could have been playing first grade this weekendfor the Warriors.Is Sam Cooke still with the Warriors?
Why? The plan could be that CHT plays 50/60 in the halves then moves to hooker to spell Luke and AK subs on for him. Would make sense.I wish Kearney would evolve and adapt to team lineups based on ins/outs/what the team requires. Agree that he has to keep CHT on the bench and promote AK. Its pointless to have AK on the bench otherwise.
Pretty sure the club hasn't said anything because of the sensitive nature of his court case. Club won't want to distract the team or be seen to be supporting a violent offender. So best to keep quiet.He's been named in the reserves after 3 weeks out so sounds injury related to me.
Otherwise he would have been dropped to the reserves 3 weeks ago
Kearney probably feels team has gone ok over the last 2 games he's put Herbert in reserves for some match time.
Also lets Herbert know that missed tackle was not ok and your not a fixed item in first grade yet.
Brings him back down to earth and rids any thoughts of complacency that may have been setting in.
Good example of player developement / management. There's a few in the team thats been through the process, Maumalo being a good example.
My 2 cents worth anyway...
I think we have better go forward in our forward pack then the eels. Shaun Lane will be a big loss for them
Waqa Blake coming in gives them a better balanced back line but they are missing Ferguson
The Eels are a bit like the Warriors in some ways in that when they are bad they are bad
If we can dominate the middle we will win this game.
Probably because he's an actual NRL coach, rather than an arm chair critic, with what appears to a loose grip on the reality of our playing stocksWhy has retard named Adam K on the bench ? Fucking moron. We must be the only team that loves to carry rookie halfbacks on the bench. What’s adam gonna do ? Play hooker now ? Or just in case CHT gets injured so let’s waste a bench spot.
Was it pointless having CHT on the bench a few weeks ago when he had previously never played hooker? What makes CHT a better bench Hooker? AK is a stronger ball runner, who could cause trouble out of dummy half. I’m excited to see how he goesI wish Kearney would evolve and adapt to team lineups based on ins/outs/what the team requires.

Don't think they see either of them as a genuine dummy half so they went with CHT who has probably defended slightly better in first grade and is more versatileWas it pointless having CHT on the bench a few weeks ago when he had previously never played hooker?
