[WarriorsForever]

Game day

 

[wizard of Tauranga]

3.30 kick off…

Right when I’m at work! Needed an evening game

 

[BangBro's (still banging)]

Huge watch for me..........

Sio Kali
Eddie Ieremia-Toeava
Moala Graham Taufa
T Ale

 

[BangBro's (still banging)]

So far you can't deny that

Walker
Afoa
Vaimauga
Healey

Are the bench so far, Ale and Ford need to force his way in today, same with CHT and Martin although I suspect webby has Metcalf and Martin penciled in and will be given a bit of rope.

Thankfully this kick off time is 7.30pm in the states for us. Had a very dicey driving day in our RV in high winds and snow. Ready for a beer!

TMM to have a stint at fullback today …

It left Vegas yesterday but will be back for sure!

weird, why? Who's in at 6 when that's happening?

Chanel.....maybe with DWZ out they don't want Roger covering there in short term?

So much tampering with the positions is fine to a point. But why put TMM at fullback other than to get reps. Why not pull him off and let the juniors get reps.

So much more complex in the coaching group's minds than that of the observational fan.

Could also be a master stroke (pull him off pun) he was superb there for the broncos but where does that leave Tuapiki and CNK? With our outside back shortage the coaches may be scrambling and have them at wing and centre....

Is that a guess or have you heard that?

Also damn it should be a good game today. Stadium looks like it's sold pretty damn well. Let's make sure the boys feel the love before they head off for vegas

I get that. More room for him to move and run but yeah ok I gotcha

I mean i wouldn't mind that, just shows how fragile our squad balance is in some places though :

tmm
rts
ali
cnk
tt
cht
lm

Heard from an inside source. The same source that told me that LM/CHT were going to be the halves pairing to kick the season off - still TBC.. Also gave me info about TMM’s late season neck injury last year.
Does the move to fullback then give TT time on the wing and CHT at 6 …. Perhaps????

Where does CNK fit in that scenario though?

Just about that whole backline has played at fullback at one time or another. Only exception perhaps Leiataua?

He is locked in at 1
