Pretty much my team as well. My only changes are Bunty in for Ale. Buntys D is right up there and they’re like for like in the go forward. And Bunty starts with Barnett off the bench. Then 20mins in Barnett comes on and Bunty probably not seen for rest of game. When we were at our best mid season, this rotation worked best. Then for that back end of 1st half we have AFB, Barnett, Niukore/Walker providing that punch. Lussicks gone well last few weeks, so jumps Siro as that dummy half cover and D up the middle.
Pennys have a hard working and relentless pack. Need to fight fire with fire with our bigger boys dominating. And we need to stop that grubby pick Liam Martin as well.

Pretty much what everyone else's picked so far... however that left edge defence worrys me it's been pretty ordinary lately...
Whatever team is picked intensity, low errors and high completions really matter now.. and I believe the teams nowhere near ready.. Webby and the boys have a lot of work to do this week..

I miss doing this tradition! Brilliantly executed!
Only questions I think there really are regarding team naming is who starts out of Barnett and Afoa, and who starts out of Curran and Ford.
I think Curran has shown the past two weeks he can be out there for 80, he can defend on par with Ford, and still be better on the offensive side of the ball.
He won’t give up those dumb ruck infringements (at least not nearly as much imo) and frankly, dudes got that dawg in him lol. I can see him getting under some guys skins, maybe drawing a penalty or two from someone like Leniu.
I don’t think he will start, but that is what I’d want. I hope Webby gets him into the game early/for longer minutes if he is on the bench.

Id rather Curran come off the bench at hit with that intensity that he does. Him and Barnett coming off the bench maybe the turning factor.

Put our top team out there or send yesterday's team if you must.
Keys for this week. We want to win every game so top team and get the bench right. Four forwards and Tuaupiki, Volkman or Kosi at 18th.
Maybe
14. Walker
15. Barnett
16. Curran
17. Sironen
Nervous energy because let's not kid ourselves that Penrith while beatable are a very drilled and tuned organisation. They are everything we know they are.
But!!!!!!
Stuff that. Get out there and be the best in every run, every pass, every tackle, every word, every moment. Execute and win!!!
All the way Warriors!!!!!!!!

Siro has to be relegated to reserves after that defensive effort yesterday.

Wonder if Penalty magnet Cord (sorry for the sarcastic remark) will start next week. I like him. He's got a bit of feral in him and when he and Barnett jam up on one side it's a good mix vs Penrith's strong side
Surprised at the overwhelming support for TMM to start. He was rusty in so many parts of his game and next week is a huge step up from Redcliffe. We are 3-3 with him in the team this season. I would start Dylan Walker at 6 and have TMM on the bench.
I agree! He's been playing every week! He's always good for missed tackles, but also he was not pushing lone speed either! All of them weren't, I get it, but Ale will make tackles.
At last we are here.
Congratulations Warriors, you earned it.
Leeeeeeeettttts GET READY RUMBLE!
The biggest game of the season, been saying that a lot this year, but no one can dispute it against the defending Premiers.
Can we win?
Yeah we can win with our shut out defence., it is pretty obvious that this is the key in this game. Our try line defence and Kick chase are our best assets. Get those two things in order and deliver for a whole game and we will win. A few ifs buts and maybe's sure, but it is fifnals time and it is time to press GO.
I wanted Penrith. Go after the bullies and show them you have bad intentions.
There is no better way to start a finals campaign than to go Buster Douglas on the Panthers.
