TeamList Team List Tuesday (2023 Finals Week 2) - Warriors vs Knights

[Aman 2.0]

Curran has come on and score a number of times.

I guess that is why they strike with him off the bench at precisely the time that they do?

Also for those wanting Curran to start, yeah I like it, but Ford is a pretty non impact bench forward.

Curran is so much more versatile. He runs harder and breaks the line better than ford, his defence is better, he can pass left and right and also has a lovely little offload close to the line in him.

Ford is sooo fucking one dimensional.

 

[Aman 2.0]

Australia is one of the most racist countries in the world. Refs are human beings raised in their culture, it is possible even probable that some will be closet racists, especially towards their indigenous people.
The Warriors have kind of been the pioneers of a culturally diverse side, thus the borderline dodgey comments about having hands like a Gorilla and Jungle ball....

You said it not me

True. I get blown away sometimes how racist people here in Aus are.
I had never thought about a racist connotation with jungle ball though - see it now you have explained it

Hard for refs to be racist though isn’t it? Two thirds or 60 per cent of players are Polynesian
Heck some teams are fifty per cent kiwi s- Dolphins for instance.

It has evolved a lot. Always a good thing.

I think the Warriors still have a prejudice issue which is not the same as racism, as a group of outsiders, a non Australian organization.

Yes don’t know how you overcome thst
But in the circle of Aussies I know the Warriors are accepted and respected for what they did through covid

 

[kos]

How do you find attitudes towards the Warriors Defence?

 

[Beastmode]

Hey guys,the weather looks like it's going to be brilliant on Saturday
For those coming from out of town,just remember it can get bloody cold at MtSmart when the sun goes down

Concur

Bring a warm woollen blanket . Raincoat. And umbrella…. Freezed my nut’s off last time.. the wind was a B

 

[Makasene]

Rubbish, Volkman was not cracking Panthers defence, big difference between looking good in NSW cop vs. playing the Panthers in a final.

Seeing our wingers run sideways into touch on multiple occasions I beg to differ.

We went went into the game without a halfback.

Squeaky wheel.

We saw how a tweet from someone significant and out of reach of the NRL changed our treatment by the Reffing allocations and general attitude.

The Cowboys showed the way, they were robbed in the finals more than once, but they kept coming and in the end there was so much noise around their claims of bias that eventually they won one.

We have to get screwed over in a few finals and make a lot of fuss to probably get a fair go. We have to be very very good to even get up there consistently.

 

[Defence]

How do you find attitudes towards the Warriors Defence?

Yeah I think the vast majority of them appreciate what they done during Covid and are happy for them.
Definitely everyone’s second team at the moment.
As far as racism goes I’d have to say I’ve seen a big change since I first went to Australia 20 years ago- I was quite shocked back then but find it’s changed for the better.
It’s funny because 50% of Australians have a parent who was born outside of Australia so it’s very multicultural now.

Yeah I agree - the bad racism i have encountered is in the over 70 age bracket blows me away

Certainly back in the 80 s kiwi s used to get picked on but I don’t see that now cause there’s so many different migrant races here although the Gc is a bit traditional less migrants here than Syd Melb sometimes you feel you are in Asia even Auck inner suburbs city now too

 

[Worried2Death]

When I say racist I mean only towards the warriors.

In your original comment he sounded so racist there'll only be Mitch Barnett and Lachie Miller left on the field by the time he's finished. My money's on Barney to get us home.

This, Curran has more impact than Ford off the bench, makes sense.

And I think Curran finally has understood this and taken the bull by the horns.

 

[tyrael]

Whoa. Is Barnett really that small? Reminds me of Lillyman.

you've just explained why one starts and one comes off the bench.....

 

[Warriorsfan92]

Can someone explain why team list Tuesday has been turned into why Australians are racist? Get this thread back on track. Ps I thought aman was banned?

Still the staunchest and they all know it.
I reckon we can get them through the middle- they had trouble containing a raiders pack without papalii and big red- afb for 200m

Yea he was but not aman 2.0

 

[Worried2Death]

You'll be NotAman2.0 when the mods get back in their private jets and see all this crap.

 

[The Warrior Waka]

Pompey, Montoya & Siro fill me with such joy & confidence! I love seeing them in the lineup.
