If TT is in the team , we have a goal kicker plus someone who can move up in the line on the last tackle and kick , whilst TMM drops back to FB.
No need to include Pompey or Boyd for their kicking games.

I need to track that fella down. I have every Warriors player's trading card from inception to now autographed except for Royal. Any contacts would be appreciated.
The Herald understands Metcalf could miss the first quarter of next season, with his return tentatively earmarked for round seven against Gold Coast Titans in Auckland. There are a lot of variables around that date as recoveries from ACL injuries are different depending on the individual, but that is what the club are planning for at this stage. It could happen earlier for Metcalf but it also might be later, towards round eight or nine.
Barnett, whose injury occurred in the round 13 game against the Rabbitohs on June 1, a few days after he had starred for New South Wales in their opening State of Origin victory in Brisbane, will be back sooner. The club are currently planning for his return in the first fortnight of the season, against either the Roosters in round one or the Raiders in round two. That is the most likely scenario but the Herald has also been told that date could move to the third or fourth week of the season.
Would be great if Barney was ready for round one.
Good news on Metcalf- I’d heard round 10 but that was a while ago- must be progressing well.
I wonder what might’ve been if they had stayed fit last year. I’m confident to say we would’ve finished top 4 which would’ve pushed Brisbane out of the 4 and u have a completely different finals series.
So this year we struggled as no BARNETT or Metcalf ... we wont see them until Round 7 , so does that mean that 2026 will not be our year ig 30% of the games will not feture thee two together?

It depends. I know nobody really knows until the year starts but we've been billed with the easiest draw. If that does turn out to be the case we could easily still make the top 4 despite having a poor start to the season without Metcalf and Barney.
