General Warriors Preseason 2026

I said it last year and got vociferous objections and will say it again - we are short on depth at lock.
If Erin Clark gets injured it will cause one of our props to go to lock such as Barnett.
Demetric would be able to fill in.

Leka could get chucked in the middle as a desperation lock and would likely go somewhere between half decent and game breaking.

Super desperate. Te Maire Martin and or Samuel Healey or if we seriously hate Chanel at 6 we could get him to eat taro and corned beef and KFC to beef up and he would go well.

Thats all I can think of at present.

Sorry just read everybody else's better lists.
 
I see Laban turning into an elite front rower in 2026.
Mobile enough to play on the edge.
I don’t see any difference between him and Xavier Williston.
Surely he is in Webby’s best 17 for round one.
I actually thought he looked a bit uncomfortable in the middle. Very good defensively but would run a bit upright and get driven back. When he was on an edge he looked much more comfortable dropping under or attacking an outside shoulder
