Pick Your Team Warriors v Broncos - [Round 7, 2025]

NZWarriors.com

I think there's zero chance we'll see Vaimauga in the Second Row this week or at any stage this year. Since recovering from his ACL last May he's only listed as starting one game in that position & on that day he only played 41 minutes, where as Eddie Ieremia-Toeava (who was listed at Prop) played 80, so I'm unsure if it was a genuine match in the position
 
I think the Warriors have to contest the Rocco ban. What is the leniency against players falling into a tackle causing a headshot?

Rocco has only just returned anyway so what is the harm in having him miss 2 weeks worst case?
It does my head in with the inconsistencies in these charges

What was the difference between Berry’s tackle and Kamikamica’s.

Even if Berry’s was considered worse how does it warrant a grade 2?

Also I recall Annesley in March last year when May had a head clash with Walsh saying players can be sanctioned for a head clash yet Kamikamica’s tackle which took CNK out didn’t even get us a penalty.
 
1. Tuaupiki
2. Kosi
3. Ali
4. EIT
5. Pompey
6. CHT
7. Metcalf
8. Bunty
9. Egan
10. Barnett
11. Niukore
12. Capewell
13 Clark

14. Healey
15. Ford
16. Vaimauga
17. Halasima

Eddie and Healey to debut, give Wade 50 this week. They'll need to manage his minutes a bit if he's gonna last the season.
Actually like that centre pairing ! Would prefer Laban ahead of Nuikore even if he is too hot & cold. I get a tad excited seeing more young guns join Leka & Demetric in first grade.
 
I'd rather the greenies to Harper. We have nothing to lose(Well, Except the game) with the suspensions and injuries we have. Other clubs embrace youth. We're to conservative.
It's not like we have much experience in the centres anyway. But I'd still prefer someone who's at least had some first grade than EIT who I think only has a handful of cup games under his belt. If not Harper, MTG would not be a bad choice here. Good solid build too.
 
Sounds like you need a cuddle

Nah,
Haters that think Websters positive nurturing of his players that came up with the name cuddles need one.

Put me down as another that hates that nic.

I would rather see him called c*** if I am honest, the passive agro of cuddles stinks.

Oh to the topic at hand, prolly gonna get a hiding vs Brisdumb.

Might as well go for it boys, throw everything you got at em.

Its a fine line on bringing these young guys thru to NRL standard & differs from one to the other.
What works for one may be completely wrong for the next guy.
 
If Berry isn't playing (and there's nothing to suggest by previous judiciary trials that the NRL will admit they got it wrong and let Berry off), then I think I'd like Ali to face up to Staggs.

The other Broncos centre is Shibby-Saki, and while he's been playing well this year he's a pretty standard centre, not overwhelmingly fast or strong etc so I think if we were going to take a punt on a rookie like EIT, now would be a great time to attempt that.

Maybe pick someone who is more solid, if not spectacular there. I would probably rule MGT out as he's got a few poor errors in his game. I know we've all had a laugh but how bad is Harper really? Can we rely on him having one game there and not give up a bunch of missed tackles or dropped balls? I guess I'd even rate Pompey to contain Shinny too, so there's a few options there
