Pick Your Team Warriors v Cowboys - [Round 9, 2025]

[BangBro's (still banging)]

Egan has been killing it in the grade above though. Wonder if it's partially cause Healey is putting a bit of pressure on to play well though Egan has been going pretty well until that elbow injury last year.

I suspect Healey will be more explosive out of DH than Egan, could blow games right open!

I wonder how you could play both at the same time?

Egan to play the ball to Healey who goes for a monster run, plays the ball to Egan who no look passes to Healey for another monster run, rinse and repeat

Says DWZ and RTS back in the next couple of weeks

 

[Lance155]

Is there actually any mail on a early return for either winger? Would love for at least 1 to be back this week to get Pompey out of wing.

Add another hooker on the bench and rename the team the the NZ Brothel.

No early mail. Id say none feature this week. but then next week one or two should be back.

By Dolphins all 3 should be ready. Rog does look close to return but id probably wait until he fully 100% with last years injuries.

Nice.

And if we get invited back to Vegas, the New Zealand Hoors (pronounced "Hoo-ers", tap into the Sopranos Fans & Rugby League Fans Venn Diagram spot)

Same team as Friday's. I see no need to rush anybody back. CHT or TT doing the kicking. I know 4/4 isn't a huge sample size, but something's got to change there.

 

[Tookey 2.0]

Question: If Egan makes Origin this year, is it a straight swap for Healey who sounds like he's going pretty good in Cup? Do we select him and play him for the full 80, or do we need to have someone like Lussick starting and playing big minutes?

Looks like Origin 1 is 3 NRL games away, so I wonder if we're maybe going to start looking at this from this week, as ideally if we are going to have him starting or playing big minutes without Wayde then he should be getting a few 20-30 minute games before that

Can't do that. The ref would be giving penalties all day for escorts and downtowns.

tupouniua showed using knee to give head is still legal on field

Don’t wanna get banned there but the recruitment thread is fast turning into an appreciation thread

1. CNK
2. DWZ/TT
3. Berry
4. Leiataua
5. DWZ/TT
6. Metcalf
7. Boyd
8. Niukore
9. Egan
10. Barnett
11. Halasima
12. Capewell
13. Clark
14. Healey
15. Vaimauga
16. Laban
17. Ford

For me I’d like to see Boyd come in and run the attack. CHT has done nothing wrong, I just feel he’d be the one to drop out. Metcalf can still do his thing and we’d have a goal kicker and game manager in Boyd.
Pompey doesn’t fit into a healthy team, it is what it is.

I think Healey can be used as both a backup to Wade and cover 6, 7, 13 at a pinch.
I’d start to decrease Niukores minutes and increase Laban and Vaimaugas.
Capewell is a weird one but he seems like he’s warmed into the season, still a bit to offer.

Once RTS and JFH are back I really like the look of the teams youth and veteran mix.

Boyd can come in but not at chanels expense, he doesn't deserve to be dropped after last week's performance.

Like a tag team of hookers, so to speak

Why would you play a prop at hooker?

Amen brother, or as we say in the BBAS, Abunt.

Matty Johns with Cronk and brings up Leka’s special ability to play the ball with opposite hand and foot, Cronk cracked up. Even showed a replay

People are starting to take notice now of how good he is

 

[sydneywarrior92]

opposition edge players are freaking out every time Leka is close to getting the ball. That CNK no try is a perfect illustration of how opposition players jamming in on leka is going to create space for us.

But Niukore can play the ball faster. (Jokes guys).
