Team List Warriors v Cowboys - [Round 9, 2025]

[Warriorsfan92]

This is a speculative comment and is predicated on the idea that Healey plays,, which may or may not happen.

If he does play then it is noteworthy he is debuting in round 9.
Perhaps the Warriors, if he does play, planned this all along, Start Healey in 💙 Mighty NSW cup for two months to give him a sense of our systems before introducing him to first grade. If this turns out to be part of a master plan, ie delaying his introduction for two months, then I am highly impressed with the coaching staff.
Off course there are other possibilities like they wanted to take a look at him first and that the earned his way up; But I like the concept this may have been pencilled in before the season started and if that was the case then Kudos to Webster.

There’s also a real possibility that we’re without Egan during the origin period, so perhaps it’s future proofing in the case he makes his origin debut.

New coach, new philosophies. A 1,2 punch of api, Egan would be deadly for 💙 Mighty NSW. Robson playing his way into form & is the incumbent but Egan is the form hooker in the NRL & there was whispers of a debut in 2023/24 prior to his head knocks.

You wish you still had a head of hair like Leka, what a canvas to work with

Think he looks good to go

If a half gets injured, the least disruption is Egan to the halves and Healey to 9.

nup, seen it in football, league and union over many years: bleach blonde = twat move = self consciousness = peroxide performance anxiety

I recall Joey Johns doing it back in the day, dyed red, and then the ny-nites got thumped. He said "I'll Never do that Ever again!" (with a smile.)

I can't see the analogy - is he supposed to rip them apart

My wife surprised me & purchased tix to the games(Whole weekend) flights(Perth to Brissy) for magic round. Her folks live 15 mins from Suncorp. So our accom is sorted. I've never been to suncorp. And its been a dream of mine to watch a game there. Bit of bucket list trip for me. Feel like a kid again , Excited! Lol. Hope the boys get the W! I'll be smiling for the rest of the year.

Very exciting for you but you say tix (Perth to Brisbane).
Check to make sure she isn't leaving you in Brisbane. Lol

That would be very panthers like. I'm pretty sure they wanted to do that with blaze at 6 execpt with jack cole being injuried they had move him up early.

Enjoy bro.

Better start saving for her turn.

Not sure I’ve ever read a positive post from you, just saying.

Go on surprise me.

I have.

It was a Wednesday.

Can't recall the message.

It does exist.

People are riding your theory a bit but there is actually science behind what you are saying.

Drawing attention to yourself in sport is a nuanced, like anything.

Gonna be interesting seeing if this fullah gets Hurrell syndrome or not (the kicker will be how he handles being told to do things he does not agree with by a coach).

With the way everyone is talking about a player's hair, it feels like im in a retirement home. Next ya'll will get into them for wearing baggy pants or singing the chant to loud.

Yeah check it wasn’t a one way tix… have fun !

 

[KO WAI RA]

Towards the end of last week’s game,it kinda looked like a defender grabbed a handful of Leka’s bak fro & sent his head skywards….
Just the visuals of it anyway!!!!!
Definitely good reason to change up his cutz…..
Now …..if he reaches Kikau level of dominance,then colour becomes irrelevant…..

Let the young bull eat……
GONE LETS MAGIC NOW…..!!!!!!

 

[sydneywarrior92]

If Leka keeps playing the way he does, who gives a flying f*** what his fashion preferences are. He can shave his head off for all I care.

 

[CWC]

Lekau

We haven't been on a holiday in 5 years bro. Well deserved for both of us. She's a wahs fan too. Wears the jerseys i get her, Watches the games with me. And doesn't know one players name

 

[Wrighty]

Put me down in the camp of being against his hair style
Kikau bleached his hair and was immediately less effective

Take into account I am 52 when evaluating my vote

He was sporting that hairstyle in sg ball a couple of years ago. That’s when I really noticed him. TSS used to wear the red headgear that people thought he was trying to draw attention, probably more likely he was repping Canterbury colours

He hasn't even done his yardy. Still a teenager. Doing amazing things.

Though his try celebrations and hair colour choices may be flawed, I back him to have another impact on this round. He's big time I reckon.

Bring on Leka time
