Team List Warriors vs Raiders - [Round 12, 2025]

[Worried2Death]

Might have Pompey on the right in case DWZ listens to too much Bob Marley and starts jammin too much

I was going to do a Gerry Brownlee joke about Pomps, but he's too good for that now, he's made me eat my words as fast as Gerry Brownlee at the opening of a humble pie factory.

Let’s eat

 

[Wrighty]

Real excited about the game tomorrow. I don't think we stood a chance before today's change. That makes a big difference to our pack. Ford is not up for starting but is turning into a quality option off the bench.

 

[The Undertaker]

I’d say TSS comes in for TMM given Capewell offers backs cover.

We need to win the forwards battle and having another 25 min forward available is better than a 7 minute hooker/halves cover player.

Gives us better rotation and hopefully we can play at a higher cadence.

Why is Boyd still in the 19?

doesn't mean anything necessary. have to have 2 leftovers.

We all know that.
Buy there is always a reason who it is.
Is there maybe a niggle to a half or Egan or even CNK?

You reckon if TMM stays on the bench, that they’re trying him out for a 14 role?

 

[CWC]

Thought Pompey would have gone back to his preferred left and Leiataua on his better attacking right. Wonder if it’s because of the matchups against opposing centres that sees them where they are?

IDK Pompey is always named as 3

IMO he’s now the incumbent centre at left and Ali and Berry battle it out for right centre depending on who can get on the field and form

Though our right edge defense is Ali/Leka/DWZ

 

[CWC]

Quite excited for the game now actually

No.1 backline and we have experienced big props coupled with Clark and Cape, and Leka’s the other, and off bench Laban is a big enthusiastic body I think will be a tackle machine in the middle, plus energizers Ford and Demi

 

[Leighton Rhino]

Did I imagine it or did RTS drop a few Hugh ones last week?

Both wingers can have bad days sometimes with high kicks. We got really lucky with one last week

 

[CWC]

You imagined it

 

[Leighton Rhino]

You imagined it

OK he didn't drop Hugh but did he drop high ones?

 

[CWC]

OK he didn't drop Hugh but did he drop high ones?

He totally didn’t drop bombs forward by a meter, missed by all the refs, and Metcalf ended up chip and regather, and set up Capewell at center to score, are you dreaming?

And both have spent time at fullback so should be safe under the hugh and high balls
