Oh the anticipation of an unchanged team.

Expecting same team, but Rocco berry on the extended for EIT. Hoping Rocco gets added for Pompey, he looked outstanding in cup & deserves his spot. Loyalty is one thing, but injury shouldn’t prevent someone from regaining their position when fully fit (unless that individual made a statement in their absence, which Pompey hasn’t).

Pompey has made the statement of durability and availability. No complaints when dropped (I think) and I seem to be a fan boy of his lately even though he is probably the same speed as Kosi.

I like it how he lies in the tackle and looks back at the team for an acknowledgment that the defensive line is set. Think between himself and CHT, they’ll lay on plenty of tries for RTS this season

Not to say Rocco is not a better 18th man. I just would rather see him get reps in NSW cup over warming up the bench just in case.

An unchanged 17 has been named for the third straight week for the One New Zealand Warriors’ round three NRL clash against the Sydney Roosters at Go Media Stadium on Friday night (8.00pm kick-off).

Does anyone know whats up with Sam Healey?

I wonder how Capewell pulled up after the game? Laban is close!

Saw this for round 2. This makes a change to last year - so far anyway. I think last season we had the worst, or close to it, injury toll

Can't pick him over Egan just because. Time is on his side. Not Egan's

 

[Tookey 2.0]

I'm happy with another week for this team. I'm willing to bet we didn't field the same team 3 weeks in a row at any point last year so getting those reps in will be great.

If we lose, or shit the bed in certain areas I think change could be on the cards for the Tigers game. Laban, Berry, maybe Ale and Healy all getting close.

No idea what Lussick is on the 1st grade bench for ???

 

[snake77]

It is good to have stability. Especially after the last few years where we'd pick up an injury or suspension most games. Or when someone would finally come back from injury the debate with their replacement didn't matter as they'd get injured.

Good to see the reserves listed. Have some pressure coming from outside the 17.

Healys got a shoulder injury

Pretty sure Pompey is the incumbent via seniority and games played.
