Nanai Replaces Utai

[d_eye]

I still dont understand why folkes doesnt give brent crisp a crack.
He's ausome, strong, passionate, very good under the high ball.

If the guy's knee is gonna flare up every week, either release him, or stop him from training ala Terry Lamb.

For 450k/yr, this guy is ****ing ridiculous.

give him another week off..i'd rather give up 2 points then lose SBW for the season. Bring up another youngster just 2 piss maitua off

Give me a ring in round 26 when we miss the 8 because of 2 points.

The *****'s knee is just gonna flare up again next week anyway

We gave the Tigers the 2 points last season as well, hopefully this time its different though. I wouldn't rest him and then just throw him in against the roosters and expect him to play a great game. I would have him play off the bench this week but thats only if he is 100% fit.

I hate going through this feeling of not knowing if one of your best players will end up playing, same thing happened last week, except this time we need to wait 2 days extra.:nervous:

But hopefully Weidler is wrong and he does end up playing, Weidler said he was training with the team today which is a positive i suppose.

:roflol: yeah ok nwz

 

[Sandra's Bollocks]

I wouldnt read too much into what Weidler says. Not looking "convincing" doesnt mean he wont play. He's yet to complete a full days training.

 

[big joe]

at least nanai is a bit taller

 

[D0ggyStylz]

lol @ off the bench

if sonny aint fit enough to start then he aint fit enough to play off the bench

 

[.PARANoIR.]

I'm happy enough for Nanai to come in. He needs to line up against Tagive, he can jump.

 

[Dognacious]

NO one gives Holdsworth the respect he deserves........

Folkes does.....and thats more important.

 

[BulldogStar]

interesting. hopefully heka steps up! i was just saying last week id like to see them give him a go

 

[Sull]

Hopefully Heka goes well, in the under 20's last week his relieving dummy half runs were huge. But he isn't a centre, wing is more appropriate for him. Goodluck to him marking Tuiaki.

I wouldn't be surprised if Folkes makes a last minute change and swaps Millard and Heka around.

dont think that will happen..

 

[Dogzkill4eva]

is it better to position haka where he is now or on the other side?

 

[magdog]

Looks like Folkes wants to see what his 2 "gun" backs from lower grades bring to the table.
Unless they both play out of their skin, can't see Folkes persist with both Tim & Heka when Millard is match fit.
Expect one of these 2 player to become a permanent member of our backline.

Is it just me or does Winitana have a smaller version of the Hickey gut?

 

[..shurrup..]

lets hope the team plays well

 

[Hodgo007]

dont think that will happen..

And why not ?

Folkes isn't that style of coach. He wouldn't name Heka and than drop him like that. Folkes is no Brian Smith or Phil Gould in that regard.
