I always hold my breath when i start to read the team list from fullback onwards.
First its the centre pairing
Then its who's playing halfback
Then to the lock position..
The good thing about the side is To'omaga is in!
Im also glad that Doorey is still in there.
To’omaga and Doorey are our future along with a few others.
Trent will put us back on the right path.

WOW.

This carnt has lost the plot.
What is wrong with this backline

1.Meaney
2. DWZ
3. Lafai
4. Hoppa (too slow and gets caught out of position in defence at the back)
5. Okunbur/Smith
6. Foran
7.Cogger

Honestly we weren't far off the right balance last week. We just needed to patch up the poor defense on the left edge.

DWZ in for left centre and possibly Lewis souly for his defense is all that was needed.

This side against the Raiders is a desperate mess.

@Haddaway I posted this after the game on Sunday, still don't believe me when I say Thompson in earning 900k+$1?!! :tearsofjoy:
You have no clue what the actual figures are. If Bateman was chasing 750k for his next contract good pommy forwards only cost around 550k give or take.

I would of rested Foran before Cogger, at least Cogger tried...and can physically move in all directions
Floporan and Lewis are the untouchables

Is is a bloody fantastic effort to be fair with this team selection.

It’s not easy to get a guaranteed SPOON in a year where Broncos have stolen the news for having their worst year ever with coaches being punted and injuries galore PLUS Warriors having their 2 dynamic wingers leaving for home in a year where they have had to leave their families behind in NZ for the whole season.

This is a phenomenal effort by the Dogs
