In what is terrible news for the Fus, his hamstring now classed as 6 weeks worthy, which ironically is probably good news for the warriors as his form/work rate among others has been diabolical this year. He wont be named today. Assuming Montoya passes HIA, Hayze Perham, Paul Turner and Rocco Berry are likely contenders from the squad for the other spot.

How do you know then?
rugby league leaks team info everywhere, not hard to find.
Warriors: Peta Hiku (knee) earns a recall and takes the place of winger David Fusitu'a, who suffered a hamstring injury in the narrow loss to Manly, while Marcelo Montoya has been named after copping a head knock at Central Coast Stadium.
Josh Curran gets a start in the second row with Eliesa Kotoa dropping out of the squad.
Bunty Afoa and Jamayne Taunua-Brown are available after serving suspensions with Afoa scoring a spot on the interchange, replacing Tom Ale, and Taunua-Brown being named in the reserves.

Probably a slow news day and not much to it, but I see TJ Perenara is linked with the Roosters given their injury crisis

It'll be next year, he's signed with NZR until then. And it's just typical rubbish - oh what a surprise pro rugby player's agent offering him around when there are questions about his value

God I don't like this Penrith side. Generally you have to actually win something before you start to carry on like fuckheads

@mariner4life Led by Jahrome Luai. Don't think they will, but I'd love for Brisbane to get up here.

Jesus when Pangai Jnr plays like this you can understand the contract. He and Hass are bullying the Panthers

i would hate to be a coach, that guy has so much potential.. imagine if he played like that every week

Poor old Brisbane. They dominated the majority of this game until Cleary nailed that long range field goal. Having said that, they exposed Penrith in a lot of areas tonight.

Brisbanes best game for about a year, they won't be happy to lose but some real effort there. Penrith barely got up the other end in the second half, but Nathan Clearly was class, either came up with 40/20, 40m field goals or a try

He was actually really poor up until that 40:20. Threw some shocking passes and pit in some ordinary kicks.
Then 3 moments and Penrith win.
Brisbane a huge effort they just lack the skill in the spine to win a game like that. Forwards were really good.

yep agree and that is what good players can do, help you still win ugly.
I would rather have played Brisbane in the last few rounds than in the next few, not many teams will stop them "if" they can repeat that

@bayimports as a tactician type coach Fitzgibbon is very highly rated. But I’m glad that we didn’t get him as I don’t think it would’ve been the best scenario for either party. Rookie senior coach with our current mob, not great!
-
Storm v Roosters tonight should be fun. Don't think i have ever seen the Roosters paying $3.25 to win against anybody! Not sure the Storm are that good. Just more the weight of the Roosters' injury toll

I think you are right, you need the right coach for a certain group of players and wish we were able to keep Payten, the team certainly bought into his approach, and the defense improved incredibly, the players actually started to work for each other. Seems to have gone missing a bit this year already. I think this will happen for the cows , just will take a bit of time.
Also think Griffen could have gone ok at the warriors too. He would have ridden them hard, but I think thats whats needed with them. Once they get to the next level, then you can focus more on tactics..

oh and we sort of glossed over the Karmichael Hunt to the Broncos story.
Crazy journey for that boy. Coles brand Sonny Bill
