<p>James Spader's spidey sense is tingling </p> -
<p>Some big changes for the game against the Doggies in Wellington. Lolohea moves to stand off, Fusitua moves onto the wing, Thompson returns from injury and Ligi Sao is the 18th man although expect him to be on the bench come kick-off.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Team to face Bulldogs at the Caketin on Saturday night:</p>

<p>Bodene back is a positive to add a bit of variation to Hoffman and Mannering. I do like Lolohea as a playmaker that takes on the line. I'm quite optimistic, which usually results in the opposition winning by 10-15....</p>

<p>It's the Warriors, the deck chairs are already floating in the icy seas of the Atlantic. </p> -

Hurrell needs to play to find form. Thompson has become the heart of the team with Vatuvei so hes a huge boost. Lolohea is an exciting guy and things happen when he is busy. He could spark Johnson.<br><br>
I think its really just a matter of igniting self belief and theyll be off. This could be it.<br><br>

<p>You've gone and done it now.... Doggies by at least 20 now for sure.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Besides the Worriers never win in Wellington anyway (or Auckland for that matter).</p> -
<p>Hurrell won't be playing tonight - he was in the NSW Cup side today. Sao is in the Warriors' final 17.</p>

<p>Warriors win 24-20. Tui Lolohea my man of the match.</p>
-
Yesssssss. Fair effort from our boys tonight. <br><br>
Great game from SJ. Best kicking game he has had for a long long time. He found space in and behind the Dogs outside backs. Some better 5th tackle option taking as well. <br><br>
Bodene made a difference and Lolohea at 5/8 is a lock. <br><br>
Josh Reynolds what a grub. -
<p>Much needed victory by the Warriors but why aren't I more happy?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>- RTS. Knee. FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK!</p>
<p>- Kiwis play Australia on May 6. FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK!</p>
<p>- Lolohea is now a key man for the club and to a lesser extent, country. Our new, improved Hohaia. Sign him up long term. Fullback/Stand off are his two positions from now on.</p>
<p>- And thank God we have Leuluai. Depth is a wonderful thing.</p>
<p>- A close win against a team on a five-day turn around is not good enough. Obvious the Doggies were tired but Warriors didn't keep the foot on the throat.</p>
<p>- The Bulldogs are my safe bet to be in the Grandfinal.</p>
<p>- The word that has escaped my fading memory for the past few weeks is "intensity". That's what these Warriors lack.</p>
<p>- Two players who have that intensity are Bodene Thompson and it appears Sam Lisone. But both are two of our smaller forwards.</p>
<p>- Unlike last week, SJ ran with the pill and behold, we scored points.</p>
<p>- Isaac Luke running from dummyhalf is a good thing. Long may it reign.</p>
<p>- David Fusitua needs to be in the team. Too talented to leave in NSW Cup. Much better than Jonathan Wright (who played alright tonight).</p>
<p>- Doggies are skilled at stripping the ball.</p>
<p>- Calling it now: Jeff Robson, Ken Maumalo and Konrad Hurrell will all leave the club before the June 30 deadline.</p>
<p>- Blake Ayshford. Maligned player but I have to admit....he's doing alright. As is Solomone Kata (still doesn't pass though).</p>
<p>- Bulldogs centre Kerrod Holland will be a star. Mark my words. Somewhere Chase Stanley is crying.</p> -
<p>Newcastle Knights are in for a loooonnnggg season. Just got shagged 53-0 by the Broncos.</p>
