The NRL Season of 2016
-
<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>

<p>Is it just me or are ACL injuries more common in contact sports in recent years?</p>
