<p> </p>
<p>Unless they can't sign with any other clubs I doubt any of those players sign with the Warriors.</p>
<p>I would target Greg Eastwood but I think the Doggies will resign him (unless Foran signs there in which case the Warriors will have a shot if they throw money his way).</p>
<p>Josh Hoffman is an option for the outside backs but the Warriors have Fusitua, Kata, Maumalo, Lolohea and RTS.</p>
<p>I suspect Bunji will try and convince the Warriors to sign him but they seem intent on trying Lolohea or Roache in the halves with SJ next season. Most likely Bunji retires and works for Fox Sports.</p>
<p>One player I'm expecting the Warriors to sign (and wasn't named in the above list) is Elijah Taylor. Need more hard-working forwards and ET played his best footy when with the Warriors.</p> -
<p>Is he up for grabs Sneak?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Eastwood would have to come for cheap. He's a limited-minute bench player at the end of his career, your best deal is normally at the club you're currently playing for. </p> -

<div>Elijah Taylor? He isn't signed with any club for 2017 yet.</div> -
<p>sweet, he'll be cheap then</p>

Just watching the Matty Johns show. Jesus, I am sick of the Hayne wank fest.<br><br>
Yeah, he's a pretty bloody good league player, but get a grip. He played a few games of NFL, and then 'chose' to leave, coz he wasn't quite good enough.<br><br>
That doesn't make him some kind of super god as the Aussie media would lead you to believe. -
<div>A large crowd, not many sporting events on in NZ right now, all eyes on the Warriors and their great run of form.... I should have seen this coming.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Some thoughts:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>- Lolohea played the worst game I've seen in a long time by a NRL player. He was a trainwreck and looked scared. Didn't know where to be on defence and refused to put his body on the line. With about 25 minutes to go in the first half myself and most of the South Stand were thinking he needed to be pulled for Blake Ayshford (who was warming up at the time). Said last week that he was out of form but seems far worse than that.</div>
<div>- Maumalo wasn't much better but it was probably more due to Lolohea (he got better once Fusitua moved to fullback after Lolohea was finally pulled). If Maumalo and Lolohea had got their act together the Warriors would have won. They didn't and the Bunnies ran riot on the two.</div>
<div>- Adam Reynolds won the game for the Bunnies with his short kicking game, mainly in the direction of Lolohea and Maumalo. Someone needed to put the big hurt on him but didn't.</div>
<div>- Kata was in fine form again this week with another awesome intercept try. 14 tries for the season isn't bad but Fusitua has 11 with far less games so I guess that's even better.</div>
<div>- Greg Inglis is massive. I don't think it really shows on television but when he bowled past Fusitua (who is 6'3) he looked like an ogre.</div>
<div>- Warriors need the Panthers to lose tomorrow but they're playing the Knights so it means the Warriors are out of the top eight. And playing the Cowboys next week.</div> -
<p>Cowboys and the Sharks have fallen in a bit of a hole leading in to finals. It's so hard to be up for too long in this league. Unless you are Melbourne i guess. Although that could change in Canberra tonight. </p>

<p>Fucking Warriors</p> -

<p>I think the Sharks and the Storm cant miss the top 2 now, so they might take the foot off the pedal a bit </p> -

<p>Storm got pumped by the Raiders last night. Raiders real darkhorses now.</p> -
<p>Warriors confirm they are in talks with Foran for a one-year-deal at the Warriors in 2017.</p>
