Nice write up sneak.
I see the Kata bubble has bursted ... I'm sure I may have suggested this might happen.
I actually thought Hoffman ran pretty well tonight but showed Warriors level off the ball rather than Storm level off the ball.
Our pack is a bit powder puff really - yet the TV dudes over here always go on about how strong they are, it's bemusing.
Hopefully Foran actually makes the field for the Warriors - in the interview they were playing while he was warming up he was talking about how he was a big Warriors and Stacey Jones fan as a kid - so some game time would be nice.

Think it has more to do with his lack of trust in Maumalo and I don't blame him. Maumalo seems lost at times out there....

I don't know what his inability to catch a ball, hold on to a ball has to do with Maumalo ....

It shows their lack of analysis of the current side , and are just using the stereotypical view of the warriors over here ( all brawn no brains)

Before I got the shits with the useless fluffybunnies and stopped watching, I heard the comms say that this is Lillymans 9th season at the Warriors. Didn't realise he'd been here for so long, I thought it would have been about 5 or 6.
As for the Warriors, burn the place down and start from scratch somewhere else.
Kaikohe might be a good option, could start by filling the team with their hood rats, they've got more mongrel than this team. -

In general the league analysis is usually pretty good. Much better than what Sky serves up for the rugby. And the odd commentator will mention it's a myth but then it will get forgotten by the co-commentator or panel.

This is fucked. We are so shit.
Our forwards lack power, aggression, and technique. Slow play the ball after slow play the ball. Barely denting the line, so our backs are playing off shit ball.
Agree with sneak though, it's all coming form hooker, where Luke is shit. And the bench is all wrong as well, you need someone with quick feet to play late in each half. Pure bulk won't cut it.
There is a bit of that throughout the side, just a bunch of big blokes, where is the speed? Maumolo is a big waste of space. Kata was really good last year, this year he's rubbish. Fusitua isn't seeing the ball. Ayshford wouldn't get a gig for most other sides.
SJ tried yesterday, he touched the ball a lot. Tui had a go as well, but it looked like everyone met in the carpark.
We suck. Still! Same shit as well. Fucking Warriors.

What sort of money is Luke on ? Quite a bit I would imagine ,
I can remember not so long ago before he left Sydney , people were saying he was challenging Smith as the best hooker in the game
-
@kiwiinmelb he genuinely was, and i thought the change in the wrestle interpretations would suit him, but alas...
Has any player got better at the Warriors than when he arrived?

Price didn't get worse ....

Leaving Foran behind in Sydney to heal and spend time with his kids, what could possibly go wrong with that..
-
He better get back over here. He's been named at stand off to face the GC Titans.
