How did the young winger go, Adam Pompey? He went to my school at Onewhero before he went to Wesley. The only other known league player from my home region is David Ewe.
He was steady. Tough conditions so the ball didn’t see the wingers as much as we usually play down the sides.
@Sneakdefreak I was worried when Fusitua was ruled out. He scores tries but more importantly he’s a key guy for us when carrying the ball out of our half. Always makes metres.

'He even did a haka' Pompey
Adam Pompey spoke to Vodafone Warriors TV after making his NRL debut in the 19-18 win over the Cronulla Sharks in Wellington.

Fusitua and Maumalo always provide big metres in the middle of the game due to their hit ups but it was good to see the Warriors turn to dummyhalf running instead of making Pompey and Ayshford imitate Fus and Big Ken. If we do both (dummyhalf run and use Fus and Ken) consistently the team will go on a roll.

Cam Smith is a fucking marvel. 401st game yesterday, did you see how he played?
Caught part of the Warriors documentary yesterday. It made me pine for the days when we still wouldn't make finals, but by god at least we were fun to watch. We are so shit now, we have one player that is worth paying to watch. One. And i wonder if he regrets his move?

He's the reigning MVP so I would say he's fine.

He could be forgiven when you look at some of the players he has to put up with.
-
if he has then he's odds on to move to the Titans!
-
but far out, I hope he and his team are looking out for his health. Dude looks stressed beyond belief and those eyes! pits of despair
-
But he has all the good players the warriors have let go.

Jesus the NRL judiciary is a complete lottery. Penrith's Kikau gets 2 weeks for a "shoulder charge" that he was already binned for. Look at the footage it's barely a penalty, let alone a binning. 2 weeks from the judiciary is an absolute joke.
There's a video of it here.
Panthers stunned after Kikau gets two-game ban for shoulder charge
Panthers coach Ivan Cleary said he was confused about what constituted a shoulder charge if the game was prepared to set the bar with Billy Kikau's latest hit.

Did the Panthers get away with an illegal tackle in a previous game? Only reason I see for all these inconsistent decisions is that it's a "make up" for a previous error. They do it all the time during a game.

James Maloney off to Catalan to start his retirement. Great player for every team he's been on.
Easily one of the greatest players of this decade. Just turned any team he was on into a winner. Would have won the Warriors a title too if they had convinced him to stay on after 2012 but in true Warriors fashion.....

interesting quote from i think Paul Gallen the other day that he has a shelf life before he wears on everybody. Maybe he's a pesty grub on and off the field
but the bloke is just a winner. It's what he does. He's actually underrated because he is never spoken about among the stars of the game, but the bloke brings results.

He's 5'9" and 80kg, of course he gets on people's nerves.
