@mariner4life Wow.....I thought he (along with RTS) has been the Warriors most consistent performer during his time at the club.
As others have mentioned Green has been mainly poor with some okay to good moments.
I hate when we go to him on the last. His short and (not so) long kicking game is very bad.
Also on RTS, he’s had an up and down year by his standards. Quite a few errors this season.
From my armchair I reckon Harris and Maumalo have been our best

Sheesh, the Warriors are going to get hammered this weekend. Player leaving midweek, coach tells them he'd rather coach another poor team.
Well, I don't really want to break my annual watch the Warriors lose live in Sydney so it's not too much of an issue. Also, finally after 5 years here Manly haven't taken the game on the road so I get to go to Brookvale (luckily my mate is a Manly member).

i read an interesting article about RTS and Tedesco, and how Tedesco has pulled ahead because he has developed his game. Tedesco has added a passing element to his attack, and it's freeing up the Roosters. The criticism of RTS was he isn't a different, or more rounded player to what he was two years ago.
Brilliant running fullback? yes. More rounded player? No.
Thought it was a pretty valid take to be honest

Was it last year that the Warriors were not totally crap? RTS was coming into the line and passing - almost playing a fullback/six role. But that has disappeared as the Warriors have turned to total shit and now he's started making idiotic mistakes usually made by his teammates.
TBH, I think Tedesco or Tommy Turbo or any decent fullback would likely be regressing if in this current Warriors side.
-
@mariner4life it's absolutely valid. But then no one in the history of rugby league went to the Warriors to become more well rounded?
-
Sounds like Payten had at one point made a considered decision to stay. Then...

I can't quite believe Payton was the best of those choices but it kinda sums up the Warriors attitude of not changing anything thats broke.
I'd like to see them take a chance on those two brothers for a couple of years. They sound forward thinking and driven. Whats the worst that can happen? Another disappointing season?

Agreed. We'll probably end up with some washed up bigger name who will fail just like the rest

some conjecture part of the problem was they only wanted to give Todd a year, then get their real first choice in
That would be astoundingly bad management. So, exactly what we expect

Just like signing dead duck Kearney to a multi year extension then firing him less than a year in

And who is that?
Green and Griffin seem to be the favourites now. Will George and Robinson swallow their pride and re-consider the Walker bros?

I bloody hope so. Its time to do something bold and different

@South-Africa-Man I think this is only Botha that could get a rise out of an NZ league player
this is without a doubt your best ever post. Outstanding humour

Desperate times call for desperate measures I suppose. The Worriers are once again at the foot of the table showcasing another under performing New Zealand team. The Worriers should watch footage of prime Frans Botha in order the inspire themselves to great performances as he is the polar opposite of the Worriers players.
Your posts make me wish Jaguars4life or whatever his name is was still around.

Another nuisance soon to be cut short I'd expect

Subtle. Like a sledgehammer

The latest news is that Nathan Brown will be the new Warriors coach.
