oof, we've got Penrith this weekend. And as if that wasn't hard enough, our team is fucked by injuries.

SJ has been all sorts of ordinary, but he's still been better than TMM. Which means SJ out, and TMM to halfback is, at best, concerning. Do we have another fit half? no, we do not, so CNK comes in to stand off. What could possibly go wrong.
The young headless chook gets to start at fullback. He's quicker than CNK, but that's really all you can say about the young fulla yet.

The pack is okay, but that backline... eeesh.

Apparently SJ has been crocked for several weeks, he hasn't been fit enough to practice, no wonder he's not in good form

Big week off the pitch for the NRL, it must be "magic dust round"
Kent checks himself in for a mental health check, even more ironic since he has publicly lambasted players for doing so previously
Fafita does a DCE triple backflip
Wakeham arrested for drug dealing
Mystery rapist
Mystery team mate texting younger sibling of said team mate

and not one game played yet!

[mariner4life]

the rugby league soap opera delivering in spades. You didn't even mention Wayne back to save the Bunnies

Absolute worst round for a high profile player to be a late out. Oh, Reece Walsh isn't playing...

[mariner4life]

for all legal ramifications, i am in no way insinuating Reece has anything to do with anything, it's just the worst time for him to hurt his knee

absolutely, Im actually surprised one of the so called journalists want played that angle yet

and how could i forget Wayne!

And there's the difference between sides like Brisbane (Penrith too) and the rest. Down on star power but still find ways to win. Yes the game got messy for Brisbane after the first 20 where the weather got the best of them, but they still found a way to win without 2 of their big 3, and the 3rd one Haas playing on one leg.

Missed all that. Link please? (Or do I have to do my own research?)

Another game day, same old warriors. Can't even get the kick off right

[canefan]

Martin's kicking game is killing us right now. But we are creating breaks which is encouraging

[canefan]

Now Egan is gone. And now we might have gifted Penrith a try

[canefan]

Jackson Ford also off the field. We'll be lucky to finish the game with a full team

[canefan]

Nice try boys. But might have lost Montoya in the process. Charnze can stay in the centres if he likes, already feels more influential than Roger so far

[canefan]

It may lack organisation at times. But the young kids are giving it a good crack right now

[canefan]

Jazz has already been pinged for a poor play the ball. But he just doesn't learn, another loose play that could have been called. And now the Panthers run through our suddenly leaky defence to score under the sticks

[Nepia]

Shit, I think that try might break us. We've so far managed to bring Penrith down to our level but I fear that will be the kick for them to run over us now.

[canefan]

Fonua Blake with a coach killer

[canefan]

That's two intentional knock downs from Penrith now. We look better attaching out wide rather than cutting back. Warriors couldn't convert late possession so trail by 6 at the half

[canefan]

Charnze forces Yeo to the bin, having a very good game

[canefan]

Great try warriors

[canefan]

And another try! One to each of the centres now. I think Roger might return to the team riding the bench
