Round 5 Team v Warriors

[Funky Chicken]

Warriors have whole country to pick juniors from...RL and RU...plus Australia.

Warriors are beatable...if we get physical with them, then run them around in circles, they tire.

Problem is our backline is so slow, they couldn't run out of sight on a dark night and our 5/8 is huge pile of steaming dogshit, the sooner Brian "Lobotomised" Smith realises this and gives guys like Tagive, Henry, Bosden, Takarangi a go the better we will be.

Hopefully come match day there are one or two changes. Even though we got smacked by 40 last week, we put in a solid 35 minutes in the first half. If a little luck had of gone our way we could have put some points on. BJ fell just short, Perrets try was disallowed, and there were a few other plays where we came close.

Giving Smith the benefit of the doubt based on the first half we need to stick with a similar team. We simply do not have the depth to make mass changes just yet.

Hopefully Moga comes into the team, moreso to get Aubusson in the backrow. I haven't seen Peni since the trials but hopefully he is getting close.

Once JWH and Kennedy come off we struggle a bit, so hopefully Tasi and Masoe do better this week. I would like to see Bosden get a run ahead of Arona.

Smith is a ****ing retard and needs to be sacked immediately.

Aubusson is unquestionably our best player. His preferred position is right side 2nd row. He should not be moved to left centre to accommodate a ****ing hack ranga who has not done a thing in first grade since his debut game.

The only time we've looked dangeroius ALL YEAR is the brief times our inept halves have actually given Maubs some early ball down the right edge. Against souths he set up the winning try. Against the Raiders he did the same thing combining with SKD.

Playing Aubusson at left centre is worse than playing Anasta at fullback.

He did score match winning tries against Souffs and the Dogs in 2010 whilst playing left centre, after we had injuries out there.

No doubt his best position is on the right hand side but I guess we are limited for options on the left. BJ just isn't coming along and Moga obviously isn't considered to be ready yet.

I have kept quiet.

I have not lost patience.

I think I have a pic of Smith as a lad


And this is something he should have learned a long time ago.

Judging from teh week's performances, there will be 3 changes to this lineup. Unfortunately none involve dropping Mini and Anasta, But it will be interesting.

What are the three changes?

What are the three changes?

I dont think Mose will be there. I reckon he's carrying an injury too. Dont be surprised if Bosden makes his debut. And dont be surprised if Smiffs love child The Untall Cannonball returns and orbs is back in the pack.

If Moga is to debut it will be at home not GC. He might this week.

Thing is 95% of all NRL wingers would have scored this try easily and there would have been no need for the video ref, but this guy over the years has developed an uncanny knack to bomb the easiest of opportunities. He runs out of dummy half and he is a good guy but otherwise he offers our team nothing.

So we drop our best performing back rower on the weekend, and play our best back rower in the centres.
Smith out.

Oh **** me, Archer is one of our refs just to rub salt into the wounds.

GO AWAY TONY.

Moga and Taka aren't named for Newtown, it's now safe to say this team named is just bullshit.

[Guest]

I love watching the warriors play. Either way it will be an entertaining match.

They have a big mobile pack, speed to burn out-wide and second phase play through Mateo. I think it will be a high scoring game.

Alofa Alofa injured ?

Wasn't named in Newtown despite good form.
