Talk is Katoa may come onto the bench.

Hess looked shit and not sure I want to hold him.

Wacko was reporting Holland injured & out of R2, which is probably where Katoa talk come from

Hess basically scored bang on his average base stats for when he was scoring 45+ at 2rf, 30 tackles and 92 metres.

7 missed tackles obviously the killer, I didn't watch him closely enough to see how much of that was David Fifita

I don't have him, but I'd stick with him another week.

Poor Holland, plays zero minutes, gets injured.

Those with Su'A and/or Levi. Thoughts on trading or holding at this stage?

Trade targets would probably be Guler for $ itb + cash generation, or Horsburgh for good points + cash gen. Obviously wary of returning Raiders in the coming weeks - assuming comp continues as normal

TLT for the Warriors - hey here are all 21 players we have in Australia take your pick

Did Eliesa Katoa play all 52 mins on an edge?

Impressive stats, I didn't watch him closely though.

I didn't watch the whole game unfortunately cuz I was working so could only catch some on my break. Pass on that one

The climate change activists are hardcase re the virus. They always harp on climate change is due to over population of the planet. Mother nature sends a virus that's going to wipe out billions of people & now they don't want to die lol.

I was watching the game but the walls in the other room has recently been painted so I decided to go in there and watch it dry.

Nah, some of the reserve graders stayed there and joined them.

George Williams - no discussion but he was really impressive IMO. Difficult price, but what are people's thoughts on his long-term scoring?

I have him in vsdt & sc where he was cheap but he's too expensive in fantasy which is a shame because he'd be in my team otherwise.

There was a video on NRL.com with RTS posted earlier. The way he was speaking and some of his choice words made it sound like they were in it for the long haul.

You honestly sound like a Russian twitter bot here.

It is kind of bullshit. They kind of get guilt tripped into staying otherwise the side is out of the comp or they get replaced by other random players. A shitty situation.

I would probably assume that if they were to bow out of the comp the NRL would more than likely impose some form of financial ramificiations* and I think the Warriors head office know they probably can't afford that and would most likely fold from the NRL if that were to happen.... making way for a Perth or Central QLD team to come into the mix.

*I have no idea what the financial ramifications of them bowing out will be but I assume there would be some. They can't not play and get paid the same amount of money that the teams that are still playing are getting paid.

I have no doubt he was being genuine, but I doubt the rest of the team have the same commitment - you can see it on the field every week

He reminds me of Wighton last year. Awkward price but those who picked him up were well off for it.
