I'd rather play both and loop junk centres

Why would the Tigers make it easy for the Rorters to bring in SBW just for a young kid who probably won't play NRL for a few years ?

Because they want to make their own team better rather than being spiteful? If helping 1 club gets you head of 14 other clubs it doesn't really matter that the 1 other club also benefited

So what I am getting is that Angus will be back sometime in 2020

2 weeks was Roosters FB group
6-8 weeks was allegedly reliable long time poster on Chookpen
NRL Causally Ward just guessing

Devo.

Warriors players must be scratching their heads. Wouldn't be surprised if a few more start thinking about packing the season in. Wouldn't blame them at all.

It's a total disgrace and Peyton already said clubs only paying Warriors lip service only offering inexperienced rookies

Such terrific management, their front office is a shining beacon. Even internationals will go there for a ham sandwich just to be a part of it all

Wrong, Melbourne were minor premiers last year

Pretty weird take though - plenty of clubs have their own injuries problems to deal with, do the Warriors expect clubs to give them somebody out of their best 17, or 18th/19th man? that's silly.

Current bench is Carrigan,Tevaga,McCullough + Johnson (Cleary/Hunt in halves) so Moses would be a depth purchase over Fogarty who is current 18th man
Will see what happens this week first

Yeah dunno why I put in minor premiers, I obviously meant premiers.
But thanks for correcting me mate, I really appreciate that.

Hetherington has experience and was nowhere near the 21

I'm not sure what the point is here, how many similar players are there that aren't being loaned to the Warriors?

This was a list of players not playing in round 1 and 2 that could have been loaned to the Warriors. Has obviously changed a bit now but plenty of talent out there not being used

1.Triston Sailor
2.George Jennings
3.Tautau Moga
4.Josh Hoffman
5.Herbie Farnsworth
6.Jai Field
7.Sean O'Sullivan
8.Daniel Alvaro
9.Harry Grant
10.Jayson Bukuya
11.Jackson Ford
12.Chris McQueen
13.Billy Magoulias
14.Nicho Hynes
15.Kyle Turner
16.Jack Stockwell
17.Lloyd Perrett

4 or 5 of those don't have NRL contracts this year. O'Sullivan has been recovering from an ACL and only just back at training. Few others were on the fringe of first grade if not playing first grade by round 3?

Yeah few blokes floating round that didn't have contracts
Most of these guys weren't being named in 21 man squads at the time I threw this together

The thing I find completely bizarre is the Broncos are (apparently) going to loan Bullemor to the Raiders, when we don't even have 21 fit players on our roster.

Maybe Siebs is hoping use Bullemor as a spy to find out how a real team trains.

Personally, despite being pretty raw in the game against hte Roosters, he should have been starting over Teo or Oates in the previous few weeks.

So I can turn Koro to Hunt and leave me $200k to help upgrade Friend or Young next week. Most likely for Taupau, Tevaga, or Twal a little later.

Plenty of clubs are managing to base themselves out of the country they live in.

Warriors have basically decided to sacrifice this year in order to do what they can to keep the competition going. It is a bit of a leap hoping other clubs would hurt themselves out of nothing more than the kindness to keep the Warriors going, but it would have been nice to see the NRL step in a bit more to help them out.

I guess Cam Smith visited their dressing room, so they can all just be happy with that.

This week I need to play 2 of averillo talau and fidow. What would you guys rank them from 1st to worst

I am extremely empathetic to the situation the Warriors are in, and appreciate what they're doing. I have no issues with any players that decide to go back home, that's up to them and their family situation.

But asking other coaches who are out there a) trying to win a comp, and b) trying not to lose their own jobs - to give hand over players that are in their best 21(ish), yeah, probably going to struggle to get much help.

Agree, maybe NRL probably could have done more, but its a very tricky situation, what can they do? Force clubs to give up a specified player, or draw names from a hat?

Whatever decision you make will be wrong. Go with the 2 you will enjoy watching the most this week and be thankful for the 30 points combined

Hammer is sucha pot luck I would avoid him tbh.

Surely though you can loop?

For mine Talau, Averillo, and Fidow but I am not high on Fidow.
