    In addition to limited minutes and problems with Taylor, Farah's scores were lower than his peak years due to defending wider during the games. At his peak(for fantasy) Farah was defending in the middle all game, the last 2 years he has been spending some time defending out wide

    @Milchcow, don't think Peats will end up playing 80 minutes? With Mortimer and Srama likely not being there next year, Friend retiring. Roberts may be an option on the bench, but hopefully Peats would slot into the 2nd Row for some time then.

    Is Segeyaro signed anywhere for next year? Though I do see your point regarding the HoK position.

    People were up in arms at how bad the joke was, not the context. That's why I made a bogus apology.

    Coen Hess probably another to avoid.

    Unless Ethan Lowe struggles to recover from his injury I guess he'll still have a bench role next year

    I don't think that is leaving out any supremely awesome players
    Brad Takarangi, George Jennings, Vave and what not would be in contention, but I don't think the team is totally stacked.

    Taka just re-signed for another 3 years today I can't see him happy to be playing NSW cup for that long

    Seeing we're getting all professional and playing management bingo. I'm interested in people's opinion on the Warriors FWOW (future way of working) under Kearney and how that will effect some of the fantasy guns moving forward.

    Thinking off the cuff do the Warriors change their style?  I would hate to think they do as a spectator but Kearney might feel like they need to tighten up a bit and play more formulaic.

    I've already seen people suggest Foran plays lock with Hoffman and Mannering to play the edges and Tui and Johnson in the halves. Incredible waste that is I think

    With foran there i think that allows Johnson and rts to play what they see. I reckon Thompson will not have as good of a year fantasy wise next year because of forans influence. I reckon foran would be in line to be the next captain.

    Lolohea would be perfect at the storm and would suit them with green leaving.

    ^ That has to be a joke right. Foran is too good to waste there.. a spine of Luke, Johnson, Foran, and Tuivasa-Scheck is an international spine. Place Tui in the CTRs with Kata. He can pass the ball and create some offense.

    No way. Makes no sense. Although Kearney did play et at hooker and Harris at 5/8th with hiku at hb in a test team

    Usually my posts in here are half serious half tongue in cheek. Has the Foran deal been actually been formally announced ?

    Everyone else associated with the rumour has come back home for family reasons, may not play overseas because of family, has retired or who's FY17 contract has already been paid ?????

    I think Tui will be in my starting team next year. I just hope he is playing for the Storm.

    By all accounts they are waiting on the NRL to register the contract. But Managing Director for The Warriors has confirmed it. http://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2016-09-22/kieran-foran-signs-for-nz-warriors/7869776?pfmredir=sm
