        Fletcher would have been a chance if he hadn't been injured for most of the year. Genuinely cannot see anyone else making cause lots of the next best players in SG ball are a year young. Davis, Sorovi, Bloomfield, Nun, Kotorac, Trey-Stewart, Nauer, Risati and Polley are only 18 years old this year. So they will all be a chance next year if they continue to improve and play well.

        Apparently u19 origin may change to u21 origin which in my opinion is stupid. The best u21 are playing in the NRL or wont be released by their NRL club because they are next in line for the NRL so the injury risk means they dony play.

Nanva over Kelly and Samrani over Russell or Penis.

Either way, the Warriors will run up a cricket score against that shit team.

Forward pack is soft as shit

Bring in teancum brown, change it up

Paulo is rubbish he needs to be benched permanently, no foresight whatsoever from our R&R to have a replacement ready for this year

  Paulo was our best forward for the past two weeks, our fault was doing one hit run up the whole game when manly was playing second phase play in the second half.

  lol Paulo is rubbish...that'll do me
  - Joel K > CP April 28, 2026 at 4:58pm
    
    You think he's playing well enough to justify his $950,000 salary?

      Not only is he playing well enough the clubs extending him 😂
      
      What do3s that say it tells me we've got no middles coming that can do the job right now.We missed on Kolomatangi & Barnett not that we had a chance so the answer is Paulo for mother year or 2.
      
      This is what it is.Paulo's gone great guns the last 2 weeks but he needs help R and R the floors yours.

Gerard Sutton is our ref for Saturday.

  Statistically speaking Sutton means a 7% greater chance of us losing compared to all other referees.
  
  So statistically he doesn't hate us, but he doesn't help us.
  
  We may need devine intervention. This Warriors squad is looking good this year.
