PRE-GAME Round 13 - Warriors vs Broncos

[lionred]

Completely agree Wolfie. Its not up to the young blokes. Its easy to put blame on them though as an easy excuse of why we lost. It was our attack that really let us down imo. It was clever coaching to target the right side with no Gillett and rattle young sua and new combo of maranta and roberts. But geez sua made 45 tackles so couldnt really ask for more in defence from him. Im not Marantas biggest fan but he was showing good form until his injury this year and will get back there. I dont think one of our young guns once let a try in directly though and I think a few of them played over their weight for us while some of their heavier team mates played under

My biggest fear is for this game is not our stars missing or our inexperienced players. Its the crisis talks the warriors have had last week and the fresh fire that might come from that. On paper they are so talented and i know are just waiting for it all to click into place.

Kodi to start according to the Courier Mail, Waddell did not travel.

Reading on Twitter that all 4 Origin players will line up against the Warriors.
Also read that Nikorima is likely to start the match

That's going to be a problem.

On the defensive side of things. And we'll lose that spark late in the game.

Warriors are just going to run their big forwards at him all night.

 

[Unbreakable]

Interesting, I guess we're gonna roll with 4 forwards on the bench, which means we may actually see ~20-30 minutes of McGuire at Hooker, because I can't see Kodi being able to handle 80.

Any idea whos going to spend some time at Hooker?

 

[Bucking Beads]

Surprising that Bennett is only resting Gillett and Parker tbh

 

[jarro65]

You'd have to think Glenn will play at hooker at some stage ?

 

[Blox_party87]

Mcguire will slot in at hooker if Nikorima needs a rest

 

[Huge]

Oatesy had a bad head injury tonight in origin
I think him and Gillett will get a rest this week and Parker and Thaiday will get a game off after origin two or three

You can get a 'good head injury' ha ha ?

Any reason for Waddell not travelling ?

Said to be a leg injury.

Said to be a leg injury.

Thanks, appreciate the effort.

 

[LittleDavey]

Yep, Waddell with a leg injury. Serious doubt over Kodi playing in the middle against the Warriors, they're some big boys... Throw in their crisis talks, our boys backing up from origin and Manu coming back, and hey presto - I smell a large Warriors win coming up. I hope I'm wrong.

Parker is playing ... He is resting Oates
