god fucking dammit
Dylan Walker leaving and heading back to Aus for "personal reasons"
I know he's been hurt a bit, but he's generally a reason when we play good.
Ultimate squaddie Jazz Tevaga is off too. Seems a locker room, heart and soul type guy. But i will not miss a shit ineffective hit up, and the inevitable turnover/dumb penalty on the back of it.
-
If they replace Jazz with a junior then I'm all good with him moving on, however, if they replace him with another journeyman Aussie then I'm going to go out and kick the first person I see with the name Cam or George.
Maybe these changes are also a signal that Webster has realised his little man bench strategy has been worked out and we're going to start playing with an actual prop rotation (especially without AFB to score tries at will in close).
Walker has been really good for us so bummer he's leaving.

Can we shoot dickfingers Ford in to the sun while we are at it?

Well he covers this part from your post so you don't get to miss it:
"But i will not miss a shit ineffective hit up, and the inevitable turnover/dumb penalty on the back of it." -
Ford can actually run a line and hit a hole. His problem is, he's more likely than not to drop it in a dangerous area.

Jazz deserves a good send off just for being a team man, but won’t be missed on the field. Dylan Walker seriously reinvigorated his career here and will be hard to replace.
Given the halves scenario maybe they are hoping CHT can play the Walker role.
Might be how they fit TMM, CHT and Metcalf in.
The young warriors forwards like Laban probably fill other role.
Interestingly Ford is second in the NRL for decoy runs, personally happy with that as it means he has had to catch lessAs for this weekend can SJ find a win, Feel for TMM who started slow but has played better than SJ this season
-
Sad to see Walker go. A genuine ball playing back rower that has vision are rare as hens teeth.
Agree that Jazz deserves to be sent off the right way. He had his moments on the field but in recent years all I have heard has been his presence around the club. Hard as nails but a softly spoken guy.
There are a couple of bigger forwards playing in reserve grade that are there or thereabouts.
-
Was it Walker or SJ who was going? Seriously it’s Parrafuckingmatta
-
Punt Shaun Johnson in to the fucking sun. He is absolutely fucking cooked. Our attack is dogshit. We have one sweep play that we run so often even the fucking Eels can defend it.
Otherwise it's one off hit ups.
We are shit. And I fear for next year honestly. There are some very average players in this squad
-
@mariner4life average can work with some creativity in the halves, SJ is so predictable it’s not funny and no longer has pace. I feel for him as he is a nice bloke, but second the motion to send him into the sun
-
When Shaun Johnson is effective he digs into the line with his runs. When he is not he runs across field early and passes too far behind the line. We have seen more of the latter this this year. The effectiveness of Nikore’s runs in particular are reduced.
Warriors just not doing the basics well - 6th play has been rubbish.
-
To be fair TMM has been average as well.
Yes Cooper, we don't make errors because we don't fucking try anything. We're boring and predictable.
-
Also that's not obstruction because the defender actively targets the lead runner. And why do they do that? Because of all the soft obstruction calls early in the year, so defenders are actively looking to make contact with lead runners to get tries rubbed out.
-
SJ doing his best to prevent spoon-bowl, the only thing interesting left for Parra v Tigers

He has improved through the season and although not best halfback in comp offered more than SJ this season. Not hard though
