@bayimports arrgggh bugger, didn’t know Tuapiki was injured
yes him and no ones surprise Berry lol, currently the new (ish) injuries
Such a shame he’s so injury prone, I rate him when he’s firing.
Surely he’ll be shopped to the Super League when his contract is finished.
I've said it before, but of all players hyped across all sports Berry is the one I don't get. I've never seen anything from him that makes me think he lives up to the hype. He doesn't have express pace, he doesn't beat players at will, his defence is average, he's not hard like his old man, but apparently he's good at chasing kicks (and according to @bayimports good at feeding his wings).
The simple (sad?) fact is the Warriors best centre is Pompey, and who the hell would have believed that if someone predicted it 3 or so years ago.
Berry was awful probably even by his own standards last year, when he is on, he shows glimpses of what he could be, but if we're honest we haven't seen nearly enough.
Agree with you that Pompey appears to be clear number 1, but hoping Ali L stays injury free this year, he looked good in the small amount of game time we did see of him
Yeah I'm keen as to see whether Ali can live up to his potential.
In all honesty I don't mind CNK there if all other options aren't available - rather him than resorting to Capewell again.
I do find it weird that a centre hasn't been on our shopping list considering the almost perma injury of Berry and Ali.
Its kind of weird given how important they are to the game, I get the focus on fixing other stuff first, but to Webby's credit he has fixed a lot of areas so agree kind of weird we're still not focusing on this
I dont like edge forwards playing centre, but Leka is probably already elite status for this. Just would prefer we either develop and keep or buy an elite centre
I've been fighting (and losing) with the Warriors over second rowers playing centre for over a decade now.
I think playing Leka at centre stunts his growth in his actual position, and stunts the team's growth as we're moving a key weapon.
absolutely, I did highlight I don't want to see it, just guessing the Webby play book. Maybe we get lucky and the 6 man bench eliminates this.. time will tell
