[Roosterfarian]

How does Kane Evans go from prop at a premiership winning club to not even making the bench for the Warriors?

This guy was supposed to be the next big thing?

[Waylander]

21-MAN SQUAD v NZ WARRIORS

New faces, new combinations, new expectations (or is it NO expectations?). Will the young guns enhance their
reputations, or be shot down by the fickle Chookpen fans?

Here's the team as named, but as always, there could be some changes come game day:

ROOSTERS
1. Tedesco
2. Tupuo
3. Morris J
4. Manu
5. Morris B
6. Hutchison
7. Walker
8. Liu
9. Lussick
10. SST
11. Chrichton
12. Tupouniua
13. Radley

INTERCHANGE:
14. Ikuvalu
15. JWH
16. Butcher N
17. Baker

RESERVES:
18. Butcher E
19. Marschke
20. Suaalii
21. Hau Tapuha

Looks like Ikuvalu on the bench is to make the Manu move to 5/8 if needed throughout the game? Could be a late change to have Marschke in late as utility to cover hooker etc but I suppose Radley can swap to hooker if needed (although I doubt he is very match fit)

Not a great sign that Robbo doesn't seem to be confident that Hutch and Walker will last the 80 minutes but I guess it is playing it safe

Has the athleticism but doesn't have the required ticker to make it

[BenCumminsIsACheat]

Referee for our Easter Sunday game is Ben Cummins

I've heard he is quite the cheat

Coming back from Injury i understand

[Bahrain Rooster]

Is Marschke our halfback from the 2016 U20 GF? Interesting to see him named but I doubt he plays.

[Johnny73]

1 James Tedesco, 2 Daniel Tupou, 3 Josh Morris, 4 Joey Manu, 5 Brett Morris, 6 Drew Hutchison, 7 Sam Walker, 8 Isaac Liu, 9 Freddy Lussick, 10 Siosiua Taukeiaho, 11 Angus Crichton, 12 Sitili Tupouniua, 13 Victor Radley

Bench: 14. Matt Ikuvalu, 15. Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, 16. Nat Butcher 17. Fletcher Baker


I do have one question. When was the last time Joey Manu played 5/8th?

He is one of the bear's players promoted temporarily as part of our injury exemption - as you said I think he will not play as he is just injury cover. Would have probably trained minimally with our squad over the summer - mostly just with the bears

I saw the Dogs were trying to shop Dylan Napa to the Panthers as well. Both of those dudes have not kicked on.

[Paddo Colt 61]

[QUOTE=NorthChook; ".... we have the Warriors team in early. "

Jeez they're a big side and one of the bogey teams for the Chooks as well. Here's hoping.

[Cooko]

I can't help but think we might still end up with Suaalii in the centres, Joey to 5/8 and Hutch to the bench by kick off.
