Fun fact: the only player Andrew Webster brought to the Warriors squad was Te Maire Martin. The rest were all signed before he came, meaning he created a map for success with the squad he had in front of him, figuring out how to combine the best of what each can do to win games.

According to Australian news site Code, the salaries of the Warriors spine are as follows: 1. Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad $500,000 6. Luke Metcalf $250,000 7. Shaun Johnson $600,000 9. Wayde Egan $500,000 Total: $1.85 million If true, is it the best value spine in the comp?

I'm one of the biggest NSW apologists you'll see but I dont think you can say the Sua'ali'i hit didn't deserve to be a send off. It's super dangerous and the direct force to the head was significant. Sucks that it ruined the game but you can't soften rules like that one.

For the longest time as warriors fans, we have resigned ourselves to the fact that we couldn't possibly replace AFB with someone as good as him. Now, in Fish, it seems we've secured someone even better. The premiership window won't be closed in 2024 baby!

My last action in Brisbane was to give a homeless bloke $20. He had no shoes and was asking for food. I couldn't help the warriors win but at least I could help a bloke get a feed who otherwise wouldn't have had one. That's a win for me. Thanks Brisbane, that was fun.

Barnett stands there bleeding from the face, refusing to play the ball and just staring at the ref. The ref just stands there and goes, yeah? Eventually just passed the ball to the hooker and turns his back on the game, forcing the bunker to get involved. Well done Barny.

Cast your mind back a couple of years. Team separated from families, and living overseas. Roger, our captain and spiritual leader, walked out on the club. Our coach was sacked. Clubs were loaning us players to field a team. To be where we are in 2023 actually makes me emotional.

I've been quiet on it so far but I think the warriors are guilty of riding their brand and believing the hype machine thats been built around them. It's created an inflated sense of where we are at and I've seen evidence of it since the preseason.

The amount of players choosing to represent their heritage over Australia at the world cup should not surprise anyone. They've invested nothing in the green and gold jersey in recent years. No fixtures. No promotion. If you say origin is the pinnacle of RL, this is the price.

My thoughts on Magic Round in Brisbane, having been to it twice, is that it should stay there. Sports need mainstay events. Carnivals. Sydney has the GF. Brisbane should keep this. NZ should get an annual international tournament I reckon - especially with such a big PI base.

If SJ has a decent hammy injury, and the team plays well without him, we may not see him play NRL ever again. That only just occurred to me. And if that happens, his last game would be the biggest loss in our history. Doesn't seem right or fair.

I don't know why people feel so strongly about Sua'ali'i changing codes. He doesn't owe anybody anything, and it's not like we won't get more exciting young players come through. You didn't hear union bitch and moan when we landed Crichton and Murray. Good luck to the kid.
