    Foran has been given the No 22 jersey and may not be included in the team when the final 17 is named an hour before kickoff.

    But definitely back this weekend is Warriors fullback Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, who suffered from concussion in the round two game against the Storm, and it means with Issac Luke at hooker, the team will boast the most formidable spine in the NRL.

            @Sneakdefreak risky signing a power forward until he's 33. Great for Jason though.

              unusual signing ,

              The swans did something similar with Buddy Franklin , fist time I had heard of it ,

              I probably could understand it more for a gun playmaker type , a young JT or a young Cam Smith ,

              just hope for their sake , it doesnt come back and bite them

                @kiwiinmelb Personally hope Taumalolo does great but I do hope it comes back to bite the Cowboys on the backside (in salary cap terms).

                  So clearly his agents were using the Warriors to push up his price.

                  Hopefully he has a contract that allows the $$ they pay him to increase over the years.

                  @mariner4life Yeah, they really got stuck into everyone involved. One journo got stuck into the board, a few of the ex Tigers (Ben Elias was one) players got stuck into the board, a couple got stuck in to Moses and the other kid, then one of the journos who was getting stuck into the board got stuck into Benny Elias for defending the players, it was all over the show. Ikin displayed common sense - I quite like him on the show. Kent was just Kent. I've just read his SBW book and his bitterness and bullshit towards rugby in it has meant I find it hard to take him seriously at all these days.

                  But all in all it was a good night of TV (which I don't watch often).

                    I hate the Roosters so this is said through gritted teeth but...

                    The Roosters deserve to be discussed with the Raiders as the best teams to watch in the comp. They score a heap of highlight reel tries often from far out. Their attack is varied and not reliant on pressure and kicks for points. On defense the likes of Napa are hard as fuck and love to whack blokes.

                    They're tearing up the Bunnies, who are hampered by their rubbish Hooker

                      That said, Jared Warea-Hargreaves is a fucking cat. Loves a cheap shot on a halfback or a fullback, but when it gets tough amongst the big boys he doesn't want a bar of it.

                            Knights are getting arse raped right now by the Panthers. 34-0 in the 60th min.

                              Geez....Knights make a break from their own goal, Te Maire Martin runs down Nathan Ross, Nathan Ross plays the ball and..... no other Knights are there to pick up the ball so Martin just picks it up and runs it back.

                                  The young Kiwi fullback for the Doggies (Brad Abbey) is out of his depth in the NRL.....

                                  Kieran Foran starting against the Dragons tomorrow. Also James Gavet is in the side.

                                    Hasler is the next neck on the chopping block. Tigers will want to appoint a coach before there is competition in the marketplace

                                      @mariner4life The Bulldogs would want Cleary whereas the Tigers might be better off with Hasler or Toovey.
