Michael McGuire confirmed as new head coach of the Kiwis. No word yet if the Key is still the We.

Odd that it was announced last night on one of the Fox shows but only officially today by NZRL.
Hmm, wonder if he can convince any of our Tongans to come back - which only really means Taumalolo and Fusitua TBH.

A premiership winning coach , so he knows how to win , that is a massive bonus
Has history working with Kearney , they were both assistants together under Bellamy , that might be a bonus I would imagine if he wants to consult with him ,
Good appointment IMO , its not as though they would be queuing up for the job , not sure they couldve done much better
-
Heard that Isaac Luke was supportive so it's good to hear player support for the incoming coach
-
@bovidae Right now he would be one of the starting halves in the Kiwis side, especially if a number of Kiwis get an 'injury' the week before their match against England.
@sneakdefreak Would Foran be in the team on form? From what I have read - no.

If we were reduced to playing a forward at 6 then yes, otherwise no. It's less the fact we have players in form, more the fact we actually have more than two to choose from for once.
Oh, I forgot Nikorima as well although he's been punted back to hooker by Bennett.

Shouldn't be but Shaun Johnson (and Isaac Luke) probably won't be released by the Warriors for the test in Denver due to their injuries this season so you never know. Foran/Benji could be our halves combo....I would go Benji/Martin.

@bovidae Foran is lucky to be starting first grade, let alone a test

Is there any probable chance of Lino being thrust into the Kiwis reckoning? Would he switch allegiances?
Part of me, the Samoan side, wants him to just play for Samoa but then Samoa are piss poor so better off just playing for the Kiwis.
@raznomore Think Lino will stay with Toa Samoa which is better for rugby league anyway.
Luke has been ruled out of tomorrow's game. Karl Lawton to start and Sam Cook will probably come onto the bench.

@nepia If Lawton plays anything like he did last game then we should be ok.
The beach muscles boy wont have nearly as much influence as Isaac has this year - Blake Green is getting a lot of the plaudits but Luke has been the key to this team this year IMHO.

Green is getting deserved credit. As is Luke. Adam Blair has been keeping his nose clean of late which is good too

Dare we say it, the warriors have one of the best spines this year.

Well the old days are back - in two respects.
- The Warriors are making errors all over the place.
- The reffing is, how do we say, a bit iffy. Blake Green gets laid after a kick and it's play on, a few minutes later and Blake Ferguson gives a celebratory fist in the air for knocking the ball dead before the Warriors could score a try. Refs give the ball to Roosters and they eventually go in for a try down the other end.
Beach muscles and Tevaga have been average filling in for Luke.

Not tonight they don't. Not tonight.
