You can’t spell Felise Kaufusi without the ‘F-U’. CNK the CENTRE! | League Of Our Own - S2 EP24

The NZ Warriors go into Round 23 knowing they could slide down the NRL ladder as far as SEVENTH if results go against them, but thankfully some of the cavalry returns for an all-important match against the Bulldogs.  Jacob Laban however may have played his final minutes of the season, fracturing his leg last week against the Dolphins.  Blairy & Goran talk about the role Felise Kaufusi played in this, and wonder how he’s only been banned for two matches?  Shouldn’t we expect much better from such a seasoned professional?!

We give credit where it’s due, handing out bouquets all over the place - one goes to NZ Warriors coach Andrew Webster for his team selection in Round 22.  It begs the question though:  why didn’t he shift Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad to centre previously?  Roger Tuivasa-Sheck picks up some flowers also - he ran for 335 metres against the Dolphins.  Is he shaping up as the NRL’s Dally M Winger of the Year…  and will he add another Simon Mannering Medal to his trophy cabinet at season’s end?  Or perhaps that gong will find a different home in the forward pack?

Meanwhile on the other wing, Dallin Watene-Zelezniak produced his best performance of the season in arguably a match he shouldn’t have been selected in.  He’s done enough to earn selection against the Dogs…  is the ‘noise’ beginning to quieten down around him?
