Kenty is such a spoon. Talking nonsense again. Had zero evidence to suggest the Warriors did anything underhanded. The situation is exactly the same as when Walsh left the Warriors, where the club asks why you want to leave and gives you the release on the proviso you move to the place you requested. It's not as if JFH was exactly flush with options when he got his release on compassionate grounds to move to NZ. Honestly, a bowl of muesli has more fibre than Kent.
Kenty is right as always he if you muppets can’t put 2 + 2 together then there’s not many brain cells in that head of yours they were clearly talking to him before Sunday takes more then 2 days to decide your future . But to Kents point all clubs do it
As a panthers fan I wish big fish nothing but the best, he has done everything at the foot of the mountains what else is there to do, Good luck brother you are forever a panther💪❤️
How does Paul Kent even know that the Warriors convinced JFH to leave? He’s supposed to be a journo but he just pulls shite from his arse and tries to pass it as reality
The reality is Kent, Buzz and every other "journalist" on shows like this are all relics of the past. Everyone now watches podcasts done by ex-players because they actually know what they're talking about. The information is what it is. All Kent is doing is his usual angry ant routine
@@BrykuIRL I mean you can be a plastic fan if you want. I'm not saying take it super seriously but I'd never say I want another team to win. If Knights didn't make the finals and Warriors did, different story because your team is out. You may as well say Knights are your team but you want Warriors to beat them whenever they play.
In response to Kenty I guess the difference is when an Aussie asks to go back home on compassionate grounds there is 16 clubs that player could go to however in JFH situation coming home there is only one club to go to
Kenty, give yourself a frigging uppercut dude! I'm sure the integrity unit would of been involved if there was something dodgy going on. It was amicable. The guy gave most of his athletic life to the club and was a part of the 3 peat premierships that penrith won, so of course they could only thank him for his services and for being selfless all those years. Ivan also has a soft spot for the Warriors being a former player and coach for them himself and is very good friends with Webby, so that'd have to help as well. JFH is an extremely proud Māori and I've heard previously that he wanted his kids to grow up amongst the people and culture, so maybe he's hoped that a good opportunity would arise from the Warriors for a while and it was only a matter of time.
After all the years of disappointment and lackluster results things are finally changing for the Warriors. Up the mighty Wahs ❤️💙💚 2024/2025 Our years ☝️💯
How many players since COVID left the Warriors (including AFB for compassion grounds) yet one comes this way and it’s a real issue….. cool your Jets Kenty
Very pleased JFH is returning home and of the position that the Panthers Managements decision for the transfer with no conditions is a sign of respect to JFH's service, committment, and enormous contribution to the Panthers club. All that being said equal thanks and respect to the Panthers management for their decision to grant the transfer with no conditions for the 3xs NRL Champion, World Cup Winner, and Golden Boot recipient.
I reckon Nathan will be a one club player, the warriors tried to poach Jett Cleary and he knocked them back because he wants to stay with his family at Penrith.
It’s a massive signing for the Warriors for 2025 onwards but it will mainly make the other Warriors’ front rowers do all they can to fight to retain their spots in the first grade line-up.
@@richie9508 … When he’s playing at his best, Fonua-Blake is an awesome sight to watch & I for one wouldn’t be game enough (or dumb enough) to get in his way to try & stop him. Fisher-Harris will absolutely add more grunt & firepower to the Warriors pack. Their coach will be spoiled for choice from next year 👍😁
@@mastermao007… The old HTFU (harden the f**k up) approach huh???… I LIKE IT & agree 100% 🫵😁👍. Nothing would make a player fight harder for their spots in first grade than having their club sign a very successful player & a big name player at that ☝️😄
His a Panthers junior and put his time inn deserves what ever he wants Penrith know that his always done right by Penrith only right they do right by him ,all the best to him and his family , Penrith have the best junior s they'll be right
Huge respect to the Panthers for letting him walk with no strings attached given it was compassionate. The Dragons need to take a leaf out of their book with how they treated Ben Hunt
panthers grants an release for him he signed an 4 years deal to play for the warriors and also wanted to come home to aotearoa new Zealand, to his family and friends
Two totally different scenarios. One club has won 3 premierships in a row and maybe a 4th and the other club hasn’t won in ages. Saints weren’t going to be bullied whereas Penrith and James were amicable, so don’t put Saints in this boat
A bit of common sense Kent… he is obviously moving back for family reasons… not for more money.. that’s the difference between a normal “get out of contract early” situation…
Wahs have a good recent history of letting players n coaches leave contracts- Nathan Brown, Walsh, AFB, Curran too? On the Panthers for letting him head home - he's served them well
i really applaud all you panther supporters for being so humble and appreciative of what JFH has bought your team , Im a hard warriors supporter but if our boys werent playing , I would support the panthers not because you were always winning but because of Ivan Cleary , was probably one of the biggest mistakes the warriors board made letting him go ,one love panthers and good luck for the season , chur 🤙🤙
Warriors fan here, I just want to say thank you to Penrith for leasing Fish. Speaks volumes of the club. Of course a thanks to Fish for wanting to come back home. We welcome you with open arms next year. But for 2024, we gonna go hard with our current roster and show respect to Addin who has been killing it for us for so long.
Hooper didn't say it but alluded to it: player signings. The Warriors have been awful with contracts, in the past, but seem to have turned a corner, over the last couple of years. Success will do that.
Great news for the Warriors after losing AFB. But please give definition in this instance and for future "compassionate grounds" This article said "he's good mates with Stacey Jones" & he'd like to raise his kids and family in NZ... Not "JFH has an ill family member, elderly parents that needs help etc etc" Just say all parties have mutually agree'd for an early release and job done but clearly its just the players desire to relocate enough said.
If the panthers had known this was coming they would have gone after Terrell May before the sombrero squad snapped him up. It is on compassionate grounds, it is family related, Fish wants to go home and the panthers did the right thing by thanking a loyal player and letting him go with no hassles. The panthers grow their own, see what happens.
Shout out to the Panthers for rewarding Fisher for his loyalty and hard work. Watch the video of JFH's struggles in life and you'll understand why he is homesick. His heart is bigger than his body.
@@dub_h7900 lol stupid comment, he does more tackles, runs more meters and scores TRYs! Why wouldn’t you want a forward scoring TRYs on top of what helps normal duties are.
Gotta feel sorry for Braith Anasta. Ex players are doing podcasts that are 10x better footy shows and here he is stuck with flips like Kent, Buzz and Hoops. Whatever Fox is paying him it isn't enough
That's true. Say what you want, but JFH is on the weaker side of the modern props. Gets bumped off a lot and not as physical as his partner Leota. He has an engine I'll give him that.
Mate his strength is off the ball, he lifted the kiwi pack, creates that intimidation.hes also a mentor for young kiwi props look what he’s done with Leo Thompson. Can’t stand it when none league heads make statements over “one bump”
@@moscar_Fisher Harris is what the Warriors need he's a real leader and will know doubt lift the Warriors to a premiership, he's got heart and a big engine that's what the Warriors have been lacking for years
I reckon this was a very good move by Webster (Warriors Coach). Because, Addin Fonua Blake is leaving Warriors to join Sharks next year in 2025, so James Fisher Harris will easily be used to fill up the gap. Also, for them to be 2025 comp favourites? Maybe? But remember, Shaun Johnson is 33 and could be very well retiring next season or later on and will need someone to step up in the role. But love the talk.
@HatersNeverProsper I said maybe. I definitely agree that he is in his prime and one of the best playmakers in the comp 💯. He's got at least 3 years in him I reckon. If he's really good, 4.
Kent has lost the plot completely to the point of looking stupid. Warriors did not "talk JFH" into leaving Panthers it was JFH's heart felt decision to bring his kids back home to immerse them in his Maori culture.
Who wins the premiership each year all depends on the betting agency who sponsors the club, if you notice EVERY club has one, and they are all owned by Crown betting, each and every one, go look it up, I did. When we free the game of gambling, the game will again be honest. So who won the Premierships for the past 20 year.... Crown's board members did... in their pockets.
They said RTS coming back was a huge signing, so was Capewell, AFB before that, Shaun Johnson coming back before that, Isaac Luke before that, RTS the first time, and Sam Tomkins before that...Warriors could sign Nathan Cleary and will still find a way to underperform, the hype needs to chill 😂😂

Pretty sure the warriors have the most players leave under compassionate grounds. Kenty speaks up when we get one back
He's been throwing hands with sheilas
Good for the game and speaks volumes for what Andew Webster's doing.
It's not soccer mate, the coach doesn't sign the players
He wants to go back to his family. That's not Webster's doing. Just works out for him and the warriors...
Webster and cappy are the reason why he came home 100 percent.Webster has created a movement in Nz never seen before.

So you don't really go for the Knights then.
@@mhjyuti why wouldn’t I still go for the knights by wanting the wahs to win a premiership aswell?

When SJ retires, Nathan Cleary will take over, and Ivan will come back to Warriors as director of the football department!

How often is everyone surprised by a big signing? Highlights how good the warriors organisation is not allowing the news to leak
One player won't win a title, but I'm hoping that this signals the return to the Warriors of more world class players.
At least things appear to be heading in the right direction
He's the perfect guy to help turn our young forwards into world class players
Add that ONE PLAYER (JFH) to a already performing WARRIORS pack adds a higher chance to winning the premiership. Thats if they don't win it in 2024.
Paul Kent is unreal, where was this chat when we lost AFB the same way?
Good luck to fish and every one of us penrith fans are greatful to have got him for as long as we did ❤️💚🖤💛
Yeah thanks Penrith from a warriors fan!
Wahs have a good recent history of letting players n coaches leave contracts- Nathan Brown, Walsh, AFB, Curran too?
On the Panthers for letting him head home - he's served them well
Could add Kodi Nikorima, Euan Aitken, Matt Lodge, Eliesa Katoa, Daejarn Asi and Ronald Volkman to that, plus a few young guns.

@AndrewinAus True. But in my opinion, ADF is slight better than JFH. But, great decision and move by the coach Andrew Webster.
On the low, I think the panthers see he's on the back 9. Rarely winning first contact these days.
💯 rules / regulations/ contracts out of the doors bunch of bullshit
Feel the same way about Walsh, Aitken, and Fonua Blake?
Noone talking about how we let AFB leave on the same clause. Cmtfu, cause it's the warriors, it's a issue
Need dome more talent in the halves, I can't see how they going to do it without Johnson
Pretty sure his pop died a few months ago and his mum and fams are struggling with the loss so thats why hes heading home.Fish luvs penrith

Warriors did not "talk JFH" into leaving Panthers it was JFH's heart felt decision to bring his kids back home to immerse them in his Maori culture.
Moses lioto is the best front rower in the comp hands down and im not a panthers supporter! Very underated in my books just sayin!
Leota
What’s funny we’ve let a lot of panther players go and where still winning… No effect up the the panthers

It’s hard for Aussies to understand how big league is getting in NZ the warriors sell out almost every game and Rigby is dying a slow death 👌🏿
Someone get the shite Kent prick off the airwaves and behind bars where he belongs. He's a disgrace.
Rules in place hey Kenty, like beating your Mrs and getting away with it.
No chance of the warriors winning the comp in 2025.😮😮
The poor Kent be choking himself these days the way he slurs he’s words.
I get what Kent means though.
He wanted to go home to NZ - asked for a release and signed with the warriors as the warriors are the only NZ team. Case closed
Yeah, just like the Canterbury Bankstown Panthers are favourites this year! LOL
Kenty ya salty 😂
That Kenty blokes got a phd in whingeyology
Maybe he thinks that Sydney etc. is getting too dangerous to raise his kids. I dunno... seems things getting a bit hairy over there.
He wouldn't have gone anywhere else
Get off your high horse Kent ;) been happening to the warriors for years
Fire Kenty again please
i honesty think Addin Fonua-Blake is lazy.

I’d have Blake over Harris any day. Don’t think it’s an upgrade.
You're a nutjob then.Nothing against blake but the difference between him and fish is almost as big as a reserve grade player to a first grade player
Maybe, but of all available options this is probably the best
Oh, it's an upgrade, how many premiership rings has Blake got?
It's definitely on par I would say Fisher Harris knows how to play the big games so it's an upgrade
