Good stuff. More than likely De Gois will be starting hooker come round 1.
Gennings, Faraimo and Auva'a all healthy.
Always keep Corey Norman in ice!!
Come on slip, get with the picture. He has left the casino.
I was thinking we are doing really well this year? Only 1 player beyond round 1?
Corey Norman has strained his tongue apparently, completely torn the little bridge underneath..
A bit of VB will fix that
is it a gash?
