  • Fresh Prince will go ok .
  • Interesting that Hoffman wasn't even kept on the extended bench

    Was thinking it might have been a case like last week when rge first team had Gower in for Moeroa only for Frank to play.

    Guess Hoffman is still having problems with his knee



    In saying that Jada Pinkett will go great
  • Hoffman is definitely ready, training without any strapping. I think it's just a case of match fitness and he may get half a game at wentworthville
  • Actually I preferred Will Smith over Hoffman and I think Smith will more than hold his own at Fullback.
  • Hancock will go ok.
    • Keep your afterhours activitys to yourself .
    • Nah Bagger Vance will be better suited
  • I think we'll find Norman defending at fullback, and attacking as a half. Smith has played 5/8 in the past also...
    • Don't think so, Smith has played fullback before and has more speed than Norman, is a good defender and can read the game well.
  • Interesting decision. Either Hoffman hasn't fully recovered or lack match fitness or BA planning to use Smith in the halves and have Norman switch to fullback during the game. Personally I hope he doesn't move Norman to fullback because we need him and Mosses to continue working on their combination.

In our well-justified praise of Ryley Smith, there is a big thing being missed: his ability to read the game and footy IQ.
He is a couple of plays ahead and anticipating every move both in defence, primarily at present, but also in setting up the…
