  4. A Nanva
  5. J Tago
  6. M Hunter
  7. D Hawkins
  8. Kalache

  12. B Cartwright
  13. R Matterson

  15. R Alterton

  17. I Mapu-Satiu

As you can see by the names on the list we have many injuries which has resulted many RM players in this team.

  • At fullback there is no Twiddle, Papaii or Martyn so Z Hunter is there as the 4th choice.
  • There is no AMS, Russel (in NRL for Lomax)  or Dunster (not sure what happened to Dunster again!!!) so Newlands played.
  • There is no Volkman so M Hunter is the 5/8. Chosen over Lynn.
  • In the forwards there is no Grieg, (suspended), Pryke (concussion), Lane (leave),Tuilagi (suspended), Doorey (in NRL for Tuivita), Keir, Lussick, T Brown (all injured)

So as you can see the list of unavailable players is massive. 15 Players !!!

    • HT 14-24

  • Latu forces an efforce from dogs in theri half. Hands goes crash play. Latu changes direction while catching it and burst through 2 tackles to score.

    • 20-24 after 50min

  • Mataele earns a penalty of the kick off. On the last eels go left. Hands pass to hunter is a shocker. On the floor and infront of him. Latu picks it up and kicks it. Goes into dogs legs. Nanva picks it up and offloads to Tago who scores. 24-24 after 53min. Eels have socred 1 extra but have not converted everything. Hawkins goaling kicking today since Papalii is not playing.

    • Thx for the updates mate

  • Dogs go right and score on the wing. The RM in eels really getting exposed.

    • Dogs score again. Eels have their RM players in the middle for the past 10mn as Hands and Matto are off the field and we gettign rolled in the ruck.

  • surprised we are even in this game comparing the team lists, is Latu having a good game?

    • Ye Latu had a good game. Only players I was really watching with interest were Mataele, Latu, Penisini and Matto. 

  • Eels get ball in dogs 20m for a few sets. After a strong run from Latu. Eels go left and Tago dives into the corner to score. 

    28-34 after 70min

Theres no rush like you say just keep rotating what's there and give him a go next year with another full off season under his belt."
