  Good to see Tui K getting a run back in NYC. I have seen him named in RM cup a few times.

    Rather him play in the RM cup. He has a big motor but that's pretty much it.

  Good to see Tui Oloapu from our SG Ball get a run and for the second week we've gone with that option over a few other players. I would have liked to have seen Tyrell keep a spot in the 17, possible on the bench. That bench gives me no confidence at all. The only saving graces in this team are Makelim, Oloapu, Davis, Lavaka, ZDC, Lussick, TTS, and Markus.

    I would hazard a guess that Tyrell was pulled due to State duties.

    Good to see Oloapu get a run. 
    Been some time since I've seen him play, so looking forward to seeing how he handles the step up to first-grade.

  Of course, disregard that part of my comment. Completely forgot about that.

  They could still leave themselves short for this one even against the team coming last. We saw against cronulla, a team coming second last that a few players makes a huge difference and we still had Goodall, Moeroa and Aloiai for that game and lost.

    We beat the Sharks 38-34. We've only lost 3 games this year, 2x Roosters, 1x Panthers.

  My mistake. We scored in the last minute to beat the second last team. Then lost to the panthers who we had previously beaten quite well. Point is a few players out can mean the teams coming first and last are quite even. And we have gutted the team this week.

    I'm okay with the "gutting" of the team though. We are producing first grade players, not NYC premierships. Whilst I don't agree with some of the players in the team I still think we have a very strong backline even without Goodall. We've got one of our better hookers back in Joey Lussick. I think we can scrape away with a win in this game and I'm happy to see that as long as we're promoting the top players for their efforts.
