Just to make the prospect of this game even more exciting, is any one champing at the bit to see how Kearney is going to use his forwards and the possibility of a wide-running Fuifui Moimoi.
I think Fuifui outwide, could do similar for us as what D

Strikes me that it would be strange for him to shift sides and that we actually see him on the right this weekend. I think that move would

Basically Muttman and a few others - and correct me if I'm wrong - are saying that our style of play is now too conservative. We've been skirting around it in relation to other blogs, I thought it best
Read more…The only thing I know about 2011 so far is that Taniela Lasalo has been our best player week-in, week-out. Let's keep in mind this is only his second season as a second rower, so he's only going to get better. At the start of the season, I saw Taniel

It’s been a problem for Parramatta since the season k
In all seriousness, if the match ended at half-time, what would your reaction be. We had the better of that half - we got over the line four times. One of the tries we conceded resulted from an absolutely freakish pass that was impossible to defend a
