Well anyone thinking Josh Cook was going to start @ hooker can remove that thought now (assuming JMK isn't injured).
he was never starting, all the dicks on here saying cook to start havnt even seen him play. he may get a chance later in the year if he proves himself but he was never starting

I agree I’m gonna have to talk myself into him when he comes but I have never been a fan
I thought we needed another prop, especially if Vaughan doesn't work out (if he does then we're stacked on the edges), but if we play TPJ in the middle we do need another second rower and looking at our 23 roster I'm not sure where else we need to strengthen if we're trying to fit all our young players/talent in the roster.

Interesting to hear him say Wakeham’s name first when talking halfbacks

I just hope he has learnt something last year and when something doesn’t work out. Repeating week after week won’t fix the problem.

As long as his favourite players like Waddell & co. Don’t see first grade he could be on the right track as a coach.

I don’t like Thompson’s chances of being here in 23, if that’s the case we’ll have Vaughan (if he’s resigned) in the twilight of his career and have to move Pangai to the middle with Patolo , I just don’t think 800k on Kikau is smart money

TPJ on the edge is interesting. Would've been better at prop.

Hopefully wakeham starts, sounds like he will.. be great to see how he goes and show what he’s learnt during the off season.!!
