Can’t believe he wouldn’t man up and play...Imagine Tallis or Webcke or any of another 100 hard men saying no I can’t play because he pulled up sore after having a few training sessions....
I've got no problem with it. He knows his own body and if he feels he's not ready so be it - especially for a nothing game. If it was a prelim final then I'm sure he'd play but the way things are going that's still a decade from happening

Am sure his team mates appreciate him having another weeks holiday while they get busted up..He is a front rower,play 20 minutes have 30 off...I must be a hard old bastard to think it’s wrong.I hope he gets a participation award...

The Rabbits are beatable, prepare like we did against the Dragons, remain composed, clinical and confident to worship possession.
End of set kicks needed work last week, are we missing Lewis's high ball to keep turning them around?

A dummy half who can kick into the corners would be a nice start.

They definitely are.....their mistake rate has been off the charts this year. In every game this year they've made between 15 and 20. If they can hold the ball though they are dangerous.

It's difficult to get excited about this game if I'm being honest. I have been enjoying seeing the ups and downs of Averillo's season and we don't even have that today.

Looking at the packs on paper you'd think both packs cancel each other out to some extent but it looked like that last week too and the Tigers monstered us.

I just hope our pack can hold their own to give Wakeham and Foran a chance to do something.

I can't see us winning and if the Bunnies click in attack it's going to get ugly.

Our pack were disgraceful last week v an under strength Tigers pack

I’m expecting we will get rolled through the middle third again with plodders like Napa and Tolman to get lions share of minutes with Britt

Renouf last 20 mins again most probably

Another bashing at the hands of Souths 20+ and that’s being generous.!!! And pay will still keep his job, it’s embarrassing for the club, they must be dreading game day.

Mitchell always has a good game v us
Cook will carve up the middle
Johnston will bag a double because our edge defence is a wingers dream (unmarked and untouched run to the line )

I am thinking, or more hoping and praying, our pack has decided to show off to our new recruit and just dominate.

Napsta and Toilman both on report for leveling Burgerless and Latrine in tackles that rival DWZ for hit of the year!

Wakenham to have our team on strings in a MOM performance to the chants of "the Prince is dead, long live the King"

Bring it!

Javvier??
Yeah possibly, Topine can play lock also. Just not a fan of starting heaps of young backrowers next year. Club has a few important decisions to make.
