I think Papali'i will enjoy being in the middle. He has been quite physical this year and I believe he will like playing less minutes too. I expect him and Bateman to improve a lot this week.
Toa back in the centres is odd. I would have thought the next move for him may have been left wing...
I would be starting Matamua this week.
IMO our halves will desperately need a middle player that can condense the middle and free them up. Matamua is the best we have at this. He has been working really hard in KOE cup this year. Isn't setting the world on fire but he is in a terrible team...
I think this is it. My hatred for the NRL is at such a level my brain is fried. For gods sake I have Winston agreeing with me. I need to reassess my life. 😪
I could easily walk away from Rugby League and never look back. What makes it hard is the wife and kids watch it, so I'm letting them down by brushing this pathetically run game.
I will definitely give myself a break next week being a 3pm game, I've told the missus that already, but the night...
IMO Seyfarth should be a fine. It was a gentle "be careful" warning to Mahoney rather then a headbutt.
Sezer no case to answer. The was zero illegal contact in what he did. Not a hip drop.
Naden may get a week for a light crusher. Very light though, so maybe he won't.
Klemmer nothing.
I'm in total disagreement regarding our attack I'm afraid. I think Bateman in the middle is really making life tough for our halves. His link play is shocking. It's so slow, predictable and his passes are clunky, often landing slightly behind the target rather then in front so the player can run...
