Was very lucky to grow up in Ulladulla, although it’s changed since I left.

Well with Fifita no longer an option they’ll re-sign Angus easily now. Didn’t think he was gonna leave anyway but this had made it easier for them.

I don’t deny Naden had a shocker, but I couldn’t trust Faataape to come in and do a better job in his place. The only person unless you’re willing to count Bateman in this case that could’ve pushed him aside are both out injured which ended up saving him.

He did but he’s not going that well in Cup either. Was ok in the recent game against the Knights but hasn’t been killing it there.

Watched it live. He just didn’t stand out.

Well you know my opinion and couple of others already have basically said the same thing. If he was playing better I’m sure Faataape would’ve been named this week.

Maybe ask that in the cup thread and see if anyone agrees with you that he should’ve been named?

He’s not playing better for selection.

Have to try at least. Just hope they do as well.

Like I said no one better to replace him with. The one person maybe two if you’re willing to count Bateman who could’ve taken his spot are both out injured.

You’re probably right because he’s not better than what we currently have, or is playing like he wants back in the first grade side.

He might not be retained after this year, but they won’t let him go either. He’ll be here for the year at least.

When you don’t have better you can’t drop unless you absolutely had no choice. In the case of our centre depth we don’t.

To be fair we lifted because of what happened the last time we played the Cowboys before that night, but everyone played brilliant that night. Even Brooks.

What’s the figure got to do with it? He’s still getting paid all year despite not playing first grade.

Well when he’s not playing better he ain’t gonna get called up. An ok performance doesn’t warrant a first grade call up. Especially against a backline that the Dolphins have named this week. Naden had a shocker but Faataape currently ain’t playing better than him either.

Well he’s still got a contract so he’s gotta oblige by it.

Good luck Api for his 200th, hopefully he and the boys can get the win for the milestone.

No it isn’t. If To’a didn’t get injured there’s a very strong possibility he and Olam would have been the Centres this week, but him getting injured threw that out the window.

If a player does get dropped you have to be sure the one to take that spot will step up. It’s clear Benji didn’t think Faatappe was capable of being better and I understand where he’s coming from.
