Nrl website is strange
Team list shows Izzac Tuitupou as our new winger but the match preview says its former Rabbitohs winger Izzac Thompson who has scored 12 tries in 18 games in CUP as our new winger
WHATS GOING ON ?

Same guy, different name. He seems to have dropped the Thompson bit.

Staines dropped? Poor bastard. Had a shocker

Benji got the timing perfect iwith Taylan …hoping similar for Izaac..

Was really hoping Bula and Sam F back this week … 👎

I was too, but not named in the 21.

Tu'itupou Was shocking under the high ball last time I watched him play, hopefully he’s much better because there’s a lot to like about his game otherwise

I don’t get why the club has so many backs with this issue over the years …it’s almost like they have recruited for it …

They all catch good at training apparently 😂

2 things would be my main focus this week with this team....

1. Ball handling - When this is on point, we seem to be right in the games.

2. More straight running - Pretty simple as we need to win the game through the middle and draw players in.

Apart from the injuries it's a pretty solid team.

Fingers crossed
