I’ve been trying to work out who will be “late” back to pre season training after the rep games. Samoa - Luai, May1and 2, Skelton, Hunt (perhaps) Tonga -Fainu 1,2 and 3 ( perhaps), Toa NZ - Pole ( perhaps) Happy for any likely additions but it seems our pre season will be interrupted again ...

Congrats to the ladies ! Why haven’t you listed their tips for this weekend ???

That’s interesting B2T, , especially as Nugget was a confirmed bachelor. Mmmm…..

Here we go again, give him a chance and whilst he’s played well, he suddenly produces a gun to hold at our heads ! I’d come back with $650k x 2 years, take it or leave it ! And our centre problems continue !

My tips are; Storm Panthers Sharks Broncos

Don’t hold your breath !

Part of it but not all. Forwards going forward and allowing backs to play off them is a huge start !

Of course, I forgot the Kiwis, thanks H. Not too shabby a record is it ?

Pretty simple, hard running/ tackling, draw and pass, backing up, speed and happy attitude. Not rocket science S.

Whilst I don’t disagree I don’t think our Island boys would warm to him, which is why API and Luai share the job. AD will just need to lead the way in his playing style.

I do not think his new contract is as a back up option so is going to keep being selected !

I think if you ignore Benjis playing career and assess him a little more currently there’s not a lot to get you excited about ! Madge certainly has a solid resume across a variety of teams so he’s not completely useless ! Wigan, Souths, NSW, Broncos - not bad.

Maybe this is what Spurs need, obviously the Board thought so ! Interesting to see if anything changes ?

That’s his strategy for keeping the players inside. And it’s probably right, praise in public , chastise in private, except from what I hear he still wants to be one of the boys. Maybe that’s the Polynesian way ? We can’t ask Sticky, Madge, Bellyache, Ciraldo, Ivan, Fitzy or Trent coz none of...

Very good point D.

Said he’s trained them hard, so that’s on him, and it showed tonight. Sorry but don’t buy it, but he’s proud of them for blowing a good lead, not scoring a point in the second half, and losing again just like v Cowboys, Raiders etc etc etc. We have NO killer instinct !

I wonder if Ciraldo is considering Sexton and Burton as halves next week, and starting with Mahoney. Back to the future coz Hayward and Galvin both mediocre ? Just a thought !

Ok, here’s my curve ball for comment. Was Madden signed coz Benji has been quietly advised that Luai may, and I said may, activate his exit clause ? Otherwise it’s a very strange decision ( for both parties ).

No one nominated Hunt for a 2+ tryscoring effort, wonder what odds that was ?

Now that is great teaching, making it almost a live text book. Bravo Veronica, I bet everyone in the class was fully attentive.
