So Moses Suli is going over now it appears. That makes things a little more interesting.

Where did you see this?

Telegraph…

Suli would have been tempted to join the Bulldogs himself, having grown up as a Canterbury supporter, however, the gun centre opted to stay put and will be rewarded with an Auckland Nines spot despite not being named in the original Tigers line-up for the pre-season event.

The tournament will give fans the first chance to see what all the fuss is about.

**There's a name from our past that I haven't heard about for a while**

Didn't know Mark Nicholls played RL . I'm surprised channel 9 would let him go and play in the 9s with his health issues. Then again they did give Freddy Fittler a go when he was over 40, so why not give Mark Nicholls a go.

On paper it is the strongest team and it looks like the donkeys are desperate to win something to bring a smile to the cadavers face.

I guess we think the 9's is a fowarfs game with a few halves. No outside backs required.

I hope we don't play Parra if Radradra is playing. The scoreboard will short circuit before half time :laughing:

Old Uncle Leroy has a lot on his plate this weekend as he is a bit of petrol head as well, with the old home town going to be 38-42 degrees this weekend I think I'll spend a bit of time inside, Farmers Market meh,
Motorcycle Show (free entry) only if I can get up early.
Then there's a swap meet at the Venerable Showground on the Sunday, spending the time in front of the Tele or getting out and about, all comes down to how a tight arse spends the $$$.
BTW there's one of the greatest motor racing events ever held just up the road, spoilt for choice.
 
We've swapped 2 back rowers for 2 centers and the squad looks much stronger for it.

I actually think Rankin will carve up and be our best player. He does have very good footwork when he's given space.

Should be a good chance of making it out of the pool now.
