Will be interesting to see who gets called up to play hooker alongside Halatau next week. You'd have to think Cherry as he's got the match fitness. But Ballin could play 30-40 off the bench maybe?
Anyone at the game see how gassed he was at the end of the match?
apparently Ballin played about 50 mins but spent some of that time at lock (including when he scored the try). seems weird to me so who knows how he'll be used.
He's a seasoned campaigner and would have been playing the week after next anyways. And all probably depends on whether cherrington is moving clubs I suppose. And I'm not a fan of Halatua in the 9 jersey. Think wed be better off giving Littlejohn some time in top grade even if its off the bench as backup hooker.
