@happy_tiger There are more ways to recruit than just digging out.the chequebook and signing mediocre has beens long term:
Bailey Simonssen - $1000 per week, was working on a building site;
Corey Horsburgh - Cowboys flicked him
Emre Guler - making kebabs
Jordan Rapana - cutting hair
Jack Wighton - brawling in the street in Orange
What do they all have in common? Came cheap to the same club, ALL in Australian or NZ jerseys next weekend. Gotta start thinking outside the box.

Nope. Recovering from surgery
Wests tigers website states:
“Michael Chee Kam and David Nofoaluma will feature as the only Wests Tigers players in the men’s tournament.”
But Robert Jennings was selected for Tonga. Did they just flat out forget him or shall we start a conspiracy theory that he has been released and no longer a wests tigers player?

Haven't Tonga been kicked out of the 9s?
Anyone else going to the 9s tonight? Just been given two free tickets. Assuming plenty more free tickets have been given out
Western Sydney aka League heartland represented well there. No players from Wests, Penrith or Canterbury. No surprises that no Warriors players were selected for Australia.

@WT2K I really don’t understand how Hunt gets selected and where he adds value in terms of the side that’s picked. Is Mal worried we are lacking in the brain explosion department? Otherwise both sides look good, should be a fun game to watch.

The Tongans just need a better spine. Particularly if they could find a half or two. Fairly solid elsewhere. That GB is a joke with the Aussies running around for them. Looking forward to watching Thompson again though.

No Aussies in their pack which is a really solid pack of forwards which I believe would give our forwards a run for their money. They lose out badly in the backs.
