Interesting - I thought Deluise Hoefter was named at fullback.

Eh, it's NYC. Wouldn't read too much into it. This is where most people refine which position to play, either that or NSW Cup. That is, unless they are thrown into 1st Grade with another year or two left e.g. Sironen.
And it's not like they have a reserve grade to cover injuries, they have to make do a lotta the time.

Brad Soe's coming back from injury - wonder if he'll get a run? Looking foward to seeing Ritchie Ene come on. He's a 'beast'!

Payten will be livid with this loss as the Sharks are running last. Expect a few changes after the bye.

I'd expect so - sounds like they were a bit complacent.
Not a great start to the evening!
