Now I know I'm going to annoy a few , but not one part of our spine will play a game together before Rd 1

That is madness , absolute madness

I find it a bit weird that Brooks is having wisdom teeth out this week. I'd be surprised if there is some sort of emergency, wisdom teeth are a long time coming, I would have expected him to get them done at the start of the preseason.

Also just trying to figure out which fringe players are not getting a look in here, which means not to expect to see them much / at all in 2017? Paseka, Tatola, Eisenhuth, Jordan Grant, Lolo.

Siro Jr Jr gets a run though.

Luke has had problems with his teeth since November… 3 are gone, one to come out next week.

It aint fun having 4 teeth out!

They have played monopoly, twister & boggle together after training, does that count?

How the HELL does Rankin get another run after last weeks abysmal performance? He was awful in the 9s too. Smh.

I don't get it. If he has trouble with his teeth he's had all summer to get it sorted. Takes no longer than a fortnight to get your wisdom teeth done, 2 at a time with a break in between, unless he has some vicious mouth disease or something.

For him to be missing a trial for this is quite disappointing, unless it's an issue which only arose in the last week or so in which case sure it's better to get it sorted now than during the season…

Looking at some of the snaps from training on the website today.. Naiqama seemed to be playing inside of Nofa and Looked like Simona was outside Idris on the left.

Would be great to see our left flank line up like that. If Kev can't get his D right then hopefully MCK gets a shot at right centre.

Maybe there was a tooth caught in his hammy, a training incident :unamused:

I had all 4 out at once. Will never forget it, it was horrible. But much prefer to just get it all over and done with.

I think we will now get a good indication tonight of the 2-5 in how they run out…

I did find it interesting last week that Idris played left when he came on for his stint when he is predominately a right side player...

I thought the same thing.

If Idris plays left centre, I hope Suli gets a chance at right centre.
Left wing will then have to be Simona (if still at the club) or Kev/Heleta
