What an incredibly depressing thought.

Higginbum has always had a lot of potential.........

Let's see how they go when they give Genia a couple of games off. As they should.

The derbies draw the biggest crowds because they attract two sets of supporters. No?

Trying to lull us into a false sense of superiority, eh? I smell an ambush.

Let's hope we see Higginbum playing like a real 8, not like a would-be winger. Up the guts, where the going is tough, not dancing around out on the fringes.

I would guess that throwing well is a matter of confidence (assuming that a player at this level has the basics right). I wonder whether the Wobbs have access to a good sports psychologist?

It all makes perfect sense. Sadly.

I was a bit surprised, frankly. Biting is about as low as it goes.

I would like to get Ponga, that is for sure.

Not necessarily. Kalyn Ponga = Exhibit 1. If he plays our game, it will not be in our jersey. Who can blame him?

Harv, the elitist roots are about the only roots we have got these days. The time to do something about them was probably 110 years ago, when the game should have gone professional, but chose not to. We are a minority sport now, and for the life of me I cannot see how that situation is going...

The Saders were a class above, unfortunately. Then again, they are a class above most of the teams in the comp, frankly. I was impressed with Higginbum's attitude when he came on. Oh, if only we could turn the clock back, and if only he had played with this sort of intent way back then. I...

15 against 14 would have been a lot fairer, though. From the kickoff.

Lots of Kiwis in SE Qld.

A lot will depend on whether the Sunwolves have their Test squad players back. Maybe I am wrong, but I reckon that the second-stringers are actually a more potent combination. Hungry, and committed.

Aberdeen seems to be more orientated towards rugby, from what I gleaned. Mongkok, on the other hand, is pretty much soccer, soccer, soccer, innit? Maybe there are scheduling issues, contention with the other code.

I am a bit out of touch (as you have suggested) but why would Mongkok be a better alternative? I would not know either way, in my time these sorts of games would have been either at Happy Valley or the Government Stadium.

Thanks, Dave. I do try to be positive, and I am a financial member of my club, even though we live a long way away now. Go the Marlins, and go the Woodies.

Maybe the presence of BB is the reason for giving Valetini a rest. The back row will need to be everywhere in D, speed will be of the essence.
