Injured at present.

I know, aren't we lucky a reserve bench can only be so big, there will be no room left after Ryan & Skelton take their seat.

I think the top 3 have the team to beat Uni on their day. Manly's forward pack if all on deck; Tim Fairbrother, Pat Leafa, Eddie Aholelei, Caydren Neville, Ed Gower, Luke Jones, Jordy Ried, Dan Alley, (hope!! Kotoni Ale and Wycliffe Palu get back and can start).

Yes, they need to be matched up front. Uni's backs need to be contained, and then the game plan to score more points than they do. The game plan. Then when Uni feels the pressure on the score board and they revert to field position and rolling maul the opposition requires the fitness and depth...

Scoreline surprised me, I thought Souths forward pack would have dominated and layed the platform for the backs. Haven't watched the game yet and am keen to see how it flowed. Hoping all teams hit the finals with full compliment of players, the team that knocks over Uni will need to be patient...

George Smith had another great game, he'd be my first Wallaby picked if eligible.

Well yes doing well.

Hooper 7 / Reid 6 / cant wait to see Luke Jones back as well. Throw in Caydren as well.

Yep, very timely with Kotoni hurting his ankle last week

Coach, you just raised a point and I thought you were going to take it a different direction. Islanders. What about getting rid of the Emu's as they are not competing - or attracting talent. And then replacing it with a Pacific Island team in a similar geographic area - Players may change clubs...

Yep

Des, Uni does have something that other clubs can not offer. I don't hold that against them, and if they make use of their resources and sets examples good on them. Other clubs are emulating what Uni has done with varying approaches. But we can still all hate Uni, it's called tribalism. Penrith...

Great idea, as often the free kick reverts to a scrum anyway.

Yep no doubt, and at times it can simply come down to game management.

Scrums are great, battle, technique, and its part of the history of our game. Keep them. Ruling's, Interpretations of scrums by lanky refs wearing bifocals who have NFI really gives me the shits. I asked a quality World Cup ref once, do you really know what happens in scrums. We notice...

True, True,

What's soccer

Des, I know your post was a positive idea and I hate being negative on it however I'd have some concerns as per below, So another form of recruitment is it, quality stays, rest return to the west? I don't have answers, but a different thought you have put forward. Along way to travel, cost...

Go back to Walker, Roff, Burke I think it was - they played a unit not as individuals.
