Saw a post of his on twitter that said he was expected back from injury in October.

Anyone know if Pama Fou is likely to feature this season. I'm interested to see how he goes. Watching footage of him on YouTube he looks pretty quick. Got on the outside of Perry Baker which consodering Baker is express that's quite encouraging.

No.

I'd imagine that would be the case. The Mitre 10 Cup is provided to them at what you'd imagine would be minimal cost while they have to pay for the broadcast of the NRC. But still at least we now have two live broadcast games and the streams. Progress. Hopefully in the not too distant future...

Anyway, on to my thoughts on the players that stood out. I thought Simone was solid again woth plenty of involvements. I notice Meekes was on him all night. But still had a number of good involvements. Wildeman was probably my pick of the Rays backs. He's in a rich vein of form at present...

It's going to take a game or two for him to get back in the swing of things. He was rusty and feeling his way back into the 15 man game.

True. But even then they hit their straps a lot sooner than the Spirit which helped a lot.

Rays emerge victorious. Came out in the 2nd half with greater energy and never really looked in danger of losing it. Much better overall game to watch in the 2nd half as well.

6-8 to the Spirit.

The weather isn't conducive to making this a free flowing affair. Not that it has stopped either side from trying.

Looks like it will be streamed.

Absolutely. Could be huge games for the Rams as well with what I understand is the largest Fijian community outside of Fiji residing in Western Sydney. I think they'll be a wonderful addition to the competition and if they prove successful I'd like to see the possibility of a Samoan squad added...

So, revert back to S12? Pretty sure that was run and done in a 13-14 week time frame. I suppose if you were to look toward doing something like the conference system actually makes the most sense. Move the Sunwolves into our conference, tbe Jaguares into the NZ and keep the SA conference as is...

That's a fair enough assessment.

HA!!! My info was good. A poster on the t2 forum posted about this about 6 weeks ago. Also memtioned the FRFU being behind a push for a combined Island team to be based out of Auckland and playing games in the Islands.

Seemed a little overcome may be even overly nervous with the increased tempo and physicality. Perhaps trying a little too hard to find some rythmn at times. There were glimpses of the player we saw this season in the SS but a bit inconsistent. Hopefully with his first game under his belt he...

They deserved their win. Were more clinical in their scoring opportunities. They play an attractive style very similar to that of Norths in the SS. I personally think once they build a bit of cohesion among the team and those who were not part of the Norths program this year become comfortable...

The score is actually a little deceptive. For much of the game the Rams controlled the play and if not for the likes of Will Miller manageing to pilfer at just the right time on several occasions it could have easily been a Rams win. Not that the Rays didn't perform well. They did. Look very...

Just looked it up. Cheers.
