Is Latham here or in Europe and is he injury free? Latho back at Ballymore sounds good to me.

Would love to see Crofty have a run also.

What standard are they aiming for, Full on or more a Golden Oldies style?

If I was a club like Parra or Penrith I'd be watching this game and making an offer to whoever looks impressive. Imagine the profile it would bring to the club.

EDIT: I obviously don't mean a monetary offer.

Giggity! I'd say the ABs will have the advantage in terms of youngish freshish bodies, it looks a very useful side.

I agree Mr Mouse. I heard Reubs on the radio talking to Marto, and he was very keen to play down his fitness and talk up the lack of training etc, but I bet the NZers will be massively keen to carve up the Aussies. I'm nervous that there will be no "shits and giggles" attitude from the Kiwis.....it's a trap, I tell ya!

Anyway, I'll be getting out there to Ballyhoo for the game, and if the great man TJ Horan only gets a few minutes, I'll be very upset.

Ouch, our couch playing for the All Blacks again. Some things are better left in the past. What Robbie would make is a bloody good celebrety referee for this game. The dingo bingo would be interesting when communicating with the players.

Latho is in Japan.

Ballymore will be going off tomorrow, with crowd numbers apparently already over 10,000 early this week. Not sure about the standard of footy that will be provided but it will be great to see all those legends back on the park. A night full of booze, nostalgia, and most importantly a night where the Qld public can raise significant dollars for the people of Christchurh.

Good on Marto and the organisers for getting this off the ground.
