A bit of Eagle shuffling in the backrow and backline. Love the name Champ-Descrisepnay. Can he play?

For the Rising they have benched big Isi and rotated their bench props.

Figgie Smalls back for the Eagles! Great to see!

I wonder if HJH (Harry Johnson-Holmes) is playing tight head because the Waratahs are thinking that he's more likely to work for them as a reserve THP behind Kepu next year and eventually taking over as the starter? He played THP in the under 20s and I think he is far more developed as a pro rugby player than Vui right now.

HJH (Harry Johnson-Holmes) does a huge amount of work in open play as well as being able to prop either side. Tahs need to start giving him more time. Not just the last few mins.

I agree. He only averaged 12.5 minutes per game in 2018. I think that will rise substantially in his second season and probably moreso as reserve THP where Kepu doesn't (and shouldn't) play as many minutes as Robertson.

Farcical shit here from NSW Country. Who the hell selects these squads? Two massively overrated Props who struggle to do the fundamentals of their positions and backs that cannot do simple catch and pass let alone anything a little more complex.
