or not - Endeavour won't host! They're trying to work out alternative venue. This could be embarrassing.

damn, was looking forward to it.

I do understand re the weather tho, out place is so damned waterlogged. Lucky I got the driveway done just before this wet spell, there is no way in hell we would have been able to get out.

Im hearing that Tetera Falkner is a late change for Nick McLennan. No official word yet though.

It'll be a shame if they drop Vui next week to make room for him, he's a bloke that took a massive punt to go west.

Is Vui signed already for 2017?

Game to be held at Concord Oval at 1pm

Are we going to get double TV games?

unlikely, the programming would already be fixed wouldn't it?

 

[Pfitzy]

BOOYAH! GET THERE MOFOS!!!

 

[Forcefield]

Spirits chances have to be boosted with Latu joining the Wallabies.

Endeavour Oval is the worst wet weather ground in our region, if not the state. That said, the amount of rain that we've had is unprecedented and with Emus hosting the grand finals last weekend this game was always going to be in trouble.

Disappointed though, I was on the Elders gravy train for a road trip over for this one. Will now be having a run in Golden Oldies instead!

Correction: Heath Tessman in for McLennan. No confirmation yet.

502 has a NZ game and a replay on my set in SA. Given that the match is a double-header, it would have been a no-brainer to televise both games. But it seems nobody thought of it.

Eagles open the scoring 8-0

 

[Lindommer]

Foxtel fella told me the schedule was already set, hence no early match. Beautiful sunny day, loads of cuzzy bros. Jock can do the score updates.

 

[GunnerDownUnder]

Robinson scores and its 16-0 both tries have come with eagles down to 14
