Article up on rugby explorer… Carter Gordon is back. That’s a huge boost.

That’s massive for Wests , might unlock the outside backs .

 

[Confucius Say]

What about the referee in a Prem game a few years back who was heard over a "hot" mic at halftime making derogatory comments about a particular club and stating that he would be penalising their scrum out of the game in the second

What about him? Who hasn’t criticised a club scrum ?

 

[Confucius Say]

I am selecting West to win. They are going to be nervous so if they can hang in there for the first 20, I believe they can get the job done. Their pack will monster the University.

 

[Dark Shark]

I suspect there will be some late changes to both sides...

Cannot believe that Uelese is ahead of Dobbins.

At least the lineout should improve at the back end of the game . Get all the miss throws out of the way early.

So apparently with two props at lock Jooste ends up being the tallest player in the UQ run on side, maybe they'll slot him into the lineout to steal a few

I reckon they are looking to go hard at UQ scum early - destroy the scrum and hopefully get an early lead that's hard to run down on the back of scrum and forward dominance. If UQ scrum can hold up for first 25 minutes that could ultimately win the game for them ! UQ scrum & scrum coach (whoever that is?) .....no pressure

Massive addition with Tate McDermott added to the UQ bench

Surely you have to start him

Surely you have to start him

I would be for sure

Kalani was excellent last weekend, I don't think you need to reshuffle the start. Just bring Tate on in the second half to up the tempo and pace Wests out of the game.

 

[The Nomad]

Kalani was a lot better last week, but Tate is another level again on top of that. Much stronger in contact also which might be needed in clearing from set piece if the UQ scrum is struggling. If Tate’s available, you would be mad not to start him.

Any chance of a late ASY (Angus Scott-Young)/Vest inclusion? That would certainly square up the forward packs!

Chibba was running water last weekend , just saying ….

 

[Mug Punter]

Vest is not in the Auckland team for today, interesting

 

[Wilson]

Any chance of a late ASY (Angus Scott-Young) (Angus Scott-Young)/Vest inclusion? That would certainly square up the forward packs!

Angus Scott-Young is on the bench for Northampton at 11pm tonight, might be a bit too long a commute...

ASY (Angus Scott-Young) is in England....

Go the Tigers 5ths 4ths 3rds the getting up late in the game - fantastic stuff!
