The Tahs will wear this jersey in their final home game against the Jaguares to recognise the strong connection the team has to the Pacific Islands.

When did Skelton break his arm?

We need to appoint an official "face-slapper". I wonder what Tommy Raudonikis is doing these days?

Why not?
He looked good in the NRC.
McDuling, McCauley and Toleafoa are all shithouse.

Staniforth has genuine potential. McDulling is a journeyman, bench prospect at best, Toleafoa looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane, haven't seen enough of McCauley to comment. Looks like Ned will be shifting back to lock.
By the way FP, why not Holloway to lock, I believe he has played a fair bit of club footy there?

Hollaway, plays more like David Lyons than Dan Vickerman
Playing lock means more than packing in the second row, it is playing tighter, cleaning out and tackling hard.
I think with Cron rolling in we have a double down on the kiwi focus on fitness, athleticism and workrate
It will be interesting to see who lifts and meets expectations and who plays more SS.
I see Holloway, Toleafoa and Dempsey as units who all need to do more of the essential forwards basics before they can be judged on their "extras"

It remains to be seen how much influence Cron will have first year, but I agree.
I must be the only person who doesn't think Toleafoa is completely shit (outside of whoever contracted him) but I think if he really embraced the inglorious TH lock role he'd go well.
Maybe his coaching will help make Dempsey a more well-rounded player?
He certainly needs to lift his workrate and tight game which is pretty sure what Cron doesn't like about his play.
As do a load of the Tahs pigs, he isn't alone there

FP - Gibson doesn't seem to have imposed the kiwi regime of fitness: or are the fades at he end of the game due to a dodgy bench?
They have, at times, been far better in the second half after dire starts
But yeah fitness and attitude must be improved

I'd reckon a season in Japan and head to Europe.
The guy is 28 so could potentially get another 5-7 years of decent cash.
Can return Australia when done with rugby.
