The Strapper's latest activity

Badel reckons Riki will have a fitness test in 24 hours to see if he can play and is still a chance. So I guess we will see Riki in 8 weeks.

Personally I'm not sure about carrying both Smoothy and Sailor on the bench. I would have slotted Sailor straight onto Mariner's wing spot and left Oates to practice his stints at second row, or Oates to wing, drop Sailor and play Te Kura. I do somewhat rate Sailor but I'd rather Kevvie not get this idea in his head that he must keep him in the side even at close to full strength just because the media keep on going on about him being deserving of a full time spot. I can't help but think...

Yeah basically agree with this. I haven't seen him play but have heard good reports about him. I don't think kevvie planned on debuting him this early but injuries to haas and willison have forced his hand a bit otherwise ideally he would have debuted during the origin period when we are usually down on troops. Also a bogey side like melbourne isn't ideal to debut against but you don't always have a choice in these things. I am no coach but I would imagine his instructions are to keep it...

I guess if anyone hit him high, they really have no excuse for getting suspended.

Classic add. Probably time someone came up with a new one about something using our current players.
