Any news on how bad Sitili’s knee injury is? Just as well we have a bit of depth in the forwards as it’s starting to look a bit thin now.

[mattyh]

our bench absolutely murders their bench. come on chooks do the job.

[Thirteen]

Angus makes us a lot stronger.

[Kelby]

No cords, tossing the game?

[NorthChook]

No cords, tossing the game?

Still rested apparently - they say due to return round 3

Northy they probably won't play Canterbury Cup this weekend if reports about comp suspended until June are correct?

Yeah not sure - norths sent out an email today saying they would play this weekend behind closed doors but everything could change after they make their announcement

[Waylander]

Where’s Egan Butcher?

[NorthChook]

Where’s Egan Butcher?

I think he picked up an injury in the trial match

[Rooster_6]

Wonder how much can be read into Fifita being in the 18 jersey.

He was highly impressive in our one and only trial. Seems to have a higher ceiling than Poasa...

[NorthChook]

Also confirmed - no more NSW Cup or Jersey Flegg until at least 31 May

[Mickie Lane]

My favourite Rads had a shocker in rd 1 so did Manu, Teddy couldn't get into the game & Tupou was very average. I thought Flanno was a our best back after Ikavalu, Keary was okay. The forwards played good I thought except Rads so I'm not concerned about the forwards it's our backs that need to improve. We would have won last week end if Latrell was playing.

I feel Ikavalu really needs to be ready for those grubber kicks through behind him like the one that got through last week - he was prepared when Melbourne tried it against him early last year with the Foxx and he did well but still struggled with pace compared to other wingers/centres

Yes that's interesting. Maybe we are planning for Po's exit when JMoz bumps elbows with the bro.
