I'm in 2 minds about Tuaupiki playing Fullback because of how weak we are at gaining territory from kicks. Because of TMM's lack of distance on his punt we need to scrap for every metre we can on kick returns & he's a clear 3rd behind RTS & CNK on that front. DWZ would edge him there too

Surely he's had a u-turn since "barely a par reserve grader" 😂

DWZ would disagree, but his HIA looked legit. Bloody inconsistent though when, due to a head knock, Morrin wanted to have a dust up with Jazz but medics didn't interview

Off night tonight but much improved from the player we saw 2019-2022. He's never even been clutch in juniors or reserve grade though. Good supporting half, closer to a Blake Green than a DCE type who steps up when the game is in the balance

Nah spotted him. NRL Play by Play reckons our last sub was in the 84th minute & Lussick replaced AFB

Just out of interest, who was the one uninjured person on the bench at the end? I couldn't work it out

84kg Lussick 98kg Tevaga 101kg Ford 100kg Halasima We better bloody well start with a hiss & a roar

We've only seen him on the other (right) side in first grade but has played a few games there in Cup including a game at #6 where he controlled the left edge

Confirmed by manager

Tbf 4 of the Dogs starting pack have played first grade & 2 more to come off the bench.

Could Luke Hanson be Chris Hipkins' love child from an Australian holiday in the early 2000's?

Makes more sense than carrying Lussick plus a specialist back on the bench

Could be the case. If so, it'll be interesting to see what side CNK lines up on. Pompey may have to switch edges to accommodate him

Either him or Tuaupiki (potentially both) into the 17 to take Bunty's spot

Bunty is confirmed in Cup team so a Halasima debut is all but cemented unless there’s a major reshuffle with Tuaupiki in the 17

There'll be an interview of CHT, presumably a prerecord, on NewsTalk ZB after 2pm today if anyone is interested

Cousins according to Wikipedia

A true reflection of the ladder, removing Byes and focusing on Wins, Draws & Losses, would see the Bulldogs remaining in 6th (with a game in hand) & us in 10th with 1 point separating the sides. If our forwards can get ascendancy we should get enough opportunities to ice the game but if the...
