Fus to FB Patch "Mr UPPERS" moves in/back to centre and Purple Hayze on the wing..
Kearney has his favourites and Pulu has been designated "Turkish Delight".
Apt because he's wobbly in the middle.
Pulu will get his chance this year, we are too short of forwards for him not to. Hasn’t been the same though since breaking his ankle in 2018. If he could somehow get into that sort of form he’d be my choice to be the other edge forward with Harris.
Would love to see Katoa given that last spot on the bench. 15-20 minutes out there would be great for his development. Tevaga will get that spot when he comes back so it’s a good opportunity to see where Katoa is at after some good moments in the trials.

I remember Ali getting small dose's when he first came on the scene.
Didn't know much about Ali when he came along,just remember a game against Parra when Ali was involved with what could of become a try still on the highlight reels today like his set up for Stacey against the Broncos.
Not saying Katoa is going to be like Ali,but it has been a while since we had a player with that Ali,TRex,Kikau game breaking presence.
Would love to see Katoa bled in from round one too.
If it's true that Katoa has only played 5 games of league before, then I'd rather he got some big minutes in reserve grade first.
1 - Fus
2 - Ken
3 - Hiku
4 - Herbert
5 - Pompey (if he's still alive? Haven't heard or seen anything of him)
If Pompey is injured/cut/whatever then wouldn't mind giving someone like Turner a run on the wing. Rather that than trying to force Hayze to become Lolohea 2.0 by playing him wherever there's a spot on the field.
Pompey didn't play in the reserve grade side against Counties either - not sure what's going on with him.

Hiku will almost certainly be fullback in the absence of rts
Hiku did an admiral job there last year

RTS would be a huge loss, in saying that. Fullback is a relatively easy position to cover.
I second this, he has done a half decent job in the past filling in at fullback and would allow Hayze or one of the many other backline players to fill in at centre....
So naturally SK will move a backrower to centre instead..
Lucky for us Kearney has made a squad with only Harris as a backrower, so he will have to play a back there. Hiku to fullback and Hayze to center would be my pick as Pompey seems to be off the radar. I’d like to see Hayze thrown in the deep end and see how he goes.

mt.wellington Hello Gentlemen,
Would you be able to post the pre game chatter immediately or as soon as possible for the New Castle game next weekend.
I know normally it comes out on a Monday or something but there is no game this weekend and many of us would be into examining New Castle's lineup and dissecting the key match ups.
Basically we want to talk about the match now if possible?????
It is only 8 days away or so....
How about it...
Not sure where to put this, So we're all go for 24th of May. All non Sydney clubs will relocate to Sydney. Training starts May the 4th.
Not sure if this is the right thread to post.
I haven't been on here for a while so not sure if it has already been talked about in depth.
The 4 players leaving, does this seem right to you? I mean, these guys get paid well and they are doing something they love doing. I understand that family is important and for things like family are sick or about to have a child no problem. But if it's just I miss my mum....I mean really?!?!? Are these guys that ungrateful to the club? Are these guys really going to let their brothers in arms down?
My mate thinks it's because they can't go out and party =/

Small children and babies need a lot of support.
it is much easier when both Mum and Dad are around to support each other and look after the kids.
This is the reason they are going home.
Its acceptable they have been away long enough and their wives have probably been putting huge pressure on them to return.
