[Duluth]

Sunday 4:35pm - McLean Park

[Number 10]

Counties Manukau should be defending the Bruce Robertson Trophy in this match.

[DurryMexted]

Be interesting how the backs are selected for Hawkes Bay. See if they stick with McClutchie or start using Godfrey more at 10. Also where Zarn Sullivan ends up playing.

Why is Ioane Moananu not starting?

Hopefully he'll be on the plane to Argentina.

Still unusual given he was released, and only had minimal minutes throughout July, but maybe plans have changed.

[Duluth]

Papalii might be missing for paternity leave? He posted something ages ago about a baby being due in August

[Stockcar86]

I have been impressed by Enari this afternoon - a lot quicker and more accurate service than I remember

[Higgins]

He must have something going for him if he can keep Folau Fakatava on the bench!

[Stockcar86]

Cooper Flanders > Sam Smith

Missed the game but good to hear. He was excellent for the Canes at 10 before injury. Seems to be getting better and better.
