    Well obviously I didn't read any of the posts above so have no context for the discussion. 😉

    I think it was a tour to the NH when he maybe played half a game but stayed on tour (could be 100% wrong on that I just remember Zinny calling him that).

        @nepia Yeah, I was going to mention Brooke, and I think that is how the term started, i.e., getting free food/accommodation but not training or playing.

            He's had a heavy workload, but the thought of running out a backline with no DMac or ALB in Sydney doesn't sound like much fun...

                    I think/hope we can get away with Tupaea and Nankivell.

                    I think Sullivan is also officially a midfielder if we want to go crazy ( @Bovidae is that right)

                    The biggest thing is getting the bench right - we dont want Tupaea finishing the game on the wing.

                    Up front, I really hope they sent over Moli, Ah Kuoi and Finau or none of it will matter...

                      @gt12 Bailyn has mostly been a centre but does show good potential as a wing

                        @gt12 Wainui is over there too so would likely be on the bench if ALB doesn't play.

                        I don't think Moli is in Sydney but Ross will be back from his rest.

                              Nope, annoyingly had something on at the time as both the time and getting to venue is much nicer than this weeks game at Brookvale.

                                    Is sowakula leaving?, I saw an article that he had resigned for next year but there is some rumours that he could be leaving and judging by one of his Instagram posts it could be true

                                      @cliff He has signed through to 2023. I think his instagram posts are just referring to the end of the season and players leaving for their NPC provinces.

                                        But tough on Roe, thought he ended up being pretty good. No memory of even seeing Poihipi on the park!
