    @bovidae but if they play against one another, how is that keeping a team bubble? I would have thought they are essentially operating one large bubble at multiple locations?

    @taniwharugby The NRL had a lot of player movement in their bubble over the last two seasons. Not sure if they'd allow that here though.

      @dice not suggesting they do it willy nilly, if they are playing against one another, there is no way they can see that as still say a Blues bubble and a Chiefs bubble, so i wouldnt see how the Chiefs 3rd hooker couldnt be available for the Blues if they needed him due to injury (or vice versa)

          Don't think I've seen Plumtree at 8 before, but it's worth trying.

          If he can cover more spots, then it increases his chance of getting a bench spot. He's got the game to be a good impact player off the bench.

            I assume there's no stream of this game?

                      @kiwimurph that sucks, I was just going to comment how good it is Goodhue must be over his, and hoping he has an injury/knock free season, but tempered somewhat now with BB having concussion symptoms.

                        @taniwharugby at least they're cautious. One of the real benefits of central contacting

                            So curious to see how Tuivasa-Sheck goes.
                            The next rugby star or the next Benji Marshall?

                              @frank 100% he will be a success at Super, whether he can make that next step up will be the bigger ask of him, but I reckon he looks to have the skills and mental ability to do it.

                                          I wonder if that affected his play last year.
