    @Duluth Hmmm, can't say I'm a fan of it. Obviously the coaches see something there but I haven't seen anything to suggest that he could make it as a 12.

      Yeah I'm not sure about 12 either. It's about making sure the bench utility has game time in all the positions he's covering though. Thinking about contingencies for later in the year

      Evans had a bad game at 15 and he doesn't look great at 13. That essentially rules him out of the utility role unless there are injuries

      Having said that, if everyone is fit maybe Plummer is at 12 and Heem is the bench utility and Lam doesn't make the 23

          This is the real news.

          I thought I heard Stern Vern say a couple of weeks back that Suafoa was back training and ready to play soon. Awesome news!

            @KiwiMurph

            Maybe

            Not sure where the coaches rate some of these guys yet. If they are really happy with Plummer then Perofeta could be a fullback option too.

            Some tough decisions coming up

              Yeah I think a stuff article screwed it up and made it sound like he was leaving the squad

                    Been a settled week weather wise in Melb. Cold in the mornings but should in the be low teens for kick off.

                      He lets a lot go at the breakdowns too.

                      I want to see an improvement in the clean out work from last week. If the ref is allowing shenanigans then we need to move people

                        Outweighed by the apologies for not seeing clear transgressions.

                          Is Ekuasi still with Auckland this year? He'll be keen to have a big game. Particularly in comparison to Segner

                            Carlton vs Collingwood over the road will get close to 100k

                            This game will be lucky to get 1k

                                Tupou chewing gum and no mouth guard, so he had to go of with any head knock, bizarre choice

                                      Blues looking good, but give away penalty by not supporting pick and go. Line out 10m
