BOP 2025

Well the backline seemed to run smoothly with last season's wingers in the middle and last season's centre on the wing. Encouraging that we looked dangerous on attack as well as resilient on defence. As usual we will need a good run with injuries and ABs call-ups (I notice Leroy is injury cover for the ABs) and we should make the 8, hopefully the top 4 and maybe pushing for the top 2. Suspect Ta$man will improve as the season goes on so it could have been a decent time to play them.

@KiwiPie All good points but (being forever the pessimist) I'm not getting too excited just yet. I think its far to early to judge the merits of that win till we see how we play without Leroy and Emoni and see how Ta$man perform as the season progresses. There's still plenty to be pleased about though ! I see the TAB rates us now third after Ta$man and Canterbury . We were Fifth before the season started . You have to be pleased how the team has progressed over the last few years though. It wasn't that long ago when we were getting beaten by most teams and now are genuine title contenders. I will bask on that thought after that win.
