Expecting to hear from either Pacey or Finchy soon after the final team lists for tonight's Roosters v Bulldogs game have been released, so I went looking for this thread, but I had trouble finding it because the name of the thread has been changed.

Why is it no longer called the Pacey v Finchy thread? Who changed the title? This is an outage! Is nothing sacred?

Agreed completely bypassed this thread because I was looking for the Pacey v Finch thread.

Agreed, someone's head needs to roll!

Actually it's probably to get more hits when people are googling.

Shirley we achieve that and still have Pacey v Finchy mentioned.

For example:

Can't see why not, will find out the reason behind the change first.

Actually it was changed last weekend to establish the twitter feed, I think...............

Or just shorten it to pacey's, Finchy doesn't usually wake up until the 3rd game of the round
