    Ponga was my first picked player! He will get a banner this week as he was always going to be my captain until I limped over to the Haas side last week! No complaints, yet.

    Probably the best argument I've heard to separate the two.

    Honestly, Elliot could work his way to a 45-50 but you look and go hang on what did he do? Cotter gets a 45-50 and ya go oh I know why, he had those amazing runs up the middle of the field and busted a bunch of tackles plus made a heap too.

    Also am joining the Lolo party for my last bench spot.
    1. With a BE around 34, I can see him being a 20 minutes each half kind of prop that plods his way to 40’s with the odd attacking stay.
    2. Bench makeup looks pretty good for him
    3. Being a Sunday game if there is a late change (ie. Mikaele
    On for finefuiake) I can change him to Luki.

    That, and when you realise what an absolute shit-fiesta the WFB position is this year and the four best other guys are already locked out and you missed every one of them.

    Just watched the alleged Feinu incident. If Feinu is found guilty of racist comments, what do you think his penalty would be? Have we had something similar in our game before?

    To be fair the guy is thick as sh@%. If you are going to go on camera after the game and you know you did something wrong just don't comment on the incident. Don't say some rubbish like "what is said on the field stays on the field." Confession of guilt you plonker!

    If he wasn't a full time rugby league player this bloke would be in the Centrelink line. Not much going on up there!

    Dude, if you're doing a rant about racism, at least get his name right. It looks terrible.

    Do we think Hosking plays 80 on edge til Whitehead is back or can Smithies potentially take some edge mins off him?

    There were questions above about podcasts and my take on them is that you listen to them all with not only a grain of salt, but a dried up ocean coating your body. If you listen to enough you’ll get a 50/50 split saying Cotric is out next week, Hopoate stays. The other half say the opposite.

    Last podcast I heard tonight was predicting that even before Whitehead is back (I assume… how long is he actually out for?) Horse will be back, play lock and push Smithies out to EDG and Hosking misses out.

    Truth is, no one actually knows; probably not even Ricky himself.

    Catching up on the day and I have to say the most amazing thing about this from Lchy was that it was posted in the Dead Zone-the very last post of a page (00).

    We've all been there when the Thread is going off like a frog in a sock and your personal epiphany doesn't get the love it deserved purely based on its unfortunate placement within the thread heirarchy.

    I’d done similar but couldn’t decide if stashing the cash was any better or worse than putting it on Smithies and hoping for the best. If he tanks, I use him for trades, hoping he doesn’t lose too much, but alternatively, if he’s actually half decent I didn’t miss out. Currently this is the way I’m playing it…. Possibly until I wake up tomorrow.

    Smithies is not an EDG, never has been. It goes to show a lot of these podcasts don't have a clue.

    Any plans for your immortal post? If you pull your finger out, it could happen this year.  Most likely when only WA is awake. Very Happy
