There is still a few days until we play. But if Green doesn't play who plays at five eighth?

My favorite game of the year is whenever we play the Warriors. All their chip on the shoulder fans start crying on Facebook... and I despise any team that has Isaac Luke in it! Dirty, dirty cousin crippling scumbag.

Vunivalu didn't play for Easts today, should we be reading anything into that? Does anyone know if Young T has failed a fitness test or if it's precautionary?

I have this horrible feeling that Matt White is about to get into the side and never be dropped despite being useless. He didn't play Q Cup either and Felise Kaufusi is playing. I hope I'm wrong.

Mattpoet you could be right regarding White playing because Welch and Tualau both played for Easts Tigers today. White will add experience at least.

Sigh. I'll continue to never understand what Bellamy wants out of his bench players.

Unless it's Nicholls, he's the only other one I can think who may come in. Either that or Vunivalu and Tonumaipea are going to both play and Hampton drops back to the bench. I can't believe Kaufusi was dropped though, thought he was going really well this year.

Nicholls was on injury list as a test for a foot. So he is a possibility but it is not normally the Bellamy way to pick someone coming straight off injury list who hasn't played first grade for Storm.

I didn't say it was likely, just possible
