Wish Kasiano got more just so I didn't have to see him for a few weeks.

So we are up against the bye this week. Given how we have been playing, I'm not sure we will get the two points here.

I've heard a rumour that the bye has been stripped of its points for paying Todd Greenberg under the table. :lol:

I'm running with the thought that your tongue is firmly embedded in your cheek there yourhero... but as a general vibe at times this year on here, why is there a feeling that the sky has fallen in on the Club?

On the back of an unbelievable year last year, we lost 3 x Internationals, followed by a severely interrupted off-season with world cup players returning in January etc.. then we lost Jesse for an extended period injured, Finucane for a couple, Glasby for a couple... after all that we're sitting 6th (2 wins off the top) with a strong points difference (boosted by ANZAC Day I appreciate)...

We have been nowhere near as consistent as we're used to, but that's hardly the sky is falling in territory for a footy side surely ??? ???

Have already seen the result. The bye targeted a returning Brodie Croft and he let in 5 tries. He also dropped 6 kicks while also getting caught up in an on field confrontation with Cameron Smith.

Were you watching the same game I was? That third try was a blatant forward pass and the bye's five eighth was offside all game!

And Kasiano was reported again for a late hit on the winger. Think his name was Fly Bye.

Yeah, he heard the winger got a meat pie and took it literally.

The Young Tonumaipea hat-trick was impressive given he scored two off them while he was on the bench.

Hey, wait a second folks.

I just looked it up on google and a bye means we actually don't play this week and get a weeks rest.
