See the problem with not updating the team on the website is you never know who is actually dropped.

Just thinking maybe Stimson in because better suited to second row than Tui. Felise might need a rest during game following Origin.

Perenara needs to get over the fact that Bellamy didn't want him in 2003. Serious cheat!

Hook Croft. Honestly... Ample chances and cannot do anything right at the moment. Painful to watch.

The shitty grubber kick Croft put in after getting the ball basically sums up who he's been the last season and a bit. No conviction whatsoever. He's not making things happen. Too passive.
Smith must have seen Nikorima on the short side in the lead up to the try. Was a smart bit of play.

Not hooked but a HIA, so we get the same result. I like Paps at the back and Jahrome at half on the right.

Brilliant play from Smith. That one armed flick back behind the ruck - beautiful.

Suck sh*t Isaac Luke. You take a clear dive like that and you deserve to be embarrassed. Let his team down there with that b*tch move.

Not that our right edge hasn't been diabolical this year, but, Fox Sports didn't need to sensationalise the stats pre game. 17 out of 23 is 74%, no need to round it up to 80%, 74% is bad enough surely.

That was nothing short of exceptional.
Completely professional, composed and clinical.
Loved the efforts from the forwards and couldn’t ask more from the backs.
A 92 per cent completion rate is insane.
