Absolutely. He was poor earlier in the season, but has been much better in recent weeks. His confidence is high

Big thing for Coates is to continue to do the small things right and to have fewer mental errors. Defensively he’s still way way off though so who knows there.

He’s definitely playing with more confidence now which is nice. We know what he can’t do but it’s good to see him contribute in his own way.

Really would not surprise me if Munster is given a week off with Pezet the obvious replacement.

Between his illness pre Origin and the knee issue after we'll want him to be in good health for the finals.

Radley and Warea-Hargreaves both escape with fines. Warea-Hargreaves in particular irks me, they're calling it an attempted trip - it was a kick

That would be fine if Jonah wasn’t ducking injured again …

Then we potentially need to give Nikorima a go (even off the bench) just in case we need him later
