It was clearly done a while back though, I've seen pictures of Grant and Munster in it and they're in England

Paps definitely did the shoot but of course Storm didn’t show it. That they did with Tui says he’s coming back imo because if he wasn’t he wouldn’t have been shown.

Can't argue with that logic sadly... :?

Wish we'd put the $$ for Tui into a different front row fwd.

Would Keaon Koloamatangi be an option. However, he's asking for NAS money.

I'd give him NAS money. Not Haas money, but certainly NAS. He's a good player who could be very good with us.

I've been disappointed with tui as much as everyone else the last couple of years. But at this point I just kind of trust that Bellamy is picking our best side. I find the defensive systems the one that's difficult to assess ie what forward suits team best)

If he stays I don't think it's the end of the world with him being on a cut rate as per reports.

I think the moment in gf we'll going to remember forever (nothing tops in my mind chambers in 2016 gf) but I also think hes a big slow prop so it didn't shock me he stuffed it up and I doubt his chased many last play kicks in his life.

Thing I took out of his drop, and not so much the drop, but the way Walsh threw himself in there, the desperation on his behalf was there for all to see. (I feel very dirty praising him, might need to go and disinfect myself now)

I'm happy for Tui. Make him captain of the reserve grade team.

Agreed, and we didn't see the same desperation by us at the other end. The effort by paps or lack of for one of Shibasaki trys summed it up.

Smithy ffs. It's just one blow after another atm isnt it. Could do with some good news. Surely our biggest test since the cap scandal finding a way to be a challenger in 26

really don't think they're even slightly close to the same thing.

Bit of a nightmare month or so for us none the less

Forgetting the Smith thing, I reckon everything else has been orchestrated by the club, I don't think there's been a single surprise to those in the know.
