Is Tosi injured ? He could have brought more dynamism to the BoP pack.
BoPRU although their social media has been remarkably good this year have been just as consistenty terrible about injury anouncements.
BOP have 3 games in 8 days, so it could be that some were rested and will start Wednsday or it could be injured, no way of knowing at this stage

Was a great game to be at. Plenty of young talent and skills on display.
Apart from a distinct lack of ability to clear the ball from under pressure, some of the young kids did pretty well all things considering.
For all the sh*t Leroy Carter got for dropping balls (probably should be more maligned for tackles without arms), the enthusiasm and work rate was intense. Need to keep in mind he is primarily a half back been forced to play out of position. Quite happy with his output

The really frustrating thing is him being forced to play on the wing with an actual wing on the bench. I don't blame Carter - I think Gibson has just completely lost the plot

I agree, not the first team Gibson has ruined but I thought he might be ok at NPC level... jokes on me I guess. I hope since Campbell has now gone to Japan, he at least gets one game at half back.

Is Campbell injured too, or one of the many who have had to leave for overseas contracts?
I reckon you could make a very good combined BOP/Waikato XV from the players who didn't play in this game.
Another gone to EDIT : France, other team mates Japan
