          @yeetyaah I'm looking forward to seeing how much PPP has bulked up! His height alone should worry the Canes, though!

                              Youโ€™ve just got more sway and clout when it comes to critiquing players obviously.

                                  Actually, what I did was post a picture of Arya Stark and the Hound captioned something like "Bones telling Pari Pari he needs to bulk up".

                                  I thought it was vaguely funny.

                                  You apparently didn't.

                                  Which tempts me to look for a photo of Arya and The Mountain! ๐Ÿ™‚

                                    @chris-b you did that after saying he was soooo ginormous! He doesn't need to!

                                    I think @MN5 thought it was funny, so that probably tells you enough ๐Ÿ˜

                                                good news is Nareki is avaliable....but they seem to have mixed Ioane and hunt up ๐Ÿค” maybe this will work better than ioane at 12

                                                good to see Vahaakolo getting a game but CGB has been good so not sure why hes not starting

                                                where the hell is Alaimalo?

                                                Evans starting? where is shelby-ricket?

                                                not confident

                                                                its like we're telling him, you didn't single handedly beat the best rugby team in the comps history so your out

                                                                not a lot of height in that back line

                                                                                Highlanders are using a lot of squad rotation.

If Love is going to replace Leger, why not give him the 22 jersey?
