If MP can beat Comedy Canes when they are a chance against the Hopeless Highlanders?
-
Canes played terrible and MP got some luck. The same thing is possible.. particularly if there is a red card or two
However the Highlanders haven't been playing awful. Plus they won't take this game lightly because of the position on the table. Part of the problem for the Canes was arrogance, not taking shots for goal etc
-
I believe the Canes were paying $1.01 when they lost.

Quite a few guys back for MP, but missing Stowers, McRobbie, Fomai and Visinia. You'd think they'll be playing the Tuesday game.
Looking forward to the Funaki vs Frizell match-up. Funaki's been one of my favorite players to watch this season.
-
@bovidae I know brown is usually keen on "experience" but I'm glad Ma'u and Koroi are in the 23 over Honeck and Banks respectively , not very familiar with max hicks hope he goes alright!
-
@bovidae Do you know if Thwaites, Caird, Hammington or Tikoisolomone were available? Seems odd none of them in the 23.
-
@arhs No idea. What I posted was copied from the Stuff article. The official media release doesn't mention any other players that are unavailable either.

why is it odd? i dont think any have even played this year, hammington clearing the third choice 9 and he would be the closest to playing
-
@arhs Apparently Caird caught Covid and was taking a bit to recover.
I believe the Highlanders had called Liam Hallam-Eames in to cover him, but he caught covid pretty soon after arriving in camp.
-
@kiwiwomble exactly. None have been used and with no public comments on unavailability. Seemed like a good time to give the odd player a run and rest others. Only Hicks used here.

hardly odd though, still without a win so theyre going to stick the best team out there, not several debutants
-
God, commentators already have Frizell’s cock in their mouths.
-
And now he’s down.
Ouch.
-
@gt12 yup night over...
For all his faults he's been one our best...
-
Shannon FrizeLL
-
That was easy. Landers look like they’ve got the good hunt tonight.
-

The duality of man

I have come to the conclusion that Arron Smith can make a shit pack look like a million dollars on the ruck and drive.

But fucking hell, kiddy mistakes! That's what really gets my goat with him... what in tarnation was that kick supposed to achieve other than serve up opposition points?

Knee went a way it shouldn't in the tackle
-
@stargazer look liked he tweaked his knee in 1st movement of play
-
@bones Oh yuck!
-
Tavatavanawai!
No thanks on making that tackle.
-
Tavatavanawai! What a run.
-
Sweeeet try
-
Man MP are rocks and diamonds, but much better than I thought they would be overall
