The thing I don't get is why Edwards is in more trouble for the alleged incident than Pritchard?

I mean, if a player is handed a urine sample bottle and told to wee in it, and then the wee comes back belonging to someone else, surely the first player has primary/equal responsbility for that?
Especially if it came back clean.

Play for Souths and bash your missus and you only get 9 months.

The best second-rowers aren't heavy, they're light enough to be aggressive in defence and play long minutes. Manu's at the right weight for his style.

So if Pritchard is in the poo as well - we have 3 players who are under a suspension cloud to start the year?? f**king great.

Yeah I know is the Lurker and probably crap:

. The Jarryd Hayne NFL dream has been de-railed for now amid whispers the former Parramatta star is proving a distracting figure in the locker room.
According to my US spy, Hayne has been carrying on with some schoolboy antics that haven’t exactly endeared him to head 49ers coach Jim Tomsula and some players.
Word keeps getting louder and louder that he will return to the NRL sooner rather than later.
It will be intriguing to see how this one plays out

I heard the same thing about 2 weeks ago. Not that he was carrying on but rather that he was unhappy and there was never a better chance to get him back until now.

I'm thinking the complete media circus over a fringe player in the team contributed to The Plane's removal from the 53 man squad also.

Come home Hayne, get a multi million dollar contract, win a premiership with the eels and become a true league great ..... seriously he must be one determined dude to be hanging around in the NFL, with at best getting a few touches each game.

True most aren't a lot heavier then he is. But BA has said it a few times he wants Manu to put on 3-4 more kgs..
From training photos I have seen it looks like he has bulked up quite a bit.

That Lurker rumour was started by a merkin who claimed he had video evidence of a rift in the 49ers camp. He showed a video grab of Hayne going up to the QB, saying something and then the QB brushed him. The poster suggested that this was "proof" that the 49ers had no respect for Hayne and that Hayne was acting like a spoilt brat.

That sort of rubbish join the dots journalism should be left to New Idea. Lurker is an embarrassment to his profession.

I read something like that in one of the comments section on the SF Instagram. Hayne went to high 5 Gabbert after the game but Gabbert walked straight past.

I cant see anything but a second hooker on the bench. Id be very surprised if this isn't Pritchard. Ive heard comments even this early in the pre season about Pritchards fitness and him leading from the front. Word has it that BA is also a huge fan.

There is no need to have two hookers in the 17 because we don't need 80 minutes of attacking hookers playing in a game. Giving our 9 a 10 minute break in a game is all that's required. We should have 4 forwards (with size - you know what I mean) on the bench, one who is a utility. The bench must all be able to defend well with at least two of them being good attackers/off loaders/etc. In this way we have much more stability and besides a batch of seriously injured players coming off, we can handle whatever transpires.
